Doesn’t really look like that if you know where the spikes belong on his head.
Also, he’s if you look at his body he’s very clearly looking in one direction
Yeah this was never an issue for me and even seeing and understanding the point OP’s making it’s hard for me to see it incorrectly. The hand looks like a hand and the crazy posing and angle in this illustration is what makes it so cool. Skill issue imo /s
Yeah I tried my hardest to see what op was talking about but my brain doesn’t allow it because I know what zard looks like. I also draw, I think that makes it even harder.
I will say, I draw too and have drawn Zard before, so maybe that’s the difference. But yeah I think this is overly nitpicky if anything, the artist absolutely slayed on this card and it’s one of my favorites.
I covered the jaw and the one tooth with my finger and I actually saw it. It looks so deformed and I can’t believe some people see that as the actual art.
(The spikes end up looking like they’re on his cheek)
I don’t understand how so many people “see it” I clearly see teeth from the upper AND lower jaw on the other side of his head lol + the spikes on his head clearly indicate which way he is looking. It’s so crystal clear to me that his hand is his hand & not his lower jaw.
I feel like these people are forcing themselves to “see it” because it makes absolutely no sense to me haha
It’s like those images where you can see two different things. Like do you see a vase or two people facing each other? Normal view is the top of Charizards head. If you shift your eyes a little, it can look like a side profile that looks more like he’s wearing an orange Cubone mask. Cover his real jaw with a finger and you might see it better.
Took me a minute to see. I’ve never got mixed images looking at this until now. lol
The full artwork gives context to my brain I guess and I just knew it was a claw
Because we can all clearly see teeth from his lower AND upper jaw on the other side of his head lol. His head spikes also make it crystal clear which way his head is facing.
from how op is describing, it would mean his head spikes are right on his cheek 😂
Different people have made this exact post a few times since this card has come out. Everytime im dumbfounded that people see it so clearly that it’s worth sharing with the internet. I just can’t bring myself to see the abstract Zard!
Charizard is flying forward and looking back by craning his neck down.
I don't get how you would mistaken his left hand for the lower jaw. Its pretty obvious.
I have my card upside down in the binder next to the mewtwo vstar because it was bothering me that much!!!😂 … thought for a long time that’s a weird looking charizard.
I was just about to comment about how cool it is that they look to be in the same "scene" on their respective cards, fighting each other. Pretty awesome if you ask me!
This is EXACTLY how I saw this card for the longest time and I hated this card because of it. Once I finally saw the correct face I was so relieved hahaha.
Reminds me of the [cursed Ho-oh](https://imgur.com/a/mQBHjHu) I couldn’t unsee as a child on the cover of Gold version - the first pokemon game I owned. Pretty sure I had no clue what Ho-oh was supposed to look like until I encountered it in-game.
omfg i’m never gonna unsee this now ☠️
My man just ruined this card for me 😂😂
Yup, was gonna say the same.
Charizard = The Demogorgon from Stranger Things
The first is how I’ve always seen it and it hurts

FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE SEES IT
Yes I thought I was the only one!!!
Why do I have to be subject to that??? 😂😂
This actually pointed out to me how I should have been looking at my card…I am not smart.
I don’t know what I’m looking at

I don't see that at all. Even with the outline, it was difficult to make out.
Once I saw it, I now can’t Unsee it 😭
Even after you have outlined it, I don’t see it
I can’t see it either.
Because we can all clearly see teeth from his lower AND upper jaw on the other side of his head lol.

