Hi there. I present my thoughts on this Mega Victreebel reveal, the Team Rocket's Moltres ex Ultra Premium Collection, and Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex Pokemon TCG products.
Mega Victreebel Reveal
From the upcoming Legends Z-A game, there is a reveal of Mega Victreebel.

The mouth of Mega Victreebel is closed and is filled with acid. Video below.

I think the design of Mega Victreebel looks okay. My one issue with it is that it does not look Mega to me. The height looks the same. It could have been larger or something.
Team Rocket's Moltres ex Ultra Premium Collection
The Team Rocket's Moltres ex Ultra Premium Collection will release in November 2025 with a suggested price of 119.99 USD. With scalpers these days, the price of this could easily reach 200 USD.
You get 18 booster packs, one playmat, one deck box, a coin, 6 damage counter dice, a coin-flip die, two condition markers (burn & poison), one code card, one copy of the regular TR Moltres ex card, full art version and the special illustration rare card.
It is not common to get a special illustration rare card in a sealed product. The existence of this product makes it easier for collectors but it also reduces the price of the Moltres cards.

This sealed Ultra Premium Collection looks like a good alternative to booster boxes. You don't get as many packs as a booster box but you get art cards plus a bunch of packs. The only issue is finding availability for this and higher prices due to demand and scalpers.
Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex League Battle Deck Releases In November 2025
A Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex deck is to release in November 2025. The suggested price is 30 USD. The known information at the time of writing is that the 6 cards on the front are:
- x3 Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex
- x2 Team Rocket's Crobat ex
- x1 ACE SPEC Scramble Switch

This deck product is listed as a level 3 product. Level 3 is the highest level in terms of deck competitiveness out of the box. There is no full decklist yet. Based on the 6 cards so far, this deck does not seem very good. As of August 2025, Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex is not an awful deck but it is not competitive at the highest level. In addition, no one really uses Team Rocket's Crobat ex.
There is a chance that a Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex deck could be better once the G regulation mark cards and popular decks go away. Once Gholdengo ex decks, Charizard ex and Gardevoir ex decks go away, then maybe there is room for Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex decks to be very good.
