Provenance

Where it came from

The Mewtwo card (12/18) from the Detective Pikachu expansion was released in 2019 to coincide with the live-action film of the same name. As part of a specialized promotional set, these cards featured distinct CGI-rendered artwork designed to mirror the stylized, realistic aesthetic of the Pokémon as they appeared on screen, bridging the gap between traditional trading card game visuals and cinematic character design.

The design of this specific card captures the powerful, brooding nature of Mewtwo, a central antagonist in the film's narrative. It was distributed through various retail collections and promotional bundles, finding its way into the hands of both casual fans of the movie and dedicated TCG collectors who valued its status as an ultra-rare holographic card representing the unique crossover between the game and the film industry.
