The 10 Most Expensive Rainbow Rare Pokémon Cards on Amazon in 2024
Now, I know what you're thinking: Rainbow Pokémon cards in 2024? I didn't think that was possible, and you would be right. The Pokémon TCG actually completely removed the Rainbow Pokémon card rarity from the list of Pokémon card rarities following the end of the Sun & Moon and Sword & Shield eras (2017-2023). The Pokémon Company has not mentioned any new information regarding the re-release of rainbow Pokémon cards, and since Sword & Shield Silver Tempest, they have not printed a single rainbow rare Pokémon card.

As a collector, this gets me excited because when Pokémon cards stop getting printed, we all know that values can skyrocket. Let's be honest – who doesn't like to see the value of their collection increase? I sure do! So, my team and I at TCG Review have gone through every single rainbow Pokémon card on Amazon and compiled a list of the top 10 most expensive rainbow rare Pokémon cards you can get on Amazon in 2024, so you don't have to!
#10 Palkia GX - 132/131 - Secret Rare - Forbidden Light
- Rare Card: This is a rare Palkia GX card from the Forbidden Light set
- Multicolor Design: Features a multicolor rainbow design that looks great displayed

Starting us off is none other than Palkia GX. If you are a fan of Diamond & Pearl, you already know who Palkia is! This Spatial Pokémon, said to live between parallel worlds and open portals anywhere at will, comes in at our number 10 spot, being the cheapest card on the list. Nonetheless, it is still a beautiful card, and we can easily see why. If you are a fan of Palkia and want it in your collection, the Palkia GX Rainbow Rare Pokémon card is definitely a steal with a current price point of $47.89.

The number nine spot goes to Raichu GX from Shining Legends, and we are not surprised at all. Shining Legends was one of my personal favorite sets to open, and I was lucky enough to get this card. Let me tell you, it looks even better in person! With a current price point of $49.75, if you are a fan of Raichu and love rainbow cards, this is a no-brainer. The card is absolutely fantastic for a personal collection or as a gift!

Coming in at number eight is Mew VMAX from Fusion Strike, and we'll be honest, we weren't surprised. The sheer amount of Mew cards is always increasing, but man, the rainbow rare Mew VMAX really takes the cake when it comes to power. The fact that it's just an adorable Mew card to own adds to its appeal. It currently sits around $56.95 on Amazon, with other listings reaching as high as $68.00. We aren't psychic like Mew, but for that price, it seems like a steal!

From this point on, all the rainbow rare Pokémon cards we found that are still listed on Amazon dramatically start increasing in price, and you can probably see why! Ranking at number seven on the list is Mewtwo Vstar, while we just covered Mew VMAX. Mewtwo VStar really is just a phenomenal card, with only one current listing around $79.94. If you are interested, this would be something to pick up quite quickly as it seems it is in very high demand!
#6 Pokemon Card Japanese Eevee & Snorlax GX SM9-115/095 HR
- Rare Card: This is a rare Japanese Eevee & Snorlax GX from TAG TEAM SM9

- Pokemon Brand: From the popular Pokemon brand known for fun trading cards
We are almost halfway done, and let me tell you, when we saw this card on Amazon, it was honestly kind of surprising. Our number six spot goes to the Japanese Eevee & Snorlax GX from TAG TEAM SM9. While this is not the English version of the card, which goes for significantly more, the Japanese Eevee & Snorlax GX still goes for a good amount, with a current price point of $80.00 and only a couple left in stock. This is definitely a treasure I would add to my collection!
#5 Pokemon Sylveon-GX - 158/145 - Secret Rare - Sun & Moon: Guardians Rising

This is it, the halfway point, and the prices are only going to keep getting even higher! At number five, we have Sylveon GX from Sun & Moon: Guardians Rising. Now, this card is just awesome. If you are a fan of the different Eevee variations and want to add a special one to your personal collection, getting the Sylveon GX Rainbow Rare Pokémon card is a must! With a current price point of $95.00, this card is definitely on the higher end, but if you are a true Eevee collector we highly recommend getting a copy!
#4 Reshiram & Zekrom Tag Team GX - 259/236 - Secret Rare SM Cosmic Eclipse
- A single individual card from the Pokemon trading and collectible card game (TCG/CCG).
- This is of Secret Rare rarity.
- This is from the SM Cosmic Eclipse set.
We are finally at number four with Reshiram & Zekrom Tag Team GX taking the spot, and man, is this a special card and honestly quite unique. Most collectors and players haven't even seen this card, making it all the more reason to add it to your collection. With a current price point of $99.00, it is another card that seems to have limited stock, and as a personal collector, I didn't even know it existed. But I am probably going to pick one up quite soon because it really does just look spectacular; the artwork flows so smoothly!
#3 Pokemon Team Up Pikachu & Zekrom GX - 184/181 - Secret Rare
- Rare Card: This is a rare Pikachu & Zekrom GX from the Pokémon Sun & Moon Team Up set
- Multicolor Design: Features a multicolor rainbow design that looks great displayed

Top three has arrived, and with it comes Pikachu & Zekrom GX from Sun & Moon Team Up. The Team Up set has some of the coolest rainbow rare Pokémon cards in the game and really just sets the bar higher when it comes to rainbow Pokémon cards. Pikachu & Zekrom GX is unbelievably strong as well as just another solid staple in any collection. With a current price point of $103.00, we have finally broken into the triple digits. If you love Pikachu, this card is a solid pick-up, and we really don't think you can go wrong.
#2 Gengar & Mimikyu GX - 186/181 - Secret Rare - Team Up
- Rare Card: This is a rare Gengar & Mimikyu GX card from the Sun & Moon Team Up set.

Just like that, we have reached number two on our list! Time is flying! This, in my personal opinion, and for most of the team at TCG Review, is the best rainbow rare Pokémon in the entire card game! We might be biased, but when we found a listing on Amazon to be able to purchase this card, we immediately jumped in and knew you guys needed to see it! Gengar & Mimikyu GX from Team Up is an unbelievably cool card. If you collect Pokémon cards in any shape or form and have the funds, I highly recommend purchasing one of these cards for your collection. However, this card does have a steep price point, sitting at $279.99, and it is definitely one of the rarer rainbow Pokémon cards. If you love Gengar or just want a very rare card, this is the card for you without a doubt!
#1 Charizard-GX - 150/147 - Secret Rare
- Rare Card: This is a rare Charizard GX card from the Sun & Moon Burning Shadows

Number one is here, and yes, this is the biggest hitter. If you are in the Pokémon trading card scene in any capacity, you know what this card is. If you are new, this is basically the best rainbow Pokémon card you can get your hands on. The Charizard GX from Sun & Moon Burning Shadows is absolutely outstanding, although I personally prefer Gengar & Mimikyu. If you are looking for a collector's piece or just really want to own the most expensive rainbow Pokémon card in the game, Charizard GX is for you. This Charizard GX currently sits on Amazon for $798.25, making it without a doubt the most expensive rainbow rare Pokémon card you can buy!
