Released in July 2022, this card was specifically produced as a promotional tie-in for the Pokémon GO Elite Trainer Box and other premium collection products. Unlike standard set cards, Black Star Promos are distributed through specific merchandise rather than randomized booster packs. Mewtwo was chosen as the flagship representative for this collaboration due to its historical role as the first Tier 5 Legendary Raid Boss in the mobile game, which launched globally in 2016.

## GRADING EXPERT'S TAKE

Trading Card Market Analyst

Card Specialist

The card is a modern, high-volume promo with very clear identification markers (SWSH223) and typical era-appropriate physical characteristics.

### KEY EVIDENCE

-   1 Physical bowing (curving) is indicative of the specific foil-to-paper ratio used in 2022 North American print runs. 

## CONDITION & GRADE

PSA 8-9 

### Grading breakdown

While the user notes 'Mint', the visible curve (warping) and slightly off-center left-to-right borders on the front suggest a grade below Gem Mint. Surface scratches are not visible at this resolution but common in this finish.

### Condition

The card exhibits visible 'curving' or 'warping', a common atmospheric reaction in holofoil cards where the metallic layer contracts differently than the paper cardstock. Edges and corners appear relatively sharp in the provided images.

## TRADING CARD MARKET VALUE

$1 - $3

Updated: Aug 8, 2026

## YOUR INPUT VS. SCAN

### What Aligned

-   User note 'has a little curve' matches the visible horizontal bowing of the cardstock in the images. 
-   User assessment of 'Mint' aligns with the lack of visible whitening or corner dings in the photographs.
