5. Alcremie VMAX - $5.83
Set: Sword & Shield: Champion's Path
Card Number: 023/073
Rarity: Rare Holo VMAX
Gigantamax Alcremie towers over the card like a giant, swirling cake. It's pink, white, and covered in sweets, with a swirl of rainbow light behind it. Its G-Max Whisk attack is a fun fit for a Pokémon made of cream.
4. Drednaw VMAX - $6.44
Set: Sword & Shield: Champion's Path
Card Number: 075/073
Rarity: Rainbow Rare
Drednaw glows in rainbow colors, with its big jaws and spiky shell filling the card. Its Solid Shell ability cuts damage from attacks, which fits a tough turtle. It's a quirky Rainbow Rare for fans of Galar's Water and Rock types.
3. Gardevoir VMAX - $17.34
Set: Sword & Shield: Champion's Path
Card Number: 076/073
Rarity: Rainbow Rare
Gardevoir looks up with a calm face while rainbow colors flow around its gown. It's the most elegant card in the set. Gardevoir has been a fan-favorite since Ruby and Sapphire, and its Max Cure attack heals, which matches its gentle look.
2. Charizard VMAX - $202.68
Set: Sword & Shield: Champion's Path
Card Number: 074/073
Rarity: Rainbow Rare
The rainbow Charizard VMAX shows a huge Gigantamax Charizard in every color of the spectrum. It's the second most valuable card in Champion's Path, and it's a long way ahead of the cards below it. This set was made for Charizard fans, and it shows.
1. Charizard V - $257.47
Set: Sword & Shield: Champion's Path
Card Number: 079/073
Rarity: Shiny Rare V
The shiny Charizard V is the undisputed top pull in Champion's Path. Charizard is jet black with red wings, and yellow sparkles fill the card. It sells for more than the rainbow VMAX, which is a little surprising. Charizard is the king of Pokémon cards, and a black shiny one is hard to beat.
