Provenance

Where it came from

The Armored Mewtwo card (SM228) was released in 2019 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's Sun & Moon Black Star Promos set. It was created to tie into the theatrical release of Pokémon: Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution, the CGI remake of the original 1998 film. The card was distributed through the Armored Mewtwo Figure Collection, providing fans with a physical representation of the character's appearance in the film's updated aesthetic.

The design features artwork by artist Hitoshi Ariga, who is well-regarded for his extensive contributions to the Pokémon TCG. The card depicts Mewtwo encased in the specialized suppressive armor used by Team Rocket in the film's narrative. Ariga’s illustration captures the imposing, clinical nature of the armor, which serves as a departure from Mewtwo’s traditional design. Upon its release, it was well-received by collectors for its unique aesthetic and its direct connection to the cinematic reboot.
