Shiny rare card (TCG)
Shiny rare is a type of rarity in the Pokémon Trading Card Game, introduced in the Hidden Fates expansion, though the rarity was heavily redefined in the Paldean Fates expansion. Shiny rare cards are a variant of holographic cards that showcase Pokémon in their shiny forms. These cards are also Secret cards and can be identified through having a hollowed out gold stars (
