Google Trends, worldwide web search, weekly. One request per group of five terms; the second group is rescaled to the first using Delta Reign, which is in both. Values are relative (100 = the highest week in the comparison). Updated October 15, 2026.
The most discussed topic by far. Pre-orders sold out in about an hour on September 30, queues stalled, and bot accounts posted orders far above the limits. Many hope Pokémon Center cancels those orders, as it has before.
Reveals keep the hype up: Zorua and Enamorus illustration rares, a new Trainer card people call the best-looking of the block, and Legendary Stadium pairs that players expect to see in the meta.
Coming straight after the 30th Celebration set, some collectors ask whether they still have the budget or appetite, and whether pull rates will feel “normal” again.
Weekly market reports in October show most sets drifting down. Investors debate whether to hold Delta Reign sealed or wait for post-release dips.
