Cheryl Trainer Rainbow 173/163

Cheryl Trainer Rainbow 173/163 is a Trainer card from Battle Styles, a Sword and Shield era expansion. Because the card number (173) sits above the set total (163), this is a secret rare, slotted in beyond the main numbered list and finished in the Rainbow Rare style.

Cheryl is a Supporter Trainer, a character drawn from the Pokemon games who provides a helpful effect when played. The Rainbow Rare version takes the standard Trainer artwork and reworks it with the pastel, multicoloured foil that marks the premium full art versions of these cards. Rainbow full art Trainers are popular for the way they present a single character in a polished, collectable finish.

Collectors look for cards like Cheryl Rainbow to complete a Battle Styles collection, to assemble a set of Rainbow Rare Trainers, or simply because they enjoy the character art. As one of the secret rares of the set, it makes a tidy chase card for fans of the era.
