Rebel Clash is the second Sword & Shield expansion: 192 cards up to the printed total and 17 secret rares above it (193 to 209).

Its Pokémon VMAX include Rillaboom, Cinderace and Inteleon, the three Galar starters, and Dragapult VMAX. Among its Trainers is Boss's Orders, a Supporter that switches one of your opponent's Benched Pokémon into the Active Spot, printed as a regular card, a full art and a Rainbow Rare. Flapple and Scoop Up Net from this set are on the Expanded banned list.

Cards and rarities

Rebel Clash has 209 cards. Every card shows its number over the printed total along the bottom, as in "001/192", next to the set code RCL.

The printed total is 192, so the 17 cards from 193 to 209 are secret rares. Set completion in TurnZero HQ counts a set against its printed total and keeps the secret rares apart, so finishing the main set and chasing the cards above it read as two separate goals. How set completion works →

What a complete set costs

One copy of every card in Rebel Clash, bought as singles, cost $502.76 on October 22, 2026. That is the 15th most expensive of the seventeen sets in the Sword & Shield series.

Complete set $502.76
Main set, 001 to 192 $278.33
17 secret rares $224.43
Top three cards $137.23 (27%)

The three most valuable cards, two Boss's Orders cards and Ninetales V, come to $137.23, or 27% of the total. Without them the set costs $365.53. Of the 207 cards, 164 were under $2.00, together $53.94; the other 43 add up to $448.82.

Two cards had no TCGplayer price on file and aren't counted: Horror Psychic Energy and Speed Lightning Energy.

Each card is counted at its cheapest priced variant, a Normal copy rather than a Reverse Holofoil where both exist, at its TCGplayer market price. This is what it costs to buy the set as singles. It is not what opening packs returns, and not what a complete set would sell for, which after fees and the many cards worth cents would be noticeably less.

Playing it

Rebel Clash cards carry the D regulation mark, and Standard has allowed only H, I and J since April 10, 2026, so none is Standard-legal as printed. Rebel Clash is legal in Expanded, which takes every set from Black & White on, except for Flapple (022/192) and Scoop Up Net (165/192 and 207/192), on the Expanded banned list.

A reprint with a legal mark makes older printings of the same card legal again, so check a card's name before you rule it out.
