# Charmeleon #19/149 — Boundaries Crossed

## Summary

Charmeleon sits in an awkward spot for fans, overshadowed by Charizard yet carrying all the Kanto starter nostalgia of the line. An uncommon in Boundaries Crossed, it was a middle-of-the-pack pull, with its draw coming from Masakazu Fukuda's long-running work on Pokémon cards rather than rarity. At a $2.75 modelled guide, up 7% over 30 days on 11 copies traded, with 105 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.18 out of Ascended Heroes; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
