Melmetal VMAX 080/078

Melmetal VMAX comes from the Pokemon Go set, a Sword and Shield era collaboration that brought the mobile game's themes into the trading card game. Melmetal is the evolution of Meltan, the small mythical Pokemon first introduced through Pokemon Go, which gives this card a direct tie to the set's source material.

This is the 080/078 print, and because the first number is higher than the set total of 78, it is a secret rare. It carries the Rainbow finish, the colourful textured treatment reserved for the secret rare slots at the very end of a set. The VMAX mechanic represents the Dynamax form of a Pokemon, giving the card very high HP and a powerful attack, building on its V stage.

Between the Rainbow styling, the VMAX power level and its connection to the Pokemon Go theme, this is one of the standout chase cards from the set and a clear target for collectors completing the run.
