Even though i’m super tired of seeing new cards of charizard i have to agree that the design is great and the peak cards are extremely good. Top 5 is an easy one for me:
I think I voted for like 80% of these cards. Sorry, I just love Charizard. There are so many amazing cards. Dark Charizard is my fav card of all time, so knowing it probably won’t win overall hurts a bit.
I really wanted this to be tough… But, it wasn´t. If you ever were lucky enough to unpack a Base Set Charizard from a Base Set boosterpack, then that´s the ultimate Pokémoncard.
Agreed. Although I don´t like M Charizard Y a lot either. It´s basically Charizard but worse. The X variant was a big hit.
That kaiju illustration was so special they released it everywhere but the country that birthed the term kaiju
we need @TCAGaming to weigh in on this
that charizard vmax, man it’s a shame the psa pop is so high because it makes this card less iconic
but damn I must say that artwork is amazing
I voted for the V from the UPC. I love the chill zard with the fires and Venusaur looking stout n the background.
I’m a big fan of Mega Charizard Y, both design wise and as a gladiator. Mega Charizard X is ok, maybe a little too fan-servicey for my taste, but the shiny version is very green.
I don’t quite see how pop has something to do with artwork being good or bad, besides base zard is one of the most graded cards and i don’t see people whining that it has too big pop to be iconic. Everyone collects in a way the like it but it feels a bit artificial if the print size or pop takes something away from the artwork, i think it’s great that they released a card this beautiful in a way more people could enjoy it which rather makes it more iconic imo. But yes, it sure is an amazing artwork, one of the best modern cards!
it doesnt take away from the artwork,
it takes away from the card being “special”
I think its one of the top 5 zard artworks ever, but I’m not in a rush to buy one as its literally a couple of dollars and I can grab it anytime. There are 17,655 psa10s,
you simply cant compare this to base zard which has a tiny fraction of this comparatively
part of what makes a card iconic is the chase. Rarity is extremely important in card collecting.
For me it feels special, like said everyone collects in a way they like it so rarity is important for some collectors and for some it means nothing, i rather concentrate on beautiful artwork than artificial numbers like psa pop and i’m perfectly happy collecting that way
you can pick as many as you like. we’re trying to see which receive the most likes.
I’ve bought my three favorite Charizard cards/artworks a few years back.
Although from newer releases, the Charzard with Venusaur in the background; the Charizard in the arena; and Special Delivery Bidoof are all three pretty cool as well.
That reminds me, I still have to buy that Charizard with Venusaur for my collection…

Hope you got a good deal on the shadowless
Ive been trying to pick up a nice copy myself but dont want to break the bank
Keep in mind there is another charizard vs venusaur card from Brilliant Stars
Wish I had gotten 276 when I got back into collecting. Its still one of my favorite looking charizard cards but the price is a bit much for my non-deck card budget.
Yeah, that’s the one I meant at the bottom of my post, which I still have to pick up. Although I likely go for the Japanese, or another Asian variant.
As for the price I paid for my Shadowless Charizard, I’ve looked back and it was apparently 435 USD + 35 shipping back in Feb./Mar. 2021 (it’s in played condition btw, but mostly at the back, so overall a nice binder copy ).
I understand the feeling. It’s also the reason why I bought these three Charizard near the start of 2021 to begin with, since prices kept increasing and soon I wouldn’t have been able to justify buying them at all (for something outside of my collection goals).

I love the first ever full art Charizard #100 from Flashfire. So underrated to me !
I guess here is my top charizard cards
there is a little more than a day left on this for anyone who has yet to cast their votes!
