Important Note on "Mega" (formerly Mega Bloks)
For years, Mega (owned by Mattel) held the exclusive building toy license for Pokémon. While Mega continues to produce its own line of Pokémon sets (often focused on playability and "action" features), the new LEGO partnership marks a shift toward high-fidelity, collector-grade "System" brick sets.
