Overview

Rebel Clash is a 209-card expansion released in May 2020, deepening the Sword & Shield VMAX mechanic. The set introduced Boss's Orders (Giovanni), which became one of the most essential Supporter cards in the game, replacing Guzma and Lysandre in Standard. Dragapult VMAX and Toxtricity VMAX headline as fan-favorite Galar VMAX evolutions.

Best for

People who already track subsets like Trainer Gallery separately
people attempting a wide Rebel Clash master set who will split base numbers from high-number / special rows
people building around Boss's Orders Full Art / Dragapult VMAX without pretending bulk pays the same

Skip this path if

you will not inspect centering on expensive alts
you want a weekend master set — Rebel Clash is 209 cards; budget the chase tier alone

Common mistakes

If you only remember one thing about Rebel Clash: Boss's Orders Full Art / Dragapult VMAX is not interchangeable with every other print of those Pokemon. People still get burned by buying alts on pure hype without centering/surface notes, then argue condition after they already overpaid. Confirm swsh2 / the set symbol before comps — “SWSH V / VMAX / alt arts lot” language is how wrong products get mixed.

What to check first

Verify set membership (swsh2) and centering and surface before any grade or “near mint” claim. Condition pass on Boss's Orders Full Art / Dragapult VMAX before negotiation. Finish with a checklist gap list so you are not “completing” only the bulk.

Tips to finish the set

Rebel Clash released during early COVID lockdowns, limiting initial availability but receiving heavy reprints later. Non-chase cards are very affordable. The Boss's Orders Full Art is worth owning for both competitive and collector purposes. Focus singles purchases on the rainbow rare VMAX cards.

Step by step

How to Complete This Set

01

Identify Rebel Clash cards by set code swsh2 / symbol — do not sort by art alone
02

Split bulk commons/uncommons from holos and special rarities before pricing
03

Track Boss's Orders Full Art and Dragapult VMAX as priority singles, not pack EV fantasies
04

Scan or checklist-gap the rest after the chase budget is honest

Scan with the app

Boss's Orders was reprinted in multiple sets with different artwork. The scanner identifies the specific Rebel Clash version and printing, which matters for set completion. It also distinguishes between the regular and secret rare VMAX variants that share similar artwork.

FAQ

Common questions

01 Why is Boss's Orders so important?

Boss's Orders forces the opponent to switch their Active Pokemon with a benched Pokemon of your choice. This gust effect is essential for targeting key threats, and the card was included in virtually every competitive deck from 2020-2023.

02 What makes Dragapult VMAX competitive?

Dragapult VMAX's Max Phantom attack deals 130 damage and places 5 damage counters on the opponent's benched Pokemon in any combination. This spread damage paired with its 320 HP made it a top-tier competitive deck.

03 How many VMAX cards are in Rebel Clash?

Rebel Clash contains 7 Pokemon VMAX cards: Dragapult VMAX, Toxtricity VMAX, Copperajah VMAX, Malamar VMAX, Sandaconda VMAX, Cinderace VMAX, and Inteleon VMAX.

04 Was Rebel Clash affected by COVID availability?

Yes, Rebel Clash initially had limited distribution due to COVID-19 supply chain disruptions. However, it received substantial reprints throughout 2020-2021, and sealed product is now readily available at reasonable prices.
