Information

The Steven Rival Battle Deck focuses on Steven Stone, Beldum, and Metagross. Its two highlight cards are Steven's Beldum and Steven's Metagross ex, the former of which is included as both a standard card and an illustration rare card. It is the international equivalent to the Japanese ex Starter Set Steven's Beldum & Metagross ex product, which was released in Japan on February 21, 2025.

It features a 60-card preconstructed deck, a set of damage counters, a large metallic coin, a deck box, a double-sided playmat and strategy sheet, and a Pokémon Trading Card Game Live code card. It was released on the same day as the Marnie Rival Battle Deck.
