Logan Paul has long been a big name in the Pokemon card world, and he recently broke down why Charizard cards stay strong even when supply ramps up. Fans on PokemonPricing.com know Charizard as the ultimate collector’s prize, that fiery dragon from the original Base Set with 120 HP and a killer Fire Spin attack that could wipe out most opponents back in the day.[1] Paul points out its special edge comes from pure nostalgia and icon status, not just rarity.
He explains that unlike newer cards flooded by print runs, Charizard holds value because it’s the face of Pokemon for millions. People grew up with it as the final evolution from Charmander, hitting level 36 to become this Fire/Flying beast with mega forms boasting 634 total stats.[1] Paul says collectors chase the thrill of owning a piece of history, like first-edition versions that once topped $1,000 or even $150 for regulars.[1] Reprints in sets like Base Set 2 and Legendary Collection keep it around, but prices resist crashing because demand never fades.
Paul compares it to hype items that stick around no matter the supply. He notes Charizard’s artwork and power in early games make it timeless, pulling in new buyers while old fans hold tight. On his streams and posts, he shows off his collection to prove the point: even with more cards out there, sealed Charizard packs or high-grade holos climb because everyone wants the king.
For PokemonPricing.com users tracking values, Paul’s take means watch for condition and edition over raw print numbers. Charizard’s pull keeps it above the oversupply trap that hits lesser cards. He wraps his thoughts by saying it’s about cultural staying power, turning a simple card into a forever asset.
