The new card is the English version of a Japanese Aura Seeker design, part of the Flowing Fists set arriving February 2027.
Updated on Nov. 8, 2026 in Board Games
The Pokémon Trading Card Game revealed a new Mega Lucario Z ex card design as the featured poster Pokémon for its first 2027 set, Flowing Fists. The set is an English adaptation of the Japanese expansion Aura Seeker, which releases in Japan on November 27.
Why it matters
The card's combat stats and Aura Seeker ability are expected to bring powerful new options to competitive play. Collectors and players gain an early look at the set's standout design ahead of its English release.
The Mega Lucario Z ex has 330 HP, and its Dancing Fist attack costs two Steel-type Energy to deal 120+ damage, with an extra 120 damage against a Pokémon ex. Its Aura Seeker ability searches the deck for a Supporter card once per turn while the card is Active.

The details
PokéBeach highlighted the card design alongside other cards from the set. The Aura Seeker ability reveals a Supporter card from the deck and adds it to the hand, once per turn while Mega Lucario Z ex is in the Active Spot.
Timeline
November 2026: Delta Reign expansion released for the Pokémon TCG.
November 27, 2026: Aura Seeker releases in Japan.
Late November 2026: More Flowing Fists information expected.
February 2027: Flowing Fists arrives in English.
Season Trajectory
Flowing Fists follows the Pokémon TCG's established practice of adapting Japanese expansions such as Aura Seeker for English-speaking players several months after their Japanese release. The set's standout card suggests the company continues to use poster Pokémon to anchor major expansions.
Players planning to build competitive decks should watch for the Mega Lucario Z ex and its Supporter-searching ability when the set arrives in February 2027. Collectors can plan purchases around the English release timeline rather than the earlier Japanese release.
The takeaway
Watch for the full Flowing Fists card list in late November, since the Mega Lucario Z ex could shape how competitive decks are built once the English set arrives.
What happens next
More Flowing Fists information is expected in late November 2026, following the Aura Seeker release in Japan on November 27, and the English set arrives in February 2027.
