Most Expensive Charizard Pokémon Cards: Top Japanese Listings

Updated November 9, 2026

The most expensive Charizard Pokémon cards in our Japanese PSA 10 listings start with the M Charizard EX UR [XY2 089/080] from Expansion Pack „Wild Blaze“ at a listing price of JPY 4,896,000. The next listing is JPY 388,307, so the top card sits far above the rest.

Which Charizard card has the highest listing price at Samurai Sword Tokyo?

The PSA 10 M Charizard EX UR from Expansion Pack „Wild Blaze“ (card number 089/080 in set XY2) has the highest listing price of any Charizard we list, at JPY 4,896,000. The product page labels its rarity as UR and says it is graded PSA 10 (Gem Mint).

That figure is our listing price on November 9, 2026. It is not a market value and not a sold price. PSA 10 is described on the page as the highest grade Professional Sports Authenticator certifies, awarded only to cards in flawless, gem mint condition.

The gap to the rest of the list is the main thing to take from this ranking. The card at rank 1 is listed at more than twelve times the price of rank 2. Every other Charizard we list falls between JPY 107,813 and JPY 388,307, so the top card is a separate tier by itself rather than the first step of a smooth scale.

How are the most expensive Charizard cards ranked?

We rank them by our own listing price in Japanese yen, and only among the Charizard cards we currently list. A card that is not in the table is not ranked.

Every card in the table is a PSA 10 listing. Availability changes, so check each product page before you plan an order. The table shows prices as of November 9, 2026 and will not stay current, so treat the product page as the live source for any single card.

The ranking is a statement about our shop, not about the whole Charizard market. Other sellers may list other Charizard cards, other grades or other prices. What this page gives you is a clear, dated list of what we list, with the exact set code and card number for each entry so you can search for the same card anywhere.

Which Charizard cards follow the top listing?

Ranks 2 to 5 are all listed between JPY 317,172 and JPY 388,307, which puts them within about JPY 71,000 of each other. They come from four different sets.

MEGA Charizard X ex MUR [M2 116/080] is from Expansion Pack „Inferno X“ and is listed at JPY 388,307. It is the highest-listed Mega Charizard X ex card we have.

Charizard V SR PROMO [S-P 103] comes from the S-P Promotional cards group, listed at JPY 353,496. The product page gives its rarity as PROMO and its number as 103.

Charizard GX SSR [SM8b 209/150] is from High Class Pack „GX Ultra Shiny“, listed at JPY 332,998.

Reshiram & Charizard GX SR SA [SM10 097/095] is from Expansion Pack „Double Blaze“, listed at JPY 317,172. It is the one card here that is a shared card with Reshiram, so it fits a Charizard search only partly.

If you want a single-Pokémon Charizard card in this tier, ranks 2, 3 and 4 are the ones to look at. Rank 5 is a Reshiram and Charizard card, which suits a collector who wants that pairing rather than a Charizard on its own.

What are the Charizard listings from rank 6 to rank 10?

Ranks 6 to 10 sit between JPY 107,813 and JPY 149,411, a spread of about JPY 41,600. They mix a Wild Blaze card, a starter pack card, a magazine promo and two modern ex cards.

The Charizard EX PROMO (030/XY-P) is a supplement from the March 2014 issue of CoroCoro Comic, per its listing name. The MEGA Charizard X ex appears twice in the ranking: as the MUR at rank 2 and as the SAR at rank 9, both from „Inferno X“. The same Mega Charizard X ex name therefore spans a range from JPY 124,488 to JPY 388,307 in our listings, depending on the card number and rarity label.

Wild Blaze also appears twice, at rank 1 and rank 6. Across the whole table, three listings (ranks 1, 6 and 7) carry the M Charizard EX name, so the card number is the only reliable way to tell them apart.

The Charizard ex SAR [SV2a 201/165] at rank 10 is the entry point of this ranking at JPY 107,813. It comes from Enhanced Expansion Pack „Pokemon Card 151“, which makes it the one card in the top ten from that set.

How do the two Wild Blaze M Charizard EX listings differ?

They are two different cards from the same set, XY2: the UR is numbered 089/080 and the RR 1ED is numbered 055/080. Our listing price is JPY 4,896,000 for the first and JPY 149,411 for the second.

The RR listing carries the „1ED“ tag in its name, and the product page gives its rarity as RR. Read the full name and number on each page, because „M Charizard EX“ alone matches both.

Before you buy, check the card number and rarity against the product page. Our listing says each card is graded PSA 10 and notes that the PSA case may have minor scratches or marks on its surface.

How do I read a Charizard listing name?

Each listing name follows the same order: grade, card name, rarity label, then the set code and number in square brackets, then the source product in parentheses. For example, „PSA10 MEGA Charizard X ex MUR [M2 116/080](Expansion Pack „Inferno X“)“ gives a PSA 10 grade, the card name MEGA Charizard X ex, the label MUR, set code M2, number 116/080 and the Inferno X expansion pack.

The set code and number are what separate cards that share a name. Our top ten contains three M Charizard EX listings (XY2 089/080, XY2 055/080 and XY-20th 011/072) and two MEGA Charizard X ex listings (M2 116/080 and M2 110/080). The names match, but the codes and prices do not.

The table lists the labels exactly as they appear in the listing names. Rank 7, M Charizard EX [XY-20th 011/072], has no rarity label in its name and is identified by its number and its source product, the Pokémon Card Game Starter Pack.

