It was printed for the Garchomp vs Charizard SP Deck Kit, a product built around the LV.X mechanic that defined the Diamond \u0026amp; Pearl era, and it carries the 002\/016 numbering of that sixteen-card deck. For collectors of the period this is the closing chapter of the Charizard G line rather than an entry point to it: the LV.X sits above the Charizard G of the same deck and completes the pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWataru Kawahara's illustration works at the peak of the mechanic's visual language, the figure rising over a darkened landscape in the level-up framing reserved for LV.X cards. On the card, 120 HP and the Call for Power Poké-Power let the player search out the pieces needed to escalate, while Malevolent Fire converts that setup into 150 damage, one of the heavier attacks of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the card was distributed only inside a promotional half deck it was played and handled, and pristine survivors are scarcer than its print numbers suggest. This example has been authenticated and encapsulated by PSA at 10 GEM MINT, the highest grade the service awards, in a sealed holder that fixes both originality and the condition recorded. A natural centrepiece for a Japanese promotional collection, or for a Charizard run assembled by mechanics rather than by sets.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Collecto Archive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58063712878932,"sku":"4409","price":4345.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/9083\/7588\/files\/4409_1.png?v=1793447135","url":"https:\/\/collectoarchive.com\/products\/pokemon-charizard-g-lv-x-holo-charizard-half-deck-2009-japanese-psa-10","provider":"Collecto Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
