The Charizard VSTAR (Rainbow) 174/172 in context
Why collectors care
The Charizard VSTAR rainbow rare closes out Brilliant Stars past the set total. Rainbow rares were the top rarity tier of the Sword and Shield era, and the Charizard is the most demanded of them.
How to identify it
Number 174/172 from Brilliant Stars (2022), a rainbow secret rare numbered beyond the printed set size. Distinct from the Charizard V alternate art at 154/172.
Common mistakes
Confusing rainbow rares with alternate arts -- they are different rarity treatments at different price points. The rainbow has the pastel multi-color foil across the whole card.
Grade considerations
Rainbow foil shows scratches and print lines readily, and centering on the textured surface is strictly judged. Gem rates are low.
