Urshifu Pokemon Card Guide: Every Rapid Strike & Single Strike Print

Every Urshifu Card and Which Set It’s From

Twelve Japanese prints across four sets:

The split runs deeper than card art. Rapid Strike Master and Single Strike Master released as a matched pair on the same day, each with its own booster box, its own V/VMAX numbering, and its own set of secret prints — a structure the Sword & Shield era used a handful of times.

Rapid Strike Urshifu: V and VMAX (Rapid Strike Master)

Rapid Strike Urshifu V, S5R 050/070, RR

Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX, S5R 051/070, RRR

Rapid Strike Master (S5R), released January 22, 2021, built its whole set around the “flowing water” side of Urshifu’s dual identity. Rapid Strike Urshifu V (050/070, RR) is a Fighting-type Basic at 220 HP, with an attack named ストレート that does 30 damage and lets you swap this card back to the Bench, plus a second attack, ひゃっきしゅうらい, for 150. It evolves into Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX (051/070, RRR), illustrated by PLANETA Tsuji, a Fighting-type at 330 HP with the attacks しっぷうづき (30+ damage, +120 more if it came off the Bench that turn) and a Dynamax attack, キョダイレンゲキ, that discards all its attached Energy to deal 120 damage to each of two of the opponent’s Pokemon, ignoring Weakness and Resistance on the Benched target.

The V line has two secret-rare art variants stacked above it: a full-art copy at 076/070 and a special-art copy at 077/070, the latter illustrated by Ryota Murayama. Both carry the same card text as the base V. For the wider special-art rarity tier these two belong to, see our special art Japanese cards guide.

The Chase Print: Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX HR

Above the SR tier sits the set’s special-art HR: Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX, S5R 084/070, printed at HR — a full special-art rendering of the Gigantamax pose. It’s the same VMAX text as the 051/070 print. Rapid Strike Master also has a second HR, 083/070, a non-special-art copy at the same rarity tier.

We currently hold this exact print graded PSA 10, and it’s the only copy in our catalog — currently listed at ¥120,510 (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order). One-of-one stock — when it sells, it’s gone.

The Evolved Line: Dark-Type Urshifu (Matchless Fighters)

Matchless Fighters (S5a), released March 19, 2021, added a third Urshifu entirely separate from the V/VMAX pair: a Dark-type, Stage 1 evolution that evolves from Dakuma. At 140 HP, illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, it carries two attacks — フィールドクラッシュ for 50 damage that discards the opponent’s Stadium card, and しゅらのこぶし for 100+ damage. This is the only print in this guide built as a standard evolution line rather than a V/VMAX card, and it belongs to the Sword & Shield era’s wider trainer-and-evolution structure — for more on that era, see our Sword & Shield era Japanese Pokemon guide.
