i or some hyper real numbers are neither irrational nor rational. Basically all crazy extensions of R used to solve even more crazy problems. They don't really exist naturally (and you can make up your own field extension of R as you wish), but they are handy if you want to compute stuff.

But by definition there are no real numbers that are neither rational or irrational.
