Charizard VMAX from the Shiny Star V set, that’s the rainbow secret rare numbered 308/190, sitting pretty in a PSA 10 slab. This one’s a beast, no doubt.
The artwork? It’s got Charizard roaring mid-flight, wings spread wide with that shiny rainbow foil popping against a stormy sky. Hits different when you see it up close, like the dragon’s about to burst out.
On the card text, it’s a Fire type with a solid 330 HP. No Ability here, but the attacks pack heat: Claw Slash does 130 damage for three energy, straightforward smackdown. Then G-Max Wildfire slams for 300, but you discard two Fire energy from it afterward. High risk, high reward in a deck—I’ve seen it turn games around in casual plays.
Shiny Star V dropped in 2020 as Japan’s big shiny-focused set, basically the precursor to stuff like Hidden Fates but with a twist. What makes this printing stand out? It’s the rainbow variant of the shiny Charizard VMAX, pulling from the VMAX Climax vibes but earlier. The set had crazy pull rates for shinies, making this card a chase for folks who dig alternate art without the English print quirks. Not every set nails that shiny aesthetic like this one does, especially with the rainbow border framing the whole thing.
Slab-wise, this PSA 10 is clean as they come—centering looks dead-on, maybe 55/45 at worst, but the eye appeal is through the roof with zero print lines or edge wear. That foil shines under light without hazing. Pop report wise, from what I recall, PSA has graded around 800 or so in 10s for this exact card, though that’s just an estimate based on collector chatter and reports floating around. Keeps it rare enough without being impossible.
I’d stash this one in a display case where the light catches that rainbow just right, maybe next to some old Base Set stuff for contrast.
