2005 Mew (ミュウ) TAG Grade: 9 MINT / TAG Score: 927/1000 POP 1 All Across!
Mew (ミュウ) from the 2005 POKÉMON PCG PROMOS Japanese set (#091/PCG-P), distributed as a promotional card through Shogakukan Elementary School Magazine. This card features Mew, the elusive Mythical Psychic-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I as the 'New Species Pokémon,' famous for containing the genetic material of all Pokémon and its role in early lore from Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow games, where it could only be obtained via special events. Promos like this one tie into the broader PCG (Play! Pokémon Card Game) era promotions in Japan, often given out through magazines, events, or educational tie-ins, with no direct English equivalent. As a vintage Japanese promo exclusive, it appeals to collectors for its connection to Mew's legendary status, the mythical allure from the original 151 Pokémon, and the limited distribution channels of mid-2000s Japanese exclusives that emphasize rare, event-based Mythical Pokémon cards.
