Rainbow Rare

Also known as: Hyper Rare, Rainbow, RR

A Rainbow Rare is a Secret Rare Pokémon card featuring a spectacular multicolor hyper-rainbow foil treatment across the entire card, giving it an appearance similar to a prism or gemstone. Introduced in the Sun & Moon era, Rainbow Rares quickly became beloved for their visual impact. They typically depict GX, V, or VMAX Pokémon and are found approximately once per two booster boxes. Despite their beauty, some collectors prefer alternate art versions of the same cards, creating interesting price dynamics in the market.
