2019 Pokemon Charizard GX S&M Hidden Fates Shiny Vault #SV49 BGS 10 Black Label
Price: $7,900.00
Charizard GX from the SV Black Star Promos, specifically the Hidden Fates Shiny Vault subset, #SV49. This one’s slabbed in a BGS 10, and yeah, it’s that pristine Black Label where every subgrade hits a perfect 10.
The artwork on this shiny version? It’s got Charizard roaring mid-flight, wings flared wide against a stormy backdrop. That metallic sheen on the shiny foil really makes the flames pop without overdoing it.
Key text keeps it straightforward: Fire type, 250 HP as a Stage 2 evolution from Charmeleon. Ability is none here, but attacks include Wing Attack for 70 damage, Crimson Storm dishing out 300 while discarding three Fire energies, and the GX move Flare Blitz-GX slamming 200 with all Fire energies discarded. Solid powerhouse for any Fire deck back in the day.
Set dropped in 2019 as part of the Sun & Moon era’s Hidden Fates expansion. What stands out about this printing? It’s from the Shiny Vault, a special subset loaded with shiny Pokémon, and this Charizard GX was a chase card right from the start. Unlike the regular versions, the shiny treatment gives it that extra glow, pulling from promo vibes but tucked into booster packs. Hidden Fates was a limited release, so pulling this in shiny form felt like hitting the lottery without the hype.
Slab-wise, BGS 10 means it’s flawless—centering dead on, edges sharp as a Tackle, surfaces clean, corners like they just came off the press. Eye appeal is strong with that rainbow holo pattern shining through the case. Pop reports? From what I’ve seen in recent checks, BGS 10s for this card are scarce, maybe around 20 or so total, and Black Labels even rarer, like single digits if memory serves. Collectors chase these for the perfection, not the flash.
I’d stash this one in a display case where the light catches that shiny foil just right, maybe next to some classic fire types for old times’ sake.
