Collector’s notes
Base Set Charizard brings together the original yellow border, framed holographic artwork and an instantly recognisable Pokémon. A focal point for a first-generation binder.
- Before you collect
- Distinguish 1st Edition, shadowless and unlimited printings. Inspect foil scratches and back-edge wear; the catalog image does not certify a seller’s copy.
- A collection idea
- Pair it with Base Set Charmander and Charmeleon, or with Blastoise and Venusaur.

About the copy you buy
This is a card reference, not a listing for an individual copy. The artwork does not establish condition or authenticity. Ask for clear front, back and angled surface photos.
Raw means professionally ungraded. For a graded card, match the grading company and grade, and check its certification record with that company before comparing prices.
