Pokémon TCG: Charizard Vstar #262 PSA 10 - Sword & Shield Black Star Promo
Charizard VSTAR SWSH262 – Black Star Promo in PSA 10
Here you get one of the most iconic and sought-after Pokémon TCG cards from the Sword & Shield era: Charizard VSTAR SWSH262 Black Star Promo, professionally graded to PSA 10 (Gem Mint). This is the English promo version that comes with the Sword & Shield Ultra-Premium Collection – Charizard, and is delivered as a single graded card in a PSA slab – not as a sealed box, booster or deck.
What makes this Charizard card unique?
Charizard VSTAR SWSH262 is a Black Star Promo released in 2022 and only available through the Ultra-Premium Collection. Illustrated by Kiyotaka Oshiyama, the card features a dramatic full-art design with Charizard bursting through flames. This promo version is not identical to Charizard VSTAR from Brilliant Stars, Crown Zenith or Japanese editions – this is the official English SWSH262 Black Star Promo.
Details about grading and authenticity
The card is graded by PSA (Professional Sports Authenticator) and has achieved the highest standard: PSA 10 Gem Mint. This means the card appears flawless with perfectly centered print, sharp corners and no visible defects – a quality level especially sought after by collectors of graded cards.
