Salazzle · Ascended Heroes, what to know.
About the Salazzle card
Numbered 224 of 250 in Ascended Heroes, released in April 2026, Salazzle is an Illustration Rare, a Stage 1 Fire-type carrying 120 HP.
It evolves from Salandit, so Salazzle is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Salazzle carries this Pokédex flavor text: "When two Salazzle meet, they will use their pheromone gas to fight over the males in each other’s group."
What is Salazzle worth?
Salazzle is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Ascended Heroes's value. The rarity tier decides most of it, since the same card prints at several tiers with very different prices. In top-grade 1st Edition, Ascended Heroes holos range from the mid hundreds for the lesser cards up to the set's marquee chase; raw and Unlimited copies trade for a fraction of that. The live market price above shows the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Salazzle before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
For graded buyers, the holo window on Salazzle is where most points are won or lost. Surface scratches and foil misregistration are common on these cards, and centering was inconsistent enough that clean PSA 10s stay scarce. Read the fire foil at a 45-degree angle under strong light before committing.
If you are collecting Salazzle
When you go to buy Salazzle, settle three things in order: the print variant, the condition, and a comp for that exact combination. A blended average across variants will mislead you on Salazzle, so price the specific copy in front of you.
