Hyper rare card (TCG)

Hyper rare (Japanese: ウルトラレア Ultra Rare) is a type of rarity in the Pokémon Trading Card Game, introduced in the Scarlet & Violet expansion. They are Full Art Secret cards that showcase Pokémon, items, stadiums, and both basic and special energy on gilded cards with gold backgrounds. Prior to the introduction of the hyper rare rarity, such cards were often classified as secret rares.
Hyper rare cards are gilded holographic reprints of chase Pokémon from the same set, or reprints of commonly played item or energy cards, that were printed though not necessarily originating from the same set. Hyper rare cards feature an additional layer of glitter foil and can be identified through having three gold stars () as their rarity symbol. The Asian equivalent of which is the ultra rare rarity denoted by UR (
) rarity symbol.
