Article: Its members will also be balloted on industrial action unless the next UK government scraps a 1% pay-rise cap.
The Welsh Government, which sets pay for nurses in Wales, said the NHS Pay Review Body had recommended a 1% pay rise after looking at expert evidence.
The lowest earners will receiving a rise to the Living Wage, it added.
The RCN said a consultative ballot of its members in April showed a majority (78%) were prepared to go on strike, while 91% said they would support industrial action short of a strike.
About 52,000 of the 270,000 RCN members eligible to vote took part.
The union said the 1% cap on pay rises had left nursing staff with a 14% real terms pay cut since 2010 and it would launch a ballot on industrial action this year unless it was lifted.
A spokesman for the Welsh Government said: "We are proud of our nurses and we work to support them in Wales."
He said it offered NHS bursaries for eligible student nurses and supported professional development.

Article: Strike action started at 06:00 BST on Friday, with the GMB union stating the majority of its members voted in favour of industrial action.
Employer Veolia said it was disappointed with the move.
The company, which runs waste management for Sheffield City Council, added it had been "working closely" with the union and its employees.
The GMB union, which represents 95% of about 180 workers, said about 92% of its members voted for action.
Peter Davies, from the union, said the dispute centred around what he called the "aggressive" use of disciplinary procedures and said there had been 96 gross misconduct cases in the last 12 months.
He said talks had taken place but a deal to rewrite disciplinary rules had not been agreed.
A spokesman for Veolia said extra crews will be working on Saturday and Sunday to complete any missed collections.
He added: "We are working hard to resolve this matter and to minimise the impact on bin collections for Sheffield residents.
"We have made significant progress towards resolving the current dispute, and we hope to conclude an agreement between ourselves and the GMB next week."

Article: The Independent Monitoring Board (IMB) said about 170 men are on open-ended sentences at the jail near Devizes.
A lack of funding has led to the withdrawal of mandatory courses those prisoners are required to undertake in order to qualify for a parole hearing.
The IMB said the matter is causing "a destabilising influence in the prison".
Its report claimed the cost of keeping each prisoner who is over tariff at the Category C jail amounts to more than Â£20,500 per annum.
Inspectors advised the government to implement a "finite action plan" to address the needs of prisoners affected which must include funding of courses to "reduce the wait times, and increase the number of parole boards".
The report also recommended a national database to identify prisons which deliver interventions and match prisoners to appropriate courses.
However, the Ministry of Justice said those who remain in custody do so because the independent parole board "has assessed them as posing an unacceptable risk to the public".
The Criminal Justice Act 2003 introduced indeterminate sentencing for public protection for serious sexual and violent offenders.
The Prison Reform Trust said: "A lack of resources means that prisoners are unable to prove their reduced risk and are waiting longer and longer for a parole decision, with no means of knowing when, or if, they will be released.
"To right this wrong would not only save over Â£40m a year but should also be done on grounds of simple humanity."
Erlestoke Prison did not wish to comment on the report.
HMP Erlestoke houses about 500 men and specialises in rehabilitating long-term prisoners and preparing them for release.
