## How to identify each version

- **Special Illustration Rare**: Use the English Phantasmal Flames set name, collector number 125/094, Special Illustration Rare rarity, danciao illustrator credit, and the artwork with Mega Charizard X over the Charmander line. Do not merge it with #013/094 Double Rare, #109/094 Ultra Rare, or #130/094 Mega Hyper Rare.

**Identity note:** Seed year corrected from 2026 to 2025. Official product materials place Mega Evolution—Phantasmal Flames release on November 14, 2025; the collector number is treated as 125/094, not just 125.

## Why this card matters

Mega Charizard X ex 125/094 sits in the second Mega Evolution-era English expansion and was previewed by Pokemon before the November 14, 2025 launch. Its demand is tied to the exact SIR treatment, not just the Charizard name: the set contains several Mega Charizard X ex printings with different numbers and treatments. For CardVolume, this makes the card useful as a clean example of Chapter 02 identity work: same character and same set are still not enough to price the object.

## Identifying the exact version

The exact English card is Mega Charizard X ex, Phantasmal Flames, 125/094, Special Illustration Rare, illustrated by danciao. The front should show the 125/094 collector number and the SIR rarity symbol, and the PSA label style found in cert records names it as 2025 Pokemon PFL EN-Phantasmal Flames #125 Mega Charizard X ex Special Illustration Rare. Do not substitute the Double Rare, Ultra Rare, Mega Hyper Rare, Japanese release, or any Black Star promo when building comps.

## What moves the price between versions and grades

The opened PSA cert pages show a wide separation between PSA 10 and PSA 9 comparable sales in September 2026. PSA 10 rows on one source page cluster around four-figure eBay results, while PSA 9 rows on another page are much lower. That spread is grade-specific evidence, not proof that raw cards will grade at the higher level. Chapter 04 applies directly: centering, surface, corners, edges, and hidden defects can change the financial comparison even when the card is pack fresh.

## Authenticity checks

Compare the card against official Phantasmal Flames references and the exact PSA cert details when buying a slab. Use several checks together: collector number, set, language, rarity, texture, print quality, back design, seller photos, and holder details. Do not use destructive tests, and do not rely on a cert lookup alone because copied certification numbers exist. A listing should show the same physical card, front and back, and the slab should match the cert record before any sale is treated as comparable.

## Common misconceptions

- **Myth:** Any Mega Charizard X ex from Phantasmal Flames is the same comp. **What the evidence says:** The set has multiple Mega Charizard X ex printings, so the SIR 125/094 must be separated from #013, #109, and #130. This is the exact-identity rule in ch02.
- **Myth:** The PSA population is the print run. **What the evidence says:** The population count is a PSA graded-copy count at a point in time; it does not count raw, sealed, unsubmitted, or other-grader copies. This is explicitly rejected in ch02.
- **Myth:** A PSA 10 sale tells you what every raw copy is worth. **What the evidence says:** A PSA 10 sale is a graded comp for PSA 10 copies only. Raw copies need raw comps or a grading scenario with costs and probabilities, per ch03 and ch04.
- **Myth:** A valid cert number authenticates the slab by itself. **What the evidence says:** PSA warns that valid numbers can be copied, so the physical slab and card still need inspection. This is covered in ch04 and ch06.

### How do I tell the SIR from the other Phantasmal Flames Mega Charizard X ex cards?

Use the collector number 125/094, Special Illustration Rare rarity, and danciao artwork; other same-name versions use different numbers and treatments.
