About the Expansion

Pokémon TCG: XY—Evolutions was released in 2016 as part of the Pokémon TCG XY Series.

The expansion was designed to celebrate the appearance and history of the original Pokémon Trading Card Game. It brought back familiar layouts, illustrations, Pokémon, Trainer cards, and visual elements inspired by the original Base Set while updating the cards for the XY era.

Charizard 11/108 is one of the clearest examples of this nostalgic design. It uses the famous Mitsuhiro Arita Charizard illustration associated with the original Base Set card, but includes updated HP, attacks, terminology, card numbering, set symbols, and 2016 copyright information.   – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108

XY—Evolutions became especially popular with long-term collectors and returning Pokémon fans because it connected the early history of the Pokémon TCG with a more modern card release.

Featured Cards and Pokémon

Charizard Holo #11/108

Charizard 11/108 is the featured card in this listing.   – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108

It is a Stage 2 Fire-type Pokémon that evolves from Charmeleon and has 150 HP. Its Energy Burn Ability treats all attached Energy as Fire Energy.

Its Fire Spin attack deals 200 damage and requires three attached Energy cards to be discarded after the attack.     – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108

The card is officially classified as a Holo Rare. It is not a Pokémon-EX card, promotional card, Secret Rare card, or reverse-holo-only card.

Classic Charizard Artwork

The artwork is credited to Mitsuhiro Arita, whose original Charizard illustration became one of the most recognizable images in Pokémon card collecting.

The XY—Evolutions printing preserves the familiar flying Charizard pose and orange holographic background while adapting the card to the 2016 Pokémon TCG format.

This nostalgic artwork is why the card is sometimes described as a “Classic Charizard Holo.” However, its accurate identification is:   – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108

Rare Cards and Collecting Highlights

PSA NM-MT 8 Grade

The card received a numerical grade of PSA 8, displayed on the slab label as NM-MT 8.

PSA evaluates trading cards using factors such as:

• Centering
• Corners
• Edges           – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108
• Surface condition
• Print quality
• Focus
• Overall visual presentation

A PSA 8 card is considered Near Mint-Mint. It may show minor imperfections that prevent it from receiving a Mint 9 or Gem Mint 10 grade.

The card should not be advertised as flawless, perfect, Mint, or Gem Mint.

Holo Rare Finish

This card is the standard Holo Rare version of Charizard 11/108.

The illustration area has a holographic finish, while the rest of the card retains the classic yellow-border design associated with earlier Pokémon cards.

The PSA label correctly identifies the card as Charizard-Holo.       – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108

Holo and Reverse-Holo Difference

XY—Evolutions also includes a reverse-holo version of Charizard 11/108.

The card in this listing is the regular Holo Rare version, not the reverse-holo version. The PSA label does not identify it as “Reverse Foil.”

This distinction should remain clear in the:

• Image ALT text
• Meta description
• WooCommerce categories
• Product photographs

Base Set-Inspired Collecting

This card is not an original 1999 Base Set Charizard.

It is a 2016 XY—Evolutions printing inspired by the classic Base Set design.   – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108

The year, expansion name, card number, HP, attack damage, set symbol, copyright information, and card layout distinguish it from the original Base Set Charizard.

Accurate identification protects buyers from confusion and ensures the product is listed under the correct expansion.

Competitive Play

Charizard 11/108 was designed as a playable Stage 2 Pokémon during the XY era.

Its Energy Burn Ability allows all attached Energy to function as Fire Energy. Fire Spin can deal 200 damage, but it requires four Energy and forces the player to discard three attached Energy after attacking.

This specific card cannot be used during gameplay while it remains inside the PSA holder.   – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108

The card also predates the regulation-mark system used for modern Pokémon TCG Standard legality. Its main purpose today is collecting, professional display, graded-set building, and preservation rather than current Standard tournament play.

Collectors interested in using the card in casual play would need an ungraded copy rather than removing this example from its PSA slab.

• Store it in a dry environment   – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108
• Do not place heavy objects on the holder

• Clean only the outside of the holder
• Avoid abrasive cleaning products     – PSA 8 Pokémon TCG XY Evolutions Charizard Holo #11/108
