In a right prism, the lateral sides are perpendicular to the bases and so all of them are rectangular.
In an oblique prism, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the bases so that some of them (at least) are non-rectangular parallelograms.

How are oblique prisms and right prisms different?
A right prism is a prism which has bases aligned one directly above the other and has lateral faces that are rectangles. An oblique prism is a prism with bases that, while parallel, are not aligned one directly above the other.
How many faces does a oblique rectangular prism have?
an oblique rectangular prism has six sides. two for the top and bottom, and four for right and left/front and back.
Is there a difference between a right rectangular prism and a rectanglar prism?
yes, they are different.
What is an oblique shape?
If we're talking in purely geometric terms: If the edges of a prism/cylinder make a right angle with the base, it is called a right prism/cylinder. If not, it is an oblique prism/cylinder...it will look as if it were slanting to one side instead of standing straight. Similarly, if the top vertex of a pyramid/cone is directly above the center of the base, it is a right pyramid/cone. Otherwise, it is an oblique pyramid/cone. Again, it will look a bit askew.
What is oblique prism?
It is the opposite of a right prism. The bases are not directly aligned atop another, and it has a visible lateral height instead of a visible height (Which is from the center of one base to the center of the other base).
