Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $50 - $75 USD; PSA 10: $120 - $160 USD (Note: Traditional Chinese cards typically carry a lower premium than Japanese or English versions).
Recent Sales
Recent eBay and regional Asian marketplace sales for the Chinese SAR version range from $45 to $80 for raw copies depending on centering.
Condition Details
The centering appears slightly top-heavy. Edges and corners look sharp in the photo, though the top edge has slight glare that may hide minor whitening. Surface texture is consistent with high-rarity SV-era cards.
Grading Recommendation
Moderate Recommendation. While the Special Art Rare is the 'chase card' of the set, the Chinese market value is lower than its Japanese counterpart. Only grade if the surface is flawless and you believe it can achieve a PSA 10 for long-term holding.
Card Description
Ability: Infernal Reign - When you play this Pokémon from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokémon during your turn, you may search your deck for up to 3 Basic Fire Energy cards and attach them to your Pokémon in any way you like. Attack: Burning Darkness (180+) - Does 30 more damage for each Prize card your opponent has already taken.
Notable Features
Features a unique Tera-type crystalline hat/crown. Intricate fingerprint-like texture throughout the holofoil surface. Traditional Chinese regional mark (F) at bottom left.
Authentication Notes
Authentic. The distinct texture pattern, accurate font rendering of Traditional Chinese characters, and the specific holofoil refraction visible in the image are consistent with official Pokemon TCG production.
