Charmander #98 Value (EX Dragon)
Pokemon card price guide: raw and graded values, eBay sold prices and price history. Updated Nov 2, 2026.
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. Its market position is among the strongest in the set, with recent averages rising.

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.
