Collector Insights
Mewtwo is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 60 HP, featuring a retreat cost of three Colorless Energy. It includes two attacks: "Psychic," which deals 10+ damage plus 10 more for each Energy card attached to the Defending Pokémon, and "Barrier," requiring the discard of a Psychic Energy card to prevent all attack effects during the opponent's next turn. The card’s design is attributed to artist Ken Sugimori, and its flavor text describes it as originating from gene-splicing experiments. It belongs to the Base series, released as part of the Base Set 2 on February 24, 2000. The card’s color scheme aligns with the theme color #ab857d, and it is classified as a Rare Holo. Mewtwo has no resistances but is weak to Psychic-type attacks, dealing double damage. Its unique abilities and strategic versatility make it a notable card in the Pokémon TCG.
A scientist created this Pokémon after years of horrific gene-splicing and DNA engineering experiments.
