About Gengar VMAX

Gengar VMAX 271/264 is the English Fusion Strike alternate-art secret version of Gengar VMAX. Collectors search for it because it combines a popular Pokémon, a distinctive full-card illustration, and a high-volume modern graded market.

Why this card matters

Verified factThe official Fusion Strike checklist places Gengar VMAX outside the normal 264-card set numbering as card 271/264, which identifies it as a secret-numbered version rather than the regular Gengar VMAX. The card is searched heavily because it is a modern alternate-art chase card from a large Sword & Shield expansion released on November 12, 2021. Its market should be read as a specific card-and-grade market, not as a general price for any Gengar VMAX. [1][2][3]

Identifying the exact version

Verified factUse the collector number, language, and artwork first. The target version is English Fusion Strike 271/264; the regular Fusion Strike Gengar VMAX is a different card number and should not be merged into comps. Slabbed copies should have the PSA subject line FA/Gengar VMAX and the Fusion Strike-Secret variety. For raw copies, verify the full-card alternate artwork, texture, back condition, and that the photos show the exact card being sold. [1][3]

What moves the price between versions and grades

AnalysisRecent PSA data show separate markets by grade. On PSA cert pages opened for this research, PSA 10 sales were reported above recent PSA 9 sales, while PSA 8 sales were lower again. That spread is not a grading guarantee: PSA standards evaluate centering, corners, surface, gloss, and other defects, and PSA warns that even pack-fresh cards may miss Gem Mint. Treat grade, cert, and visible eye appeal as separate comp filters. [3][4][5][7]

Authenticity checks

Verified factCompare the card against official references, then run multiple physical checks rather than relying on one sign. Confirm the exact card number, artwork, texture, holo treatment, English text, set symbol, size, borders, back design, and seller-provided front and back photos. For slabs, match the certification record to the label and card, but do not stop there: PSA warns that valid certification numbers can be copied onto counterfeit labels. Do not perform destructive tests. [1][6][7]

Identity note: Seed identity is correct; PSA labels this as 2021 Pokémon Sword & Shield Fusion Strike #271 FA/Gengar VMAX Fusion Strike-Secret.
Why collectors look this card up: TCGscreener ranks it #67 most-graded Pokemon card, 27k+ PSA submissions. source 1

What people get wrong about this card

Any Gengar VMAX sale is a usable comp for 271/264.
The knowledge base requires exact identity; Fusion Strike 157/264, Japanese copies, raw cards, and different grades must be separated from English 271/264.
A large PSA 10 population means the card cannot be expensive.
Population is a graded-copy count, not a print run or demand measurement; price still depends on matching sales and current market depth.
A valid PSA cert number alone proves the slab is genuine.
PSA warns that copied certification numbers exist, so the physical slab and card still need inspection.
A single high sale establishes the card's value.
The pricing chapter requires dated sold comps, exclusions, and separate grade/variant buckets rather than one headline sale.
