Chronologically, Mew is the last Pokémon in Kanto so it should come *after* the other Gen 1 Pokémon in this set (Alolan Marowak, Jynx, Exeggutor etc). But apparently Tag Team GX cards all jumped the order in line!

Yup. In the first Tag Team set–TEU from 2019–Gengar & Mimikyu GX (#53/181) comes before the Nidoran line even though the Nidos precede Gengar in Pokedex order.

Best Arita illustration ever. Looks even better in person!

It’s Arita’s fifth time illustrating Mewtwo!

It’s hardly unprecedented, but I do find it interesting in this particular case that the name of the second attack, ミラクルツインGX [𝐌𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐥𝐞 𝐓𝐰𝐢𝐧 GX] got changed to “Miraculous Duo GX” as (1) the name of the set the JP version of this card is named after the attack (i.e. SM11’s name *is* Miracle Twin), and (2) while “Miracle”➝”Miraculous” is something I can name more than a few examples of in the TCG, the shift from “Twin”➝”Duo” is probably without precedent.
Do they not want people to think of Mew and Mewtwo as twins? Considering the games suggest they no longer want people to think of Mew as being Mewtwo’s ‘mother’, leaving it as “Twin” would’ve been a freebie to further distance people from making such a mental association between the two. https://archive.ph/hNd7H#Journal_entries

Im surprised this card is still worth 20$

It makes sense though, two incredibly popular Gen 1 pokémon on a highly playable card in its standard format, and expanded, and the art is pretty good too. Still would love the price to come down (but I feel that way about all cards, even cards I own)
