Prism Star cards have black borders and various areas of the card design have rainbow tinges added to them, such as the corners of the attack text box and character window. The background of the card text area also features the {{Prism Star}} symbol. The artwork for Prism Star cards always shows the subject with a glow. The glow is usually but not always fire-like.

The Prism Star rule, contained within a [[Rule Box]], says that players cannot have any duplicate copies of a Prism Star card in their deck. However, the {{Prism Star}} symbol is part of the card's name, so one player can have 4 Volcanion cards and 1 Volcanion {{Prism Star}} card in the same deck. Additionally, the Prism Star rule also says when a Prism Star card would otherwise go the discard pile, it goes to the {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Lost Zone}} instead. Since cards can never leave the Lost Zone and only one copy of a Prism Star card can be in a deck, this usually means that a Prism Star card can only be played once per game.
