# Mewtwo #12/18 — Detective Pikachu

## Summary

Mewtwo has been a fan favorite since Gen I, and this Detective Pikachu pull ties it to the film's CGI-era Pokémon, credited to MPC Film rather than a card illustrator. As an Ultra Rare in a small movie tie-in set, it was the chase slot, so demand follows nostalgia and scarcity. At an $11 modelled guide, up 13% over 30 days on 105 copies traded, with 109 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.53 out of Stellar Crown; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $800 and a 24% observed gem rate putting about $78 of expected profit per submission.
