What is the cracked ice holo pattern?

A holofoil sheet pattern that looks like shattered ice — angular shards radiating across the holo window instead of the smooth cosmos or linear patterns used on other Pokémon holos. It is a community name, not an official designation, so always confirm the set and card number rather than trusting a listing title.

Which Mewtwo cracked ice card is most valuable?

In high grade, the 2016 XY Evolutions holo #51 leads on demand because it is a Base Set homage carrying two nostalgia waves at once. Vintage EX-era Mewtwo printings can exceed it when they surface in high grade, simply because almost none do.

Is a cracked ice Mewtwo worth grading?

Only if it pre-screens clean: centering inside roughly 60/40 on the front, no scratching visible when the foil is tilted under a direct lamp, sharp corners, and no edge whitening on the reverse. Anything less usually caps at a PSA 8 and the fee outruns the gain.

About Mewtwo Cracked Ice Cards

Cracked ice is a holofoil sheet pattern, not a rarity tier: angular shards fan out across the holo window and travel as the card is tilted. On Mewtwo it appears most prominently on the 2016 XY Evolutions holo #51 and the 2019 Sun & Moon Unbroken Bonds holo #75, with earlier EX-era printings showing a similar faceted behaviour.

The pattern is unforgiving. Because the foil throws light back in hard facets rather than absorbing it, every hairline scratch and sleeve press-line shows under a grader's lamp. That is why gem-mint populations stay small on cards that were printed in enormous quantities — and why the price gap between a PSA 9 and a PSA 10 is a multiple rather than a percentage.

Every graded card here is sold in its original untampered holder so you can verify grade and population against the grader's public lookup before you buy. If you already own a cracked ice Mewtwo and want it slabbed, our weekly PSA group submission takes it in our bulk allocation — pre-screen it first.
