Secret rare numbering pushes Charmander to 98, beyond EX Dragon's standard checklist and alongside its full evolutionary line. The 2003 release combines Mitsuhiro Arita artwork, Kanto nostalgia, and early EX-era presentation without making Charmander an ex card.

Why Charmander #98 is priced where it is

Charmander #98 is a Rare Secret Pokémon card from EX Dragon, the EX era (2003). It ranks as number 7 by price out of 100 cards in the set, so it is one of the cards collectors chase when opening packs. A PSA 10 sells for about 10x the raw price, so centering and surface condition decide most of what a copy is worth. Its price has held almost flat over the last 30 days ($171.45 to $171.45). The illustration is by Mitsuhiro Arita.

Is it worth grading? Although high-grade copies command a substantial premium, Charmander's already elevated raw band calls for careful screening before grading. Watch the foil surface for fine scratches, then inspect border wear and corner whitening, common grade limiters on early EX-era cards.

Mitsuhiro Arita's credit is central to Charmander's appeal, especially when all three secret rare evolutionary stages are displayed together. The card supplies the opening step of EX Dragon's hidden Kanto sequence and a compact bridge between early-series nostalgia and the 2003 EX period.
