A rumored LEGO Pokémon set could cost more than a Nintendo Switch 2 with Pokémon Legends: Z-A

The LEGO Pokémon collection coming out in 2026 features an expensive set, according to unofficial leaks. This rumored Pokémon set would have 6,838 pieces at a price point of $649.99, which is $150 more than buying an actual Pokémon game, Legends: Z-A, bundled with the Nintendo Switch 2 for $499.99.

This expensive LEGO Pokémon set hasn’t been revealed by official sources, but the lack of information didn’t stop fans from speculating why the set has more than 6,800 pieces. Fans from the Lego Leak subreddit guess it could be anything from a specific Pokémon’s Mega Evolution, an evolution form central to Legends: Z-A, to a set with minifigures for all the original 151 Pokémon. I tremble in fear just thinking about what scalpers would do to the LEGO stock if the minifigures theory turned out to be right.

The price of this massive LEGO Pokémon set isn’t confirmed either. The numbers come from an alleged leak shared in that same Lego Leaks subreddit, a source that’s generally trusted by LEGO collectors who want early information on upcoming sets. If this 6,800-piece behemoth really costs $649.99, it will be the fifth most-expensive set in the LEGO Store today, just behind the 9,090-piece LEGO Titanic and slightly ahead of the 10,001-piece Eiffel Tower.

Two smaller LEGO Pokémon sets are reported to be released alongside the large one. The cheapest of all would be $59.99 and feature 587 pieces, while the medium would be $199.99 and come with 2,050 pieces. What Pokémon or characters these rumored sets will come with is still a mystery.

The potentially high price point of the LEGO Pokémon collection shows how niche it could be. While collectors will surely kill to get their hands on these sets, regular Pokémon fans like myself will probably keep the price comparison with the Switch 2 and Legends: Z-A bundle in mind.

I can’t wait to see what LEGO sets are coming out in this Pokémon partnership, but I’ll probably save my money for the actual Pokémon games.
