The pseudo-deltoidal icositetrahedron is a convex polyhedron with 24 kites as its faces. It is the dual of the elongated square gyrobicupola (also known as the pseudorhombicuboctahedron).

It is similar to the deltoidal icositetrahedron, but has a twist, similar to the relationship between the pseudorhombicuboctahedron and the rhombicuboctahedron. As the pseudorhombicuboctahedron is not truly vertex-transitive, the pseudo-deltoidal icositetrahedron is not truly face-transitive, with its faces in two different symmetry orbits (three if one only considers rotational symmetries); however, since the pseudorhombicuboctahedron has a singular vertex figure, the pseudo-deltoidal icositetrahedron has only one type of face (monohedral).
