==Trivia==
==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 {{TCG ID|Wizards Promo|Mewtwo|3}}, as both are modified from Sugimori's [[Generation I]] stock art.

Trivia

  • The artwork change between the English and Japanese prints 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 originally 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".

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.
