Mewtwo (#150) has 88 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 42 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Mewtwo 10/102 in Base (1999). That card is named Mewtwo, while this one is Mewtwo-GX. That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 190 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare Holo GX. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 83 other cards of Mewtwo list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads 5ban Graphics. I count 1,629 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Shining Legends set binder is where a full Shining Legends set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Mewtwo can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mew and Mewtwo. I still need this card.
