The "Mewtwo LV.60 (No.150)" promotional card from the original Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) series remains highly sought after today—both by collectors and competitive players—due to its rarity as a 1997 limited-edition bonus item and its high practical utility, which allows it to power itself up using cards from the discard pile. Its enduring popularity can be attributed to the following three factors: 1. A 1997 limited-edition promotional card with restricted availability This card was a promotional item—never sold in stores—distributed exclusively as a bonus or supplement in publications such as the June 1997 issue of *Monthly CoroCoro Comic* (released in May 1997) and the official *Pokémon Official Fan Book*. Because it was never included in standard expansion packs, it was rare even at the time of its release; nearly 30 years later, finding a copy in excellent, pristine condition has become exceptionally difficult. 2. High practical utility in *Pokémon Trading Card Game* (Game Boy) and competitive play In the *Pokémon Trading Card Game* for the Game Boy and under the official rules of that era, the combination of moves on this card was remarkably powerful: • "Energy Absorption" (*Energy Kyūshū*): For the cost of a single Psychic Energy, you can attach two Energy cards from your discard pile to this Pokémon. • "Psycho Burn": Although it requires a significant amount of Energy, it can be combined with the aforementioned move to rapidly charge up Energy and immediately deal massive damage. Because it is "self-contained"—capable of both accelerating its own Energy and serving as an effective attacker—it was regarded by players of the time as one of the strongest cards in the game. 3. The immense, inherent popularity of the character "Mewtwo" As Pokédex entry No. 150, Mewtwo is a legendary Pokémon from the original *Pokémon Red* and *Green* games, renowned for its overwhelming power. Furthermore, the profound, cool, and mysterious premise—explored in works such as the film *Mewtwo Strikes Back*—concerning the internal conflict of a clone created by humans, continues to captivate the hearts of many fans. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Note】 ・I think it's in good condition considering its age, but please judge for yourself from the photos.
