Comparison to Known Examples
This copy aligns with standard 'Double Rare' pull quality; it does not appear to be a special art rare (SAR) or full art.
Authentication Tips
Check for the correct weight, card stock thickness, and the specific diagonal holofoil pattern used in the SV era. Verified Japanese text for Ceruledge (ソウブレイズ).
Grading Recommendation
PSA or ARS (for Japanese cards). Worthiness is low due to high print volume unless seeking set completion.
Red Flags
No significant red flags observed; appears to be a genuine modern Japanese Pokémon card.
Provenance Notes
Commonly found in 'Night Wanderer' booster boxes distributed in Japan or imported internationally.
Historical Context
Introduced in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet; Ceruledge is the 'Fire/Ghost' evolution of Charcadet.
Market Trends
Ceruledge is a popular Gen 9 Pokémon, making it a fan favorite, though regular ex variants remain abundant and stable in price.
Investment Potential
Low as a single, higher as part of a complete master set of Japanese night wanderer.
