What Is Centiskorch VMAX Worth?
Centiskorch VMAX (Holofoil variant) is an ultra-rare chase card from SWSH03: Darkness Ablaze, card number 034/189. On PokeCardWorth we focus on one question — what is it actually worth — and at its current valuation, it is an affordable, easy-to-find card best valued as part of a complete set rather than on its own.
Centiskorch VMAX Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Centiskorch VMAX (SWSH03: Darkness Ablaze, 034/189) is worth around $1.61 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.61, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.88. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.61, Lightly Played $1.78, Moderately Played $1.41, Heavily Played $1.33, Damaged $0.88 — so grading the condition correctly before you buy or sell matters more than almost anything else. A PSA 10 (Gem Mint) example is valued near $23.00 — about 14x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $14.50.
Is It Worth Grading Centiskorch VMAX?
