Collector Insights

Dark Charizard is a Fire-type Pokémon with 80 HP. It requires three Colorless Energy to retreat and has a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 30. Its weaknesses include Water-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card features two attacks: Nail Flick, which costs one Colorless Energy and deals 10 damage, and Continuous Fireball, which uses two Fire Energy to deal 50 damage multiplied by the number of heads from flipped coins. The latter also discards Fire Energy cards equal to the number of heads. Dark Charizard is part of the Base set, released in 2000 as part of the Team Rocket expansion. The card’s flavor text describes it as spewing fire like a volcano, attempting to burn everything in its path. Artist Ken Sugimori designed the card, which is numbered 21 and classified as a Rare card.

Seemingly possessed, it spews fire like a volcano, trying to burn all it sees.
