Looking rather anime, Charizard 4/100 shows a Delta species Charizard with a rather healthy flame on it's tail.... Illustrated by Kouki Saitou. I have to imagine that Peal of Thunder must have been a pretty OP ability in its day. The Shiny Vault rare Charizard VMAX from Shining Fates is currently one of the most sought after and valuable cards in the Sword & Shield series. Whats better than Charizard? Charizard VMAX? Whats better than Rainbow? Shiny, of course. Illustrated by CG. Works.
With other one off sets, you don’t get cards constantly being printed and entering into the market. The price of these sorts of cards will follow what’s called a “parabolic descent” pattern until a set finishes its print run or a new set is released. The Diamond & Pearl series got its first Charizard in its final expansion: Diamond & Pearl: Stormfront. It's wings can carry this Pokémon close to an altitude of 4,600 feet. It blows out fire at very high temperatures. Artwork by Mitsuhiro Arita. Essentially a reprint of the original Base Set Charizard. Spits fire that is hot enough to melt boulders. Known to unintentionally cause forest fires. LV. 76 #6. Artwork byMitsuhiro Arita. This promo is an alternative full art of the Reshirard card from Unbroken Bonds, it was released in the Reshiram & Charizard GX Figure collection alongside a rather cool mini-figure of Reshiram & Charizard. It came in both standard and full art versions. The card was sought after by both collectors and competitive TCG players. It's possibly the nicest looking Reshirard card for me.Illustrasted by Ryota Murayama.Once the sun set on the Sun & Moon series the Sword & Shield series arrived and GX Cards were replaced with V Cards. Not only this but V Pokemon attained the new ability; to go VMAX (become massively bigger versions of their original Pokemon). And Charizard was never going to be left out of the fun. Lets take a look at all the V and VMAX cards featuring the ultimate dragon looking non-dragon. In terms of both main artwork and moveset this is a full art recycle of 69/106, however this card has the gold Japanese style lettering and a gold accent on the card which shows it is the secret rare version of the original. (Thanks to Sam T for this info).
I was really unsure about the style of this and the other DP cards to begin with but I realised they were awesome not long later. " When expelling a blast of superhot fire, the red flame at the tip of its tail burns more intensely." I'm ashamed to say that prior to writing this article I didn't even know this card existed. We've had Dragonite and Delibird doing deliveries previously, a Dragonite with a mail bag being re-released as a promo for the Sword & Shield series (a nod to the First Movie promo) would've been awesome - but they opted for yet another Charizard. No complaint from me though, its an awesome card. It's also highly sought after and in zero supply. I literally just looked for this while I was writing and there doesn't appear to be any available at any of the online marketplaces. I can only expect that it was a Pokemon Center exclusive. There was actually reference to this card in a little booklet that came with the Sword & Shield Ultra Premium Collection. The Rainbow Rare version of the Darkness Ablaze VMAX was a secret rare in Champions Path. I'm more of a Shiny Charizard V man myself. Illustrated by CG Works. A fairly standard Charizard non-action-pose holo sees the zard staring at the holographic moon, a nice simple card illustrated by the notorious Ken Sugimori. The pull rate on this card was pretty crazy considering its Charizard VMAX. These things were popping like wildfire. It's the first time we see Charizard in VMAX form with it's colossal 330 HP. Illustrated by CG Works.

The first Mega Charizard in the XY Evolutions set recycles the artwork and moveset once again from XY Flashfire. (Thanks to Sam T for this info). Arguably not quite the competitive staple of its Reshirard predecessor but a nice card none the less, and by no means terrible in play.
Although Charizard has never been officially classified as a Dragon type (despite Alolan Exeggutor somehow making the grade) he still makes it into the Sun & Moon Dragon Majesty special set (special in the sense it couldn't be bought in booster boxes and was only available in collection boxes, pin boxes etc.). " Its wings can carry this Pokemon close to an altitude of 4,600 feet. It blows out fire at very high temperatures".Illustrated by Ryota Murayama. I want to discuss some alternative Charizard cards that are not only worth collecting, but are affordable too. Here’s a list of the best affordable Charizard cards to collect. Regular card sets will have a relatively steady stream of new cards in print. Hence the price will remain fairly low. The rainbow version of Charizard & Braixens only tag team outing. One of the most sought after cards in the Sun & Moon series' final set. But let's take it one step further, for the sake of science. Let's say you decided to open the UPC promos and get them graded by PSA. Should you Grade Charizard Promos from the Ultra Premium Collection?It could be argued that this is still the most elusive and sought after Charizard in the Sun & Moon series (yes, even over the Hidden Fates one). Personally despite having opened an absolute load of Burning Shadows booster boxes I only ever even saw one of these cards. It is a beautiful card though for sure. This card shows Charizard hovering in the air, wreathed in flames which I can only presume were of his own making. The cards descriptive text reads: " It is said that Charizard's fire burns hotter if it has experienced harsh battles.". Illustrated by hatachu. If you want to open the Charizard UPC to enjoy some of the best sets from the Sword and Shield era, get the 3 Charizard promos, and especially if you can get the Charizard UPC for under MSRP, we think this is still a great product to buy. It is also not a bad sealed collectible piece, since it displays well and features one of the most popular Pokemon of all time, Charizard. Where Can I Buy the Ultra Premium Charizard Collection? Cinnibar Island's gym leader Blaine entered the Pokemon TCG fray with a number of his Pokemon in the Gym Challenge set in 2000 including this awesome Charizard. No descriptive/lore text makes me a little sad, but instead we got a cool portrait of Blaine's face where that text would've gone so who can complain right? This card was illustrated by Ken Sugimori. These cards had a massive initial print run, which meant that for almost 20 years the price remained stagnant. Only now are they rising in price due to card loss and damage. i.e the supply of them dropping. More Gaming Content
Spits fire that it hot enough to melt boulders. Known to unintentionally cause forest fires. Artwork by Mitsuhiro Arita. The full art version of 20/214 shows new partners Reshiram & Charizard in a more relaxed pose. A really nice looking card and my favourite of the three zards in this set. Illustrated by CG Works. Left to right: Charizard RC5/RC32 from the Generations Radiant Collection, Charizard 11/108 Rare Holo from Evolutions and Dragon Majesty's 3/70 Charizard. Before we go into the list in a greater level of detail, I just want to clarify by what I mean affordable. It’s a subjective term but most of the cards on this list are attainable for the average person to save up for. The full art version of 11/106 features an usually docile looking Charizard, which is a nice change from the fire breathing action shots used on many cards.Illustrated by Ryo Ueda.
Possibly the first rendition of 'shiny' or 'alternate' Charizard on a card, certainly to my memory.... the descriptive text reads " This extremely rare Pokemon is a different color than usual. It is very hard to find." and credit for the illustration of this majestic and elusive zard goes toAyoko Yoshida. An awesome looking card, and a nice HP bonus for the mega evolution (220 HP) but 5 energy to use one move and then the guy damages himself? Damn. Illustrated by 5ban graphics. From left to right: Charizard VMAX 020/189, Charizard VMAX 074/073, Shiny Charizard VMAX SV107/SV122.
