**The rarest card in Champion's Path is Gardevoir VMAX (#76), a Rare Rainbow.**

## Why Gardevoir VMAX tops the list

Champion's Path prints just 5 Rare Rainbows, the thinnest tier in the set, and Gardevoir VMAX sits at #76 among them. Rarity and price don't always line up. By market value the priciest card is Charizard V (#79) at about $264.34, so the rarest pull and the most expensive one are different cards here.

## How Gardevoir VMAX sits in the wider chase

Champion's Path runs to 80 cards including 7 secret rares, and Gardevoir VMAX is the scarcest of them. Other cards collectors hunt in the set:

- [Charizard V (#79)](/card/swsh35-79) — Rare Secret (~$264.34)
- [Charizard VMAX (#74)](/card/swsh35-74) — Rare Rainbow (~$198.74)
- [Drednaw VMAX (#75)](/card/swsh35-75) — Rare Rainbow (~$6.51)

## Star Pokémon to chase in Champion's Path

Beyond the single rarest card, these are the headline Pokémon and their prints in the set — each appears in multiple slots, so there's more than one Champion's Path card to hunt per name:

- **Charizard** — Charizard VMAX (#74), Charizard V (#79)
- **Gardevoir** — Gardevoir V (#70), Gardevoir VMAX (#76)
- **Drednaw** — Drednaw V (#69), Drednaw VMAX (#75)
- **Galarian Cursola** — Galarian Cursola V (#71)
- **Grapploct** — Grapploct V (#72)

If you're hunting the rarest pull, Gardevoir VMAX is the one to prioritise; the rest of Champion's Path's chase fills in from there. With 7 secret rares and 0 full-art cards across the 80-card set, there's a deep bench of rare pulls behind it.
