**Prismatic Evolutions has 32 Illustration Rares and Special Illustration Rares.**

## Illustration Rares in Prismatic Evolutions

Illustration Rares (IR) and Special Illustration Rares (SIR) are the full-art, scene-style cards collectors chase hardest. Prismatic Evolutions packs 32 of them into its 180 cards: 0 standard IRs and 32 larger-art SIRs. That puts the full-art count at roughly 18% of the set — a meaningful share of why Prismatic Evolutions is fun to open.

## IR vs SIR in Prismatic Evolutions

If you're prioritising, the 32 Special Illustration Rares are the scarcer, pricier tier — full-bleed art and lower pull rates — while the 0 standard Illustration Rares are more attainable but still some of the best-looking cards in Prismatic Evolutions. Together those 32 full-art cards are the heart of the set's chase and the reason a master set climbs to 447 cards.
