Mewtwo [1st Edition] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Base Set Mewtwo is one of the original English holo rares from the very first 102-card Pokémon TCG set, giving this 1st Edition copy instant status as a cornerstone of WotC-era collecting.
In-Game
This card hits harder the more Energy the opponent stacks, a fitting nod to Mewtwo’s original-game reputation as the overwhelming endgame boss waiting in Cerulean Cave after the Elite Four.
Card History
Pulling Base Set Mewtwo feels like holding a piece of the character’s biggest mythos, since Mewtwo’s origin as a lab-created Pokémon that turns on its creators became the core of Pokémon: Mewtwo Strikes Back.
Artist
The artwork is by Ken Sugimori, Pokémon’s original character designer, which gives this card an especially authentic Gen 1 feel for collectors who love early franchise art straight from the source.
Set Lore
The English Base Set launched on January 9, 1999, so a 1st Edition Mewtwo sits at the very beginning of the Pokémon TCG boom in North America.
