Trainer and energy cards carry no HP or attack, so they are left out of these counts rather than entered as zero. "Biggest attack" is the largest printed damage number on the card, before any condition the attack text adds.
HP printed on the 106 Charizard cards that carry one. The typical card is 220 HP. Bar length is that HP against the highest in the group.
Half of these cards sit between 160 and 270 HP. The distance between the two ends is what a single average would have hidden.

| Cards with an Ability | 33 | 31.1% |
| Cards with a special rule | 74 | 69.8% |
Standard and Expanded are the two tournament formats. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year while the card itself does not change.
Each track is the whole of the 106 Charizard cards on file, so the empty part of a bar is the share the answer does not cover.
The four rows are not slices of one whole — a card can be legal in Standard and carry an Ability at the same time, so the bars are read one at a time against the group.

Back to summaryThe cheapest Charizard Pokémon cards you can buy
Cheapest first. Each card opens its own price page. Prices exclude shipping, which on a card at this level is usually more than the card.
These six together cost $32.44, against $1,495.00 for the single dearest Charizard card. The two ends of the same group sit 338× apart, and both of them are correctly described as "Charizard".
How Charizard compares with the other Pokémon
"Which Pokémon is the most expensive" has three different answers depending on what you measure, so this section keeps them apart.
Ranked by its single dearest card, Charizard is number 9 of 206 Pokémon, on Neo Destiny #107 at $1,495.00. By card count it is number 2, and by the price of an ordinary card number 5 — three different answers to "is it the most expensive".
These are the Pokémon that sit next to Charizard on that ladder.
