# Charizard #100/97 — Dragon

## Summary

Charizard is the most chased Pokémon in the hobby, and every Fire-type starter line since Red and Blue leans on that gravity. Mitsuhiro Arita is among the franchise's most celebrated illustrators, and this EX-era Stage 2 sat in a Rare slot, not the chase tier, so it stays approachable. The modelled guide sits at $500 with 3 copies traded in 30 days; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
