07Why Collectors Want It
- Released in 2023's Obsidian Flames, the SV-era set built around the headline Charizard ex chase and a deep IR/SIR slate.
- Sits at slot 225, completing the IR trio (Pidgey #207, Pidgeotto #208, Pidgeot ex #225) — line collectors usually grab all three together.
- Raw ~$18 vs. PSA 10 ~$150 — a clean ~8× modern-era lift; modern IR centering and edge wear are the usual downgrades.
- A natural pickup for any modern Pidgeot-line collector or Obsidian Flames IR completionist.

10Grading and Population
PSA 10 estimate: Modern Illustration Rare; PSA 10 population is climbing as collectors submit chase cards.
Centering and edge wear are common downgrade reasons; verified PSA 10s carry meaningful premiums.
Other graders: CGC submissions trend up for modern IRs; PSA remains the resale standard.
