Samurott VSTAR Rainbow 197/189

This is Samurott VSTAR from Astral Radiance, the Rainbow version numbered 197/189. Because the first number is higher than the set total of 189, this card sits in the secret rare run, the extended numbering that falls beyond the main checklist and houses an expansion's premium cards.

The VSTAR mechanic builds on the V cards of the Sword and Shield era, adding a powerful once per game VSTAR ability or attack. The Rainbow tag marks this as a rainbow rare, one of the most recognisable premium finishes in the modern game, applying a textured multicoloured holo across the whole card. Combined with the secret rare numbering, that gives Samurott VSTAR a showcase quality finish.

Rainbow VSTAR cards are favourites among collectors who value both the prestige rarity and the eye catching foil, and they often round out a full set chase. For collectors completing Astral Radiance or focusing on the Samurott line, this rainbow VSTAR is a strong pickup.
