Trivia
- This card was once the most sought-after card in the entire Pokémon TCG; the fact that it is a Charizard card and it does 100 damage was a major factor in its appeal. Various versions of this card have been sold anywhere starting at $30, with the original 1st Edition Wizard of the Coast version selling for an average of $150, and even for more during the height of its popularity.
- The Charizard included in the "Pokémon Best Collection" CD has the Pikachu Records logo in place of an Expansion symbol.
Origin
Fire Spin is a move in the Pokémon games that Charizard can learn. This card's English Base Set Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, though it is slightly reworded. The Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green. The Stormfront Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon FireRed.
