Mewtwo Pokémon Cards: Every Card and Its Value (2026)

Every Mewtwo Card, Ranked by Price

The table includes every English card with Mewtwo in its name: Shining Mewtwo, the Gold Star Mewtwo, Rocket's Mewtwo and Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex, Mega Mewtwo EX, Mewtwo & Mew GX, promos and reprints. Each card appears once, at its most valuable printing. For example, the Shining Mewtwo row shows the 1st Edition price, which is higher than the Unlimited one.

A few rows need context:

• Mewtwo Star is TCGplayer's name for the Gold Star Mewtwo. The card itself shows a gold star after the name.
• Base Set (Shadowless) is the Shadowless print. The plain Base Set row is the later Unlimited print. 1st Edition copies have no market price because they almost never sell ungraded on TCGplayer.
• Best of Promos is the 2002 Best of Game promo set. The Rocket's Mewtwo with a "Winner" stamp was a tournament prize and sells for far more than the unstamped card.
• Prize Pack Series Cards are reprints with a Play! Pokémon stamp. The stamped Mewtwo VSTAR sells for about $126, while the normal Pokémon GO card sells for under $10.
• Rarely traded cards can move a lot between updates, because a single sale can set the market price.

The Most Expensive Mewtwo Cards Ever Sold

Every record sale is a graded card, and all of the ones below are PSA 10s, the top grade.

The Gold Star Mewtwo is the most valuable Mewtwo in most grades. Sports Illustrated reported the $85,000 sale on 23 April 2026 and, citing Card Ladder, said the Mewtwo market had risen about 230% over the previous year. Price trackers have listed higher sales since, but we couldn't find them in a published report, so we've left them out.

The Legendary Collection reverse holo sale, also reported by Sports Illustrated, went through eBay in the week of 5 to 11 July 2026. The reverse holos from Legendary Collection have a "fireworks" foil pattern across the whole card, and clean copies are hard to find.

The two $45,600 sales came in the same Fanatics Collect weekly auction, reported by ComicBook.com in August 2026. The Mewtwo GX from Shining Legends is the only modern card on the list. According to Wargamer, a PSA 10 sold for more than $10,000 on 14 May 2026.

Which Mewtwo Do You Have?

Start with the bottom of the card. The card number and set symbol tell you the set. The original Base Set has no set symbol, and its Mewtwo is 10/102.

For a Base Set Mewtwo, three things set the prints apart:

The reprints are easier to spot. Base Set 2 is 10/130, Legendary Collection is 29/110 and the XY Evolutions version is 51/108. The Trading Card Game Classic reprint is 014/034.

For a Gold Star Mewtwo, look for the small gold star after the name and the number 103/110. Fakes of Gold Star cards are common, so compare the card with photos of a graded copy.

For a modern Mewtwo, check two things:

• The number. If it's higher than the set total, as in 231/182, it's a secret rare. The valuable cards are almost always these.
• The rarity symbol. In Scarlet & Violet and Mega Evolution sets, three gold stars mark a Hyper Rare, two gold stars a Special Illustration Rare and one gold star an Illustration Rare. Black or silver stars mark the Double Rares and Ultra Rares, which are worth less.

Is Your Mewtwo Worth Money?

Probably less than you'd hope, unless it's one of the cards above. In the October 2026 data:

• 46 of the 115 English Mewtwo cards sell for under $20
• 68 sell for under $50
• 35 sell for $100 or more
• 8 sell for $500 or more

The regular-rarity Mewtwo ex, V and VSTAR cards from recent sets mostly sell for about $1 to $10. The money is in vintage holos, the Gold Star and Shining cards, secret rares and Special Illustration Rares.

Condition matters as much as the card. Prices in the table are what ungraded copies have recently sold for on TCGplayer. Scratched, bent or worn copies sell for less, and a PSA 10 can be worth ten times the ungraded price or more, as the Majestic Dawn Mewtwo shows.

Watch for fakes. For any card worth more than a few hundred dollars, buy a graded copy or buy from a seller with a clear return policy.

Mewtwo in New Sets

If you'd rather open packs, these recent sets have a chase Mewtwo. Our set pages compare what each product costs per pack and list each set's most valuable cards:

• Destined Rivals: Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex, the set's most valuable card
• Ascended Heroes: Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex Special Illustration Rare

Every modern set has dozens of secret rares, so opening packs until you pull one particular Mewtwo usually costs more than buying that card outright. If you do want to open packs, our Pokémon booster box guide compares what every set's box costs per pack.
