# Charizard V #019/189 — Darkness Ablaze

## Summary

Charizard V is the Pokémon every collector's eye lands on first, and in Darkness Ablaze it sat as the set's headline V, with Charizard's fanbase guaranteeing demand. Fire Spin's big swing made it a real tournament threat of the Sword & Shield era, and aky CG Works is a respected hand on Charizard. The modelled guide sits at $7.16, down 20% over 30 days on 229 copies traded, with 18 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $108, 15 times raw, but a 58% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
