PSA 10 Charizard VMAX SWSH261 SWSH: Sword & Shield Promo Cards Holo

Price: $420.00

Charizard VMAX SWSH261 from the Sword & Shield Promo Cards set, holo rarity, slabbed PSA 10. This one’s a beast in the promo lineup, no doubt. The artwork shows Charizard in full VMAX mode, wings spread wide with that fiery glow lighting up the scene. It’s got this intense stare that just pulls you in, flames bursting everywhere like it’s about to unleash hell on the battlefield.

On the card text, it’s a Fire type with a massive 330 HP. The Ability is G-Max Wildfire, dealing 300 damage but you have to discard 2 Energy from it afterward. Attacks include the standard VMAX stuff, but that big one hits hard if you’re building a fire deck. Simple, effective shorthand for a powerhouse.

This promo dropped in 2020 as part of the Sword & Shield era expansions, tied to things like the Champion’s Path set. What stands out here is it’s not from a main booster pack; it’s a special release, often bundled with boxes or as a standalone holo. Collectors dig it because it’s a modern take on the classic Charizard vibe, blending nostalgia with the VMAX mechanics that shook up competitive play. Not every promo gets this level of attention, but this printing nailed the evolution from V to VMAX, making it a staple for fire-themed collections.

Slab-wise, this PSA 10 is clean as they come. Centering looks spot on, probably 10/10 there, with sharp corners and no surface issues that I can spot. Edges are pristine, giving it that fresh-out-of-pack eye appeal. From what I’ve seen in pop reports, the PSA 10 population for SWSH261 sits around 800 or so last I checked—decent but not flooded, which keeps it interesting for slab hunters. No major flaws jumping out; it’s the kind of grade that makes you double-check the label.

I’d keep this one in a display case, maybe next to some older ‘Zards for that evolution lineup feel.
