The Most Valuable Pokemon TCG Cards to Breakthrough

While some of the best expansions of all time contain a mix of prized Pokemon TCG favorites, BREAKthrough is ready to go all-in on one Pokemon: Mewtwo. ​​​​​​While it cannot be denied that some of the best Mewtwo cards include some iconic artwork from top tier vintage sets, none of the cards featured in BREAKthrough can be counted among the most expensive Mewtwo cards .

However, while it's impossible to ignore Mewtwo's complete dominance among the most expensive cards in BREAKthrough, one card stands out among the sea of ​​sameness. One card stands out as the only survivor of Mewtwo's capture, and that card features a character you probably haven't even heard of until now.

7 M Mewtwo EX 63 (Ultra Rare) – $20.27

You know what to expect

6 Mewtwo EX 158 (Full Art) – $20.88

Get ready for another one

Mewtwo EX 158 offers one of the most unique versions of Mewtwo on this list with a tough design that keeps things simple with a red background that conveys Mewtwo's fiery anger.

If you have planned to invest in this card but have not yet done so, you may also be filled with anger when the price of this card continues to rise, leaving behind previous highs below $20 when he soars to greener pastures. While Mewtwo's intimidating gaze and domineering stance are impressive, there is one more character worth mentioning in BREAKthrough.

5 Bridget (Full Art) – $22.96

Mewtwo's only contest

Bridget interrupts Mewtwo's party with a beautiful full art trainer card that is one of the most valuable cards in BREAKthrough.

4 M Mewtwo EX 160 (Full Art) – $31.58

Mega Mewtwo Y Mayhem

Mega Mewtwo Y appears in BREAKthrough to continue the tour of the various Mewtwo iterations we've received over the years. This Special Attack-focused divergent evolution makes Mewtwo shorter in stature, but has an elongated tail on top of his head as he triumphantly flourishes in this scene.

3 M Mewtwo EX 159 (Full Art) – $37.37

In the stamping range

Mega Mewtwo X claims the title of the most expensive Mewtwo Mega Evolution, but this friendly rivalry is just a small notch in Mewtwo's belt during this parade through each of his forms. This card also relies on the generation's signature design, distinguishing it from the 158 full art.

Unsurprisingly, NM copies of this card continue to rise in value as they become harder to find, compounded by the age of the set. This Mewtwo ended in 2023 around the $30 mark and breached the $36 barrier during 2024, creating a bright future for this card.

Heir to Mewtwo's throne

The last Mewtwo on the list takes home the crown among its peers and is also the most valuable card in BREAKthrough.
