The Vaporeon — 189/184 — S8b: VMAX Climax — CGC Pristine 10 is one of the most coveted Eeveelution cards the Pokémon TCG has ever produced, and this copy sits at the absolute pinnacle of condition.

189/184 is a beyond-the-set-number secret rare — a Character Rare (CHR) full-art holo that pairs Vaporeon with its iconic Trainer in a scene-driven illustration. VMAX Climax reintroduced Character Rares to the Pokémon TCG — full-art cards depicting an iconic Trainer alongside their Pokémon — making the CHR slot the most sought-after pull in the set. The High Class Pack VMAX Climax released in Japan on December 3, 2021 , with a total of 285 cards, including 184 cards in the main set and 28 Character Rares. With only a box average of roughly 3–4 CHR cards per box, landing this Vaporeon CHR raw was already a win — having it grade CGC Pristine 10 puts it in a class almost no copies reach.

Vaporeon is perennially one of the most beloved and collected Eeveelutions, and the VMAX Climax CHR format — full-art cards with Pokémon and Trainers together in a single illustration — gives it a presentation no standard set card matches. PriceCharting tracks 29 recorded CGC Pristine 10 sales for this card, confirming the market is active and buyers are paying a premium over lower grades. The CGC Pristine 10 label is the differentiator — raw and lower-graded copies are plentiful, but a flawless slab of this specific Vaporeon CHR is what serious Eeveelution and VMAX Climax set collectors compete for.