When you compare a listing against a card you saw elsewhere, match three things: the card name, the set code, and the number after the slash. If any of them differs, it is a different card. If you want a deeper look at ex naming, our guide What Does ex Mean on Pokémon Cards? explains ex, EX, ex★ and MA.

What does PSA 10 mean on these Charizard listings?

PSA 10 (Gem Mint) is the highest grade certifiable by Professional Sports Authenticator, awarded only to cards in flawless, gem mint condition, according to our product pages. All ten cards in this ranking carry that grade.

Every listing here has the same grade, so the grade does not separate one entry from another. The entries differ in card name, set, number and rarity label, and the table shows each one’s listing price.

The product pages also state that the PSA case may have minor scratches or marks on its surface, and that stock levels can change, so in some cases an order may take a little longer to ship. Read that note before you order a card where the case matters to you.

The shipping policy adds a point specific to graded cards. PSA graded cards may also be offered through our other sales channels, so a PSA item shown online may already be sold before our team locks the allocation for your online order. Once your payment has cleared, we secure the PSA graded card matching your order, even if additional sourcing is required, and dispatch may take longer in that case.

Are there new Charizard cards from the 2025 and 2026 Japanese sets?

Yes. Mega Charizard X ex appears in the MEGA High Class Pack „MEGA Dream ex“ (M2a), released November 28, 2025, according to the official M2a page. That page also introduces MA (Mega Attack Rare) as a new rarity, lists the pack at JPY 550 including tax and says it holds ten cards.

An official notice dated December 5, 2025 says some MA cards in that pack, including Mega Charizard X ex, have a surface-finishing error. It says using the card causes no play problem, and affected cards are exchanged through the Pokémon Card Support Desk web form (official notice). That notice covers MA cards from M2a. The cards in our ranking come from „Inferno X“ (M2), a different set, so the notice does not describe them.

Charizard is also one of the 30 classic cards reissued in special form in MEGA Expansion Pack „30th CELEBRATION“, under the heading for the 1996 first expansion pack. The official product page gives the release date as September 16, 2026 and the pack price as JPY 360 including tax, with six foil Karten pro Pack. Those reissued cards cannot be used in the current Standard regulation, per the same page; they can be used in the regulations where the original card is legal.

The international press release for the same set confirms a retail release on September 16, 2026, says the expansion contains all foil cards and says 30 classic Pokémon cards return to the Pokémon TCG (press release). The English-language set page also quotes a line about Charizard: its Fire Spin attack was the highest-damage attack in the entire Base Set expansion (30th Celebration page).

For other Pokémon from the same set, see our 30 Knock Out Collection guide.

Does Charizard appear in other official Japanese products?

Yes. The official Pokémon Card Game Classic page lists Charizard in the „Charizard & Ho-Oh ex“ deck, one of three decks of 60 cards in the set.

The official Classic page gives a suggested retail price of JPY 35,000 including tax and a release listed as late October 2023 or later. It describes the Charizard card’s Ability „Energy Burn“, which lets you treat all Energy attached to it as Fire Energy, and its attack „Fire Whirl“. It also says the card has the same illustration as the one from the first expansion pack, „Pocket Monsters Card Game“.

The page also says its images show items still in development, and it carries added notes from 2023 about extra lottery sales and shipping timing. We do not list the Classic set in this ranking. It is here because it is an official Charizard product, and the ranking above is limited to the single PSA 10 cards we list.

How does buying a PSA 10 Charizard from Japan work?

You order on our site and we ship by FedEx. Standard shipping is FedEx International Connect Plus, usually 3-7 business days after dispatch, and expedited is FedEx International Priority, usually 2-5 business days. Both are estimates only, and the cost is calculated at checkout from your address (shipping policy).

Most orders are processed and shipped within 5 business days after PayPal or Wise payment has cleared. That is also an estimate, not a guarantee, and business days exclude weekends and Japanese national holidays. There is no minimum order amount or quantity, so a single card is a valid order.

The delivery dates shown on our site, at checkout or in carrier tools do not include handling time, supplier allocation delays, quality inspection holds, weekends, Japanese national holidays, customs processing, carrier congestion, weather or destination-country conditions. After an order is handed to FedEx, timing is controlled by the carrier and destination-country authorities, and customs processing is part of that.

If dispatch is delayed, we contact you by email as soon as practical with the revised estimate. For significant dispatch delays before handoff to FedEx, we may offer the option to wait or to cancel the order with a full refund.

How do I pay for a high-value Charizard card?

All payments are made in Japanese yen, and you can pay by Wise bank transfer, PayPal, or credit and debit card through PayPal (payment methods). Wise bank transfer is the only method without the 5% payment processing fee; PayPal and card payments carry it.

The payment page says any difference between the amount we charge and the amount on your statement, from exchange rates or conversion fees, is set by your payment provider or bank and is outside our control. That matters for a card listed in yen at several hundred thousand yen or more.

If you pay by Wise, enter the payment reference SST-{order number} in the transfer reference field exactly as issued. If you pay by SWIFT, a receiving fee of JPY 611 is deducted before the funds reach us, so add JPY 611 to your order total, and select the OUR charge option so correspondent bank fees are covered on your side. Payments are confirmed during our business hours in the order received.

Check your shipping address before you pay. While an order is paid and its shipment has not yet been scheduled, you can update the shipping address yourself from My Account > Orders. The destination country cannot be changed, and the carrier, shipping method and FedEx service level stay as selected at checkout. If shipping to the new address costs more, we ask you to pay the difference before dispatch.
