Charizard ex 183/165 Full Art Ultra Rare Scarlet & Violet 151

Price: $52.00

Charizard ex from the Scarlet & Violet—151 set, numbered 183/165, clocks in as a Special Illustration Rare in raw condition. This one’s a full art stunner, with the artwork showing Charizard mid-roar, wings flared against a stormy backdrop that pulls in those dark vibes. The holo pattern dances across the flames and shadows, giving it that subtle pop when you tilt it just right.

On the card text side, it’s a Fire type with a Tera twist to Darkness, packing 330 HP as a Stage 2 evolution from Charmeleon. The Ability, Infernal Reign, lets you search your deck for up to three Basic Fire Energy cards and attach them to your Pokémon when you evolve into this beast—handy for ramping up fast. Then there’s the attack, Crimson Storm, which dishes out 300 damage but requires discarding two Energy from it. Weakness to Water, Resistance to none, and a retreat cost of two. Solid setup for aggressive Fire decks, especially if you’re building around energy acceleration.

This set dropped in 2023, celebrating the original 151 Pokémon with a mix of modern mechanics and nostalgic nods. Printing-wise, these SV cards often come with decent card stock, but raw copies can show minor centering shifts—maybe a touch off on the borders—or faint print lines in the holo foil. Edges might have a whisper of whitening from factory handling, nothing wild.

For raw condition details, let’s talk a clean copy: corners are sharp, no dings or bends that catch the eye. Edges hold up smooth, with minimal wear from shuffling or storage. Surface is clean, free of scratches or scuffs, and the holo flash stays vibrant without haze or dull spots. Centering sits around 60/40 top-bottom, pretty standard for the pull, keeping the artwork framed nicely.

Sleeve it up for your binder or let it chill in a top loader—keeps that artwork popping either way.
