Shining Mewtwo leads TCGplayer's Mewtwo prices at $3,000.00, ahead of the Winner version of a Rocket's Mewtwo promo at $2,400.00, while four cards from four different eras sit between $395 and $440.
The most valuable Mewtwo card is Shining Mewtwo from 2002's Neo Destiny set, priced at $3,000.00 on TCGplayer as of September 27, 2026. Second is the Winner version of the Rocket's Mewtwo promo at $2,400.00, and third is Rocket's Mewtwo ex from EX Team Rocket Returns at $1,150.00.
Those three prices rest on very few active listings, between 5 and 9 each. Further down, four cards from four different eras sit in a tight band between $395.38 and $439.98, and the original 1999 Base Set Mewtwo runs from $91.87 to $358.01 depending on print alone.
This guide ranks the ten highest TCGplayer market prices among the more than 170 English Mewtwo card products in TCGplayer's own search data, all read on the same day. It also names what is missing: no PSA or CGC population data and no auction-house sale records made it into this cycle's source pack, so neither appears below.
All prices below are TCGplayer's published raw market prices for English cards, read September 27, 2026. The listings column is the number of active TCGplayer listings on that date.

Six of the ten were released between 2002 and 2005. Only three come from the last decade, and the newest, Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex, has by far the deepest market at 115 active listings.
The top three: thin markets at the top
Shining Mewtwo carries a TCGplayer market price of $3,000.00, 25% above the $2,400.00 Winner version of the Rocket's Mewtwo promo. Rocket's Mewtwo ex from EX Team Rocket Returns follows at $1,150.00, less than half the price of either.
Shining Mewtwo carries the set's secret 109/105 number, printed above the set's own 105-card total. TCGplayer lists the Rocket's Mewtwo promo as card 008/009 in its Best of Promos set, with "[Winner]" in the product name.
All three markets are thin. On the read date, TCGplayer showed:
Shining Mewtwo: 9 active listings, lowest listing $599.99.
Rocket's Mewtwo 8 [Winner]: 8 active listings, lowest listing $599.99.
Rocket's Mewtwo ex: 5 active listings, lowest listing $399.93.
Each market price sits well above the cheapest active listing. The TCGplayer product data read for this guide does not show which condition those cheapest copies are in, so this guide reports both numbers and does not treat either as a correction of the other.
Rocket's Mewtwo ex 99/109, EX Team Rocket Returns. TCGplayer market price $1,150.00 as of September 27, 2026, third on this list.
No auction-house or PSA population data was available for these cards this cycle, so this guide cannot say how many graded copies exist or whether recent auction sales support the TCGplayer reads. The figures describe TCGplayer's own raw market, not a graded record.
The middle of the list: $550 to $820
Three cards fill the gap between Rocket's Mewtwo ex and the $400 band. Mewtwo GX 78/73 from 2017's Shining Legends leads them at $819.25, with 50 active listings, a much deeper market than anything above it.
Mewtwo (Delta Species) 12/113 from 2005's EX Delta Species follows at $746.84 on 25 listings. The Pokemon Rumble promo Mewtwo is sixth at $550.00, on just 4 listings.
Mewtwo GX 78/73 is the only card released after 2010 that places above the $400 band. Its 78/73 number is printed above Shining Legends' 73-card total.
The $400 band: four cards, four eras
Four Mewtwo cards released 23 years apart cluster inside a $44.60 range. Expedition's Mewtwo 20/165 from 2002, Mewtwo ex from 2003's EX Ruby & Sapphire, the Unified Minds Secret Rare Mewtwo & Mew GX from 2019, and Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex Special Illustration Rare from 2025's Destined Rivals all carried TCGplayer market prices between $395.38 and $439.98 on the same September 27, 2026 read.
Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex 231/182, Special Illustration Rare, Destined Rivals. TCGplayer market price $395.38 as of September 27, 2026, the most valuable Mewtwo card released in 2025.
Card age does not sort this band. The top of the four, Mewtwo ex, is from 2003, but the oldest, Expedition's Mewtwo, sits third. The newest, Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex, is the least expensive of the four despite carrying a Special Illustration Rare treatment.
The card numbering does not sort it either. Mewtwo & Mew GX's 242/236 and Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex's 231/182 both carry secret numbers, printed above their sets' official card counts of 236 and 182.
Mewtwo ex's 101/109 and Expedition Mewtwo's 20/165 sit inside their sets' numbered runs instead. Yet Mewtwo ex, with no secret number, is the most expensive of the four, and TCGplayer's own data does not explain why.
For how print rarity and character demand interact more broadly across a set, Cardboard Alpha's 151 pricing breakdown works through the same dynamic on a full 207-card set rather than one character across sets.
Base Set Mewtwo: print over age
The 1999 Base Set Mewtwo shows how much the print alone can move a price on the identical card. TCGplayer prices the Shadowless print without the "1st Edition" stamp at $358.01. The Unlimited print of the same card carries a market price of $91.87, per the same September 27, 2026 read.

