MEW V - FUSION STRIKE (ULTRA RARE) [113/264]: IDENTIFICATION

This Ultra Rare Pokemon card features Mew V from the Fusion Strike expansion, illustrated by the legendary Mitsuhiro Arita. The card displays Mew mid-flight against a dynamic, geometric background featuring the Fusion Strike logo. As a Basic Pokémon V, it possesses 180 HP and two primary moves: 'Energy Mix', which allows for deck acceleration of Fusion Strike Energy, and 'Psychic Leap', a strategic 70-damage attack that permits the player to shuffle Mew and all attached cards back into the deck.

This specific Mew V (113/264) served as the cornerstone for the 'Mew VMAX' deck archetype, which dominated the competitive meta-game throughout 2022 and 2023, including a victory at the 2023 World Championships in Yokohama.

KEY EVIDENCE

  • 1Correct set identifier (G) and set symbol located bottom left.
  • 2Artist credit to Mitsuhiro Arita verifies the specific 113/264 variant.
  • 3Holo sheen visible in angled shots (Image 2) is consistent with standard Ultra Rare foil finish.
  • 4Alignment of 'V rule' text box and HP fonts matches authentic 2021 print runs.

WHAT WOULD IMPROVE CERTAINTY

  • →Inspect the back of the card for whitening on corners.
  • →Place in a penny sleeve and top-loader to maintain the user-stated mint condition.

CONDITION & GRADE

PSA 8-9

Grading breakdown

User specifies Mint condition; however, visual inspection of image 1 suggests a heavy bottom border (approx 65/35 centering ratio), likely capping the grade at a 9 despite the clean surface.

Condition

The card edges appear clean and the surface shows no immediate signs of scratching or holofoil chipping. Centering appears slightly shifted toward the bottom-right on the front face.

YOUR INPUT VS. SCAN

How your provided context compares with Curiosa.com scanner findings.

What Aligned

  • User stated 'Mint' - visual analysis shows very clean edges and corners with no surface wear visible.

What Conflicted

  • Centering is slightly off-axis (heavy bottom), which technically deviates from 'Gem Mint 10' standards despite being in unused/mint state.
