*The first {{TCG|1st Edition}} symbol used on an English US Holofoil rare Charizard was on the 1999 Base Set 4/102. The auciton price for this card in the highest PSA grades have reached upwards of $220,000 US.
*The first {{TCG|1st Edition}} symbol used on a Japanese Holofoil rare Charizard was the Dark Charizard from the {{TCG|Pokémon Web}} series, 042/48, released in 2001. This marked the first time both a Charizard and a Dark Charizard (as they were the same card) debuted with the {{TCG|1st Edition}} symbol in Japan. This is because the Japanese TCG did not have a 1st Edition symbol in its original Base Set release in 1996. The price for this card in the highest PSA grades have greatly increased in value due to its debut history and the scarcity of the {{TCG|Pokémon Web}} booster packs.