That is a 3.9x premium for the Shadowless print on a card with the same artwork, the same rarity, and the same 10/102 number. The Shadowless price sits just below the $400 band and outside this guide's top ten.
Base Set Mewtwo 10/102. Shadowless print $358.01, Unlimited print $91.87, both TCGplayer market prices as of September 27, 2026.
Other print runs exist. Cardboard Alpha's catalog carries a 1st Edition Shadowless variant of this same card, but no TCGplayer product page for it could be verified within this session's research budget. This guide states that the variant exists and gives it no price rather than estimate one from the Shadowless or Unlimited figures above.
Naming that gap matters more here than on a generic card, since the Shadowless-versus-Unlimited spread already shows how far a single print distinction can move a price on this exact card. This guide does not put a number on any 1st Edition premium.
A few gaps are worth naming rather than smoothing over.
No PSA or CGC population data. Grading-company pop reports could not be reached this research cycle, so this guide cannot say how a Mewtwo card's graded population compares with any other, or where its gem rate sits.
No auction-house realized prices. Heritage and PWCC sale records for any Mewtwo card were not available this cycle. Every price above is a TCGplayer raw-market read, not a graded sale.
No Japanese or other non-English cards. The ranking covers TCGplayer's English Pokemon card catalog only.
No 1st Edition Base Set Mewtwo price. The variant exists in Cardboard Alpha's catalog; no verified TCGplayer price for it was found.
The newest Mewtwo cards are too new to judge. The 30th Celebration set, released September 16, 2026, added a Mewtwo ex Special Illustration Rare 151/128 that carried a TCGplayer market price of $82.57 on the read date, far below the top ten. At eleven days old, that price reflects a very early market.
Prices also move. Every figure above is a single dated read from September 27, 2026, not a trend line, and the thinnest markets at the top of the list can move the most on a single sale. Cardboard Alpha's screener tracks the same cards' live prices going forward for anyone who wants to watch these numbers change.

Why is Shining Mewtwo worth so much more than most other Mewtwo cards?

Mewtwo GX 78/73 from 2017's Shining Legends, at a TCGplayer market price of $819.25 on September 27, 2026. It is the highest-priced Mewtwo card released after 2010 in this guide's read, and fourth overall.

Shadowless carries a TCGplayer market price of $358.01 against $91.87 for the Unlimited print, a 3.9x premium for the Shadowless print on the same card, as of September 27, 2026. Both prints share the same artwork, rarity and 10/102 number.
Is 1st Edition Base Set Mewtwo worth more than the Shadowless print?
Cardboard Alpha's catalog confirms a 1st Edition Shadowless variant of Base Set Mewtwo exists, but no verified TCGplayer price for it was found this cycle. This guide states its existence without estimating a price.
Does this guide include PSA or CGC graded card prices?
No. Every price in this guide is TCGplayer's raw, ungraded market price, read September 27, 2026. Grading-company population reports and auction-house realized prices were not available this research cycle.

Jackie Chung covers the Pokémon TCG secondary market for Cardboard Alpha, with a focus on grading economics and set value guides. She spends most of her research time in population reports and grade-spread data, tracing how submission volume, print runs, and grading-company standards shape the premium between a raw card and its graded counterparts across different eras. Her set guides are built the same way: grounded in published pricing and pop data first, with market narrative kept separate from the numbers behind it.
