Prism Star (TCG)

Prism Star cards are a card variant found in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Unlike other card variations, Prism Star cards can be Pokémon, Supporter, Special Energy, or Stadium cards. They were first introduced in the Ultra Prism expansion. Prism Star cards feature the symbol next to the card title.

An example of a Pokémon card

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 symbol.

Unlike other cards, players cannot have any duplicate copies of a Prism Star card in their deck. However, the symbol is part of the card's name, so one player can have 4 Volcanion cards and 1 Volcanion card in the same deck. Additionally, when a Prism Star card would otherwise go the discard pile, it goes to the Lost Zone instead.
