Trivia
- Wizards of the Coast ran a competition to illustrate a Pokémon card. The winning entry by Christopher Rush replaced the Japanese artwork, originally done by Ken Sugimori. The explanation behind this was to probably ease confusion that may have arisen due to the similarity of the Japanese artwork of this card to that of the first promo Mewtwo, as both are modified from Sugimori's Generation I stock art.
- As the Japanese version of this card was distributed as part of an expansion sheet, it, along with Pikachu and Mew are often regarded as unofficial additions to the Vending Machine cards collection, dubbed "Series 00".
- The English version of this card was also released in Japan as a promotional card for completing the JR Stamp Rally in August 2000, along with an English version of Eevee.
Origin
Telekinesis is a move later introduced in the Generation V Pokémon games that Mewtwo can learn via TM19. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, though it is slightly reworded.