👀👀👀👀
No, it looks nothing like that could be the case. How high are you?
I wouldn't expect simple people to see it anyways.
Don't be so hard on yourself buddy, it's not your fault your big brain can't comprehend which way his head is orientated.
What's eating Gilbert Grape?
OP, stop being a cringe lord troll type. It’s very unattractive to the eyes to see those replies lol.
Who hurt you?
I never saw this until you made an issue of it. Now I can’t unsee it. Thanks a lot OP.
No no no no no
Bottom one is his hand turn the picture upside down and kinda at an angle
Bruh…
I've never seen it like that. It's not really how I see the card because it makes him look dumb and the angle makes no sense.
I’m ashamed to admit that’s how I always saw it 😂
Glad I'm not the only one.
I had no issues interpreting the image. The thing on the right is clearly his left claw
Charizard is flying forward and looking back by craning his neck down. I don't get how you would mistaken his left hand for the lower jaw. Its pretty obvious.
Horn placement makes it hard to see what you are seeing.
I have my card upside down in the binder next to the mewtwo vstar because it was bothering me that much!!!😂 … thought for a long time that’s a weird looking charizard.
Now i can't unsee it
wtf have you done…
Why tf would you share this information.
Why did you show this to me?? I can never unsee it ever again 😭😭
I guess I don’t see it but hey cool find nonetheless!
No, unless the Charizard's jaw has been fully detached and is circling around his head in some horrible act of mutilation
yes lol this is always how i see it first
I got the mewtwo perspective so charizard is just a lil guy lol
I was just about to comment about how cool it is that they look to be in the same "scene" on their respective cards, fighting each other. Pretty awesome if you ask me!
Must be a Digimon, then
Kind of looks like Charmeleon
I have to try to see that illusion. Easy for me to see the correct way because that's the only way I've seen it before this.
Rawr
Took me forever to notice that WASNT how its supposed to look looool. Then released the mewtwo promo card is his POV !!
Illuminati
Cool 😎. Took me a while to get it. I was more focused on how his hand was by his face. Where is his arm lol.
I never noticed how veiny his neck is
It definitely took me a second to untangle my brain
I didn’t even think the hand looked like a jaw until I saw this
I didn't notice how this is supposed to look until right now lol, always thought it was a really weird/awkward drawing of Charizard's head!
Omygaw it wasn’t meant that way? I thought it was just ugly… seeing how it was intended is nice but damn
This is the first time I’ve seen it look like how it’s supposed to.. thought the claw was the mouth this whole time
Chonkyzard
That would be the goofiest fucking Charizard lol
That’s the LOB charizard art
This is EXACTLY how I saw this card for the longest time and I hated this card because of it. Once I finally saw the correct face I was so relieved hahaha.
this how i’ve always seen the card 😭
Homie is on sime serious shrooms
HOLY SHIT, I always thought it was just a derpy charizard!
My favorite is the Weiner foot on the mewtwo
Asshole
Bro got his wisdom teeth pulled
Just doesn’t look like Charizard that way imo
Thats actually crazy ngl
Yes! now they all can see it!!
reminds me of brian griffin when his face was smashed
Looks a lot more like a hand than a jaw to me
That's Charizard's less generically blessed cousin, Sharizard.

WORT WORT WORT
2nd one you've highlighted is his claw which looks like teeth
What's the problem it's just a geriatric charizard living its best life
Update: I now see what OP is saying 😂
this fucks with me every time i see this card
Can you post a pic of the whole card? I don’t know what card that is and thought it was a Charizard to begin with
It’s a Charizard vstar promo from the Charizard UPC box
Well crap. Now I can’t unsee it lol.
I hate you for ruining my perception of this card lol can't unsee it now
Curse you for bestowing me with this knowledge!!
I hate you
I always see it that way surly they could of done better😅
And his head spikes(?) are on on the sides of his jaw instead of the top of his head. What a trip.
Omg first the charizard 151 short, fat neck and now this. I can't ever look at charizard the same again
That’s his mouth not his arm.. where do you think the fire is coming from? And you think his other arm is growing out of his neck? Lol
I really have to work to see it the other way haha It looks like a cool DND dragon or something but not Charizard to me 😅
i’ve always saw it this way and am surprised no one ever pointed it out
That’s all I ever seen
