Reverse holo cards are more common compared to holo cards since the former are almost in every pack. Just opened a mew 151 booster box recently and noticed that some reverse holos has the pokeball symbols and some not. Holo cards on the other hand are harder to come by.
Reverse Holo Vs Holo Pokemon PELAJARAN
But the major difference is in the design and appearance of the card.
A reverse holo pokemon card is a type of holofoil card wherein the entirety of the card is printed with a metallic finish, making it appear shiny except the artwork.
Such card type was called reverse because a regular holofoil will have a shiny metallic finish all around the card, including the artwork. A reverse holo pokémon card is the alternative print of a holo card. Modern reverse holo cards will have a foil shine everywhere but the illustration box. Aside from the foil, the card will remain identical to its regular holo counterpart.
All regular common, uncommon, rare and holo cards have reverse holo versions. Reverse holo pokémon cards are a unique and exciting aspect of the pokémon trading card game. Holo refers to the artwork/photo being holographic. Reverse holo refers to when you have the rest of the card have the foil.
During gen 3 you also have the stamps like we do for modern prerelease on the reverse holo, example:
All normal cards can come reverse foil. This page explains how to tell the difference between holo or reverse holo cards used in the pokémon trading card game, with a view to making it easy to identify whether a card is a holo or reverse holo category and seeking to understand which type of card is preferred by fans of the tcg.

Holographic pokémon cards from the late 90s and early 2000s only fall into two categories:
A regular holo card constricts the holo effect to the illustration box of the card.
A reverse holo is when most of the card is holo, and the illustration box is not. Does every pokemon have a holo or reverse holo variant? I know there won’t be a holo and a reverse holo to a pokémon. I’m sorting out a binder for the first ever time, newly back into the cards.
I’m wondering whether it’s right to leave a gap after each pokemon ready for the special version of that pokemon when i get the card. Holos are better in general than rare and reverse, but a reverse that is normally a holo is a bit rarer. Back in the ex era days reverse versions of cards that were holos had their name/hp and stars in gold and, as most of the ex era reverse, had the set's stamp on the art box. I'm also new to collecting and curious about this.
Someone told me they thought the reverse holo was the more rare card.
If it follows the pattern of the more rare card for the commons and uncommons being the reverse holo, then with the cards that are guaranteed to be holo, the reverse should be the more rare. If the card can be holo and reverse holo then i use the holo in my complete set binder. All the rest of the bulk and reverses go into shoeboxes for the day when i finally get around to organizing them all and selling all the bulk to one of the guys who buys bulk. The reverse holo card has a shiny foil finish on the card’s background and borders, but not on the pokémon’s illustration.
This type of holo card is less rare than the classic holo card. The full art holo card features a unique illustration that covers the entire card, including the background and borders. Reverse holo cards first appeared in 2002 with the release of the legendary collection expansion set. However, a reverse holo of of the same rare card is often valued higher as the chances of getting a reverse holo rare is lower than the chances of getting a holo.
This is because the reverse slot pulls from the entire set list (any card in the set can be reverse) while the guaranteed rare card pulls from the rares and holo list, which is
But the reverse holo is probably slightly rarer in terms of pull rates: Every pack contains a reverse holo, but getting a specific reverse holo in the ex delta species set has a 1 in 107 chance (assuming all have an equal chance of being pulled). Every pack also contains a rare, holofoil rare, ultra rare, or secret rare. Reverse holo pokémon cards are alternate versions of the standard cards that you can find in any given set, and they can be worth more than a normal print to a collector.
They are not rare overall, as you can generally find one reverse holo in every pack that you buy, but individual examples can be very sought after, and these are worth the most for resale. Sometimes referred to as galaxy holo cards, cosmos holo cards feature a pattern of stars, circles and dots that resemble planets and stars in space. This style of holo was used for the 1999 base set, the jungle set and the fossil set. The lapras holo card from the fossil set clearly shows the reflected light from this distinctive cosmos design.
The reverse usually sells for less than the normal holo version.
In other cases, like the crystal guardians delta charizard, the price of the normal holo and the reverse can be pretty close. It just depends on the kind of card really.
