What does red HP mean on Pokemon cards?
Nah, red HP doesn't mean much. It's just a design thing to make shiny or secret rare cards stand out. No big deal in actual play.

I legit freaked out the first time I saw red HP on a card. Thought my Charizard got a sunburn or something. But yeah, it's just a way to mark those shiny and secret rare cards. Makes them feel extra special when you snag one from a pack.
Red HP on Pokemon cards is actually pretty straightforward - it signifies that the Pokemon is a 'shiny' or 'secret rare' version. This doesn't change the card's gameplay stats or abilities; it's all about the cool factor and the rarity. So, if you pull a card with red HP, congrats, you've got something special!
