The middle step counts every card that records a Pokédex number, including Pokémon too small to have a page of their own. That is why its figure is larger than the totals on the Pokédex number list, which only counts the groups it can open.

Charmander Pokémon cards at a glance

  • What this group is. 46 cards share the Pokédex number Charmander. The Pokédex number ties every print of the same Pokémon together, whatever the set is called and whatever extra words the card name carries. Grouping by the number keeps prints of one Pokémon in one place instead of scattering them by name.
  • What they cost. The typical card is $14.47. Across the 42 priced cards the range runs $0.16 to $616.33.
  • Where it stands. No. 63 of 206 Pokémon by typical price, with 143 of them cheaper.
  • What the cards are like. They average 60 HP and 22 maximum damage, and are most often weak to Water.
  • What is listed below. Every one of the 46 cards that carries a price, each with its own price page. The other 4 are counted in the total but have no published price, so they are not listed.
  • When it was read. Every figure on this page comes from the archive as it stood on August 14, 2026.

How Charmander Pokémon card prices are spread

One number cannot describe a group whose cards run from a few dollars to several thousand. These four points and the bands under them show the shape of it.

An average hides the shape of a group. These four points say where the money actually sits among Charmander cards.

How much HP and damage Charmander Pokémon cards print

An average hides the shape of a group: it reads the same whether every Charmander card prints the same number or they run from one end of the scale to the other. These five points show which of the two is happening.

HP405060708046

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 46 Charmander cards that carry one. The typical card is 60 HP. Bar length is that HP against the highest in the group.

Half of these cards sit between 50 and 70 HP. The distance between the two ends is what a single average would have hidden.

Can you still play Charmander Pokémon cards, and what do they cost to retreat?

Price is only half of what separates this group from the one next to it. These are the conditions you meet when you actually put a Charmander card on the table, across all 46 of them.
The card shown is Charmander. It is Legendary Collection #70, Common. This group holds 46 Pokémon cards on file.Printed in 2002

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 46 Charmander 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.

The cheapest Charmander Pokémon cards you can buy

Every list on this page so far has run from the top down. This one runs from the bottom, because the first question of anyone starting a Charmander collection is what it costs to get in.

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 $2.13, against $616.33 for the single dearest Charmander card. The two ends of the same group sit 3,852× apart, and both of them are correctly described as "Charmander".

How Charmander compares with the other Pokémon

A price on its own says nothing until you know what the group next to it costs. This is where Charmander sits among the 206 Pokémon on file.

"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, Charmander is number 33 of 206 Pokémon, on Legendary Collection #70 at $616.33. By card count it is number 26, and by the price of an ordinary card number 63 — three different answers to "is it the most expensive".

Charmander Pokémon cards — frequently asked questions

How many Charmander Pokémon cards are there?

There are 46 Charmander cards in this archive, and 42 of them carry a price. The Pokédex number ties every print of the same Pokémon together, whatever the set is called and whatever extra words the card name carries. Grouping by the number keeps prints of one Pokémon in one place instead of scattering them by name.

How much is a Charmander Pokémon card worth?

The typical one costs $14.47. Across the 42 priced cards the range runs from $0.16 to $616.33, so the group price is a starting point rather than a valuation of any one card.

What is the most expensive Charmander Pokémon card?

Charmander 70 from Legendary Collection, at $616.33. It is 43× the typical price of the group.

Are Charmander Pokémon cards rare?

By price they rank No. 63 of 206 Pokémon, with 143 cheaper than this one. By size the group holds 46 of the 20,444 English cards on file, or 0.2%. Those two together are what "rare" usually means in practice — few of them, and dear because of it.

Do all Charmander Pokémon cards have a price?

No. 42 of the 46 carry a price on file. The rest have never been listed at a price this archive could read, so they are counted in the card total but left out of every price figure rather than guessed at.

Where can I see every Charmander Pokémon card?

The list on this page holds the 46 most expensive of them, dearest first, and each card opens its own price page. The remaining 0 carry no published price, which is why they are not drawn.

How often are Charmander Pokémon card prices updated?

Prices are read once a day from public marketplace listings. The figures on this page were read on August 14, 2026. Which cards belong to this group comes from openly published card files and changes only when a new set is added.

Are Charmander Pokémon cards going up in value?

Over the last 11 months the typical Charmander card rose from $8.46 to $14.47, a change of +71.0%. That is the middle of the whole group, so it describes an ordinary card of this kind rather than the headline one at the top.

How much does a cheap Charmander Pokémon card cost?

One in four Charmander cards costs $2.03 or less and the cheapest on file is $0.16. Three in four cost $52.03 or less, so the cards past that point are the exception rather than the rule for this group.

Which Charmander Pokémon cards are worth the most?

Sorted by rarity, Common is the dearest kind of Charmander card: 34 of them are on file and the middle one costs $12.84. The table on this page lists every rarity in the group beside its own typical price.

What is the highest HP on a Charmander Pokémon card?

The highest printed HP among Charmander cards is 80, and the lowest is 40. The typical one is 60 HP, with half of them between 50 and 70 — figures counted from the 46 cards in this group that print an HP value.

Are Charmander Pokémon cards legal in tournaments?

10 of the 46 Charmander cards are legal in Standard today and 26 in Expanded — 21.7% and 56.5% of the group. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year even though the cards do not change.

Are old Charmander Pokémon cards worth more than new ones?

Not simply by age. Among Charmander cards the 2000 printings sit at a typical $13.17 and the 2023 ones at $47.75, while the dearest year of all is 2002 at $121.99. Print run and demand decide it, not the date on its own.

Which Charmander Pokémon card rose the most this year?

Charmander 59 from Arceus, which went from $15.97 to $80.59 — a change of +404.6% between August 14, 2025 and August 14, 2026. It is one of 29 Charmander cards that carried a price on both days.

Which sets have Charmander Pokémon cards?

Charmander cards appear across 10 sets on file. The largest are FireRed & LeafGreen (3 cards, typically $94.99), 151 (2 cards), Burning Shadows (2 cards). The full list on this page gives every set beside its card count and typical price.

Before you rely on these figures

Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Charmander cards, taken from a daily snapshot of public marketplace listings read on August 14, 2026. They are not offers, they exclude shipping, duty and marketplace fees, and they move. Counts cover only the English cards this site holds on file. Graded prices, population counts, sealed product values and pack odds are not published on this site because no free commercial source provides them.
