Pokemon TCG has shared a new version of the Charizard card in the Pokemon TCG Scarlet and Violet expansion, Obsidian Flames. This amazing card looks amazing with its complex and intricate details while being in its Terastalized form. Given that this is a Secret Illustration Rare card and the fact that it is a Charizard, the value of this card is expected to be extra in terms of its price and we're not going to lie that in the future, this will be an automatic collector's item. Even if fans are still divided with this new gimmick that Pokemon has introduced with Terastalizing, this will definitely be one of the most sought after cards not just for the expansion pack, but for the year.
