It's a Rare card illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, and today it carries a raw, ungraded value of $1,776, which already tells you collectors haven't stopped caring about it two decades later.

The collector's take on Charizard
Is Charizard worth grading?
Here's where it gets interesting. A PSA 10 of this card sells for $121,080, while a Grade 9 sits at $15,842. That PSA 10 figure works out to about 68.2 times the raw price, which is a staggering jump on paper. But gem mint is genuinely hard to hit on a card this old, centering and edge wear from 2002 print runs weren't exactly perfect, and grading takes time, money, and a real chance the card comes back a 9 instead of a 10. If you own a raw copy that looks sharp in hand, a Grade 9 alone still multiplies your money nicely, so it's worth asking a grading service or experienced collector to eyeball it before you commit. Just go in knowing grading is a bet, not a guarantee.
How rare is Charizard?
Across all grading services, only 4,630 copies of this card have been graded, and of those, just 140 have earned a PSA 10. That's a small slice sitting at the very top, and it explains why the PSA 10 price sits so far above everything else. When a population report shows that few gem mint copies existing worldwide, every one of them becomes a genuine event when it sells, and that scarcity is baked directly into the price gap you see between raw, Grade 9, and PSA 10.
Where can you pull Charizard?
PackSpy has tracked this Charizard being pulled 98 times across collector-crypt and mnstr, with the biggest recorded pull landing at $6,900. We've seen it show up in packs like the Grail Pokémon Gacha Pack, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Legendary Pokémon Gacha Pack, Mythic Pokémon Gacha Pack, and Pack 2. That's real, recorded pull data, not a guess, and it's the kind of insight a price guide simply can't give you. Worth saying plainly though: opening packs chasing a card like this is a gamble, most rips don't come close to covering what you paid, so treat any pull as a bonus rather than a plan.
