Charizard ex - 183/165 - SV: Scarlet & Violet 151 (MEW) Pokemon
Charizard needs no introduction — and in the Scarlet & Violet 151 (MEW) set, the franchise's most iconic Pokémon gets one of its finest modern card treatments. Numbered 183/165, this is a secret rare Ultra Rare that sits beyond the set's standard 165-card count, making it one of the most sought-after pulls in the entire expansion. The artwork by PLANETA Mochizuki delivers a full holofoil Stage 2 Charizard ex built for both the binder and the battle mat — packing high HP alongside attacks Brave Wing and Explosive Vortex that keep it relevant in competitive play.
Scarlet & Violet 151 is the defining collector set of the modern Pokémon TCG era. Released September 22, 2023, it was the first time all 151 original Kanto Pokémon appeared together in a single TCG expansion since the early Wizards of the Coast days — a gap of over 20 years. Cards are organized in true Pokédex order from Bulbasaur (#001) to Mew (#151), with secret rares like this Charizard ex extending beyond that count for collectors chasing the master set. The set was distributed exclusively through curated bundles rather than traditional booster boxes, limiting supply and sustaining demand.
