'''Mewtwo''' is a [[bulbapedia:Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] [[bulbapedia:Psychic (type)|Psychic]]-type [[Pokémon]] debuting in the first ''Pokémon'' games, [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Red and Green Versions|''Pokémon Red Version'' and ''Pokémon Green Version'']]. Mewtwo was created artificially based on the genetic code of [[bulbapedia:Mew (Pokémon)|Mew]] to be the ultimate battling Pokémon, though it grew too vicious and powerful to be controlled and escaped. Among all the Pokémon that exist, Mewtwo has the most violent nature. As of [[bulbapedia:Pokémon X and Y|''Pokémon X'' and ''Pokémon Y'']], Mewtwo can [[bulbapedia:Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into either Mega Mewtwo X or Mega Mewtwo Y.
[[Category:Clones]]
 
Mewtwo makes a playable appearance as an unlockable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and as a downloadable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', later appearing in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as an unlockable fighter, like in ''Melee''. Its appearance in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series is primarily based on the [[bulbapedia:Mewtwo (original series)|Mewtwo]] from [[bulbapedia:M01|the first ''Pokémon'' anime movie]], who was initially cruel, condescending, and fierce before reforming its ways, yet also questions its existence and purpose.

[[File:Mewtwo.jpg|thumb|upright=0.8|left|Mewtwo's appearance in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'']]
[[File:Mewtwo SSBM.png|left|frame]]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Mewtwo (SSBM)}}
In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', Mewtwo is an unlockable character. Mewtwo appears after the player has played a total of twenty hours of Melee matches with one player, ten hours with two players, six hours and forty minutes with three players, and five hours with four players; alternatively, the player can play 700 Melee matches. Mewtwo must then be defeated on [[Final Destination]] to be unlocked.
 
Mewtwo's moves are powerful and it can jump high, but it is a lightweight fighter, making it easier to launch, and it does not move as fast as other characters; while it has a high air speed, Mewtwo has a low fall speed and its running and walking speeds are low. Mewtwo also floats above the ground, making it an easy target to send flying and even KO at low damage percentages, and it also has low traction. Mewtwo also possesses a strong grab, and its throw moves pack a strong punch as well. Its standard special is [[#Shadow Ball|Shadow Ball]], which charges and fires a ball of dark energy. Its side special is [[#Confusion|Confusion]], which flips opponents onto the ground and deflects projectiles (however, the reflected projectile does not damage opponents). Mewtwo's down special is [[#Disable|Disable]], which dazes any opponents that it is facing when using the move. Finally, its up special is [[#Teleport|Teleport]], which causes Mewtwo to disappear and reappear in a different location.
 
Mewtwo does not use its hands to hold items, using [[wikipedia:Telekenesis|telekinetic]] powers instead, making the items hover before it. A similar style is seen when Mewtwo hangs on a cliff or grabs another character. The only time it does touch an item is when using the [[Parasol]]. Mewtwo is voiced by Masachika Ichimura in both English and Japanese.

====''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''====
[[File:Mewtwo Trophy Render.png|100px|thumb|left|Mewtwo's trophy appearance in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'']]
Mewtwo is one of the five characters who did not return in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as a playable character (the other four being [[Dr. Mario]], [[Young Link]], [[Pichu]], and [[Roy (Fire Emblem)|Roy]]). [[List of Super Smash Bros. Brawl pre-release and unused content#Unused data|Data]] exists on the disc for Mewtwo as a playable character, however, meaning that at one point in development it may have been a character in the game. It does, however, have the appearance of a trophy, which can be obtained by completing All-Star Mode on Intense difficulty.

====''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''====
[[File:SSB4 - Mewtwo Artwork.png|thumb|left|Mewtwo's artwork for ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'']]
[[File:Mewtwo-SSBWiiU.jpg|thumb|Mewtwo as it appears in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Mewtwo (SSB4)}}
Originally, Mewtwo only appeared as a collectible trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. Additionally, a Mega Mewtwo X & Y trophy appeared exclusively for ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''.
 
During the ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' 50-Fact Extravaganza, however, Mewtwo was confirmed to appear as a downloadable fighter for ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0BBGzfw0pQ&list=UUGIY_O-8vW4rfX98KlMkvRg Wii U - Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 50-Fact Extravaganza]. Posted to YouTube by Nintendo (October 23, 2014). Retrieved October 23, 2014.</ref> It is one of three cut characters from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' to return, alongside [[Dr. Mario]] and [[Roy (Fire Emblem)|Roy]] (the latter also appearing as a downloadable fighter). Mewtwo was released publicly as paid content at the [[Nintendo eShop]] on April 28, 2015, but players who had registered ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' onto their [[Club Nintendo (rewards program)|Club Nintendo]] account before the end of March 31, 2015 received free download codes for Mewtwo on April 15, 2015. Mewtwo's design as a playable character in this game is closer to its current appearance, and it is now voiced by [[wikipedia:Keiji Fujiwara|Keiji Fujiwara]].
 
While Mewtwo's moveset is identical to that of its ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' incarnation, it has been given a [[Final Smash]]: [[#Psystrike|Psystrike]], in which it Mega Evolves into Mega Mewtwo Y and delivers a mental attack. Some of its other moves have also been altered to increase their effectiveness. Mewtwo is also much lighter (only being heavier than [[Jigglypuff]]), and moves faster than in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', while keeping its attack power. Additionally, Mewtwo still offers one of the highest air speed attributes in the game, losing only to [[Yoshi]] and Jigglypuff, but its high air speed is offset by very low air acceleration, and its falling speed is above average as well.
 
When Mewtwo is downloaded, it can appear in all the solo game modes, except for Events. In All-Star mode, Mewtwo appears between [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Pikachu]]. However, Mewtwo's inclusion has no effect on any of the challenges.
 
====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Mewtwo (SSBU)}}
Mewtwo reappears as an unlockable playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Mewtwo's mobility is improved, while its double jump is made faster. Mewtwo's aerial attacks have less landing lag, while its short hop timing is reduced; Mewtwo's smash attacks knock opponents back farther, while some moves deal more damage.
 
Several of Mewtwo's attacks receive names: its down tilt is Tail Sweep, its forward smash is Shadow Blast, its up smash is Galaxy Force, its down smash is Shadow Bomb, its standard aerial is Body Spark, its forward aerial is Shadow Scratch, its forward throw is Shadow Cannon, and its up throw is Psychic Whirlwind.
 
Mewtwo also makes an appearance in the World of Light's opening cutscene, where Mewtwo attempts to deflect [[Galeem]]'s large laser attack by using Confusion along with [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]], but fails, with both of them getting eliminated by the lasers and turned into dark clones.

====Special moves====
=====Shadow Ball=====
[[File:SSBU Shadow Ball.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Shadow Ball in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Shadow Ball}}
'''[[bulbapedia:Shadow Ball (move)|Shadow Ball]]''' is a [[bulbapedia:Ghost (type)|Ghost-type]] move in the ''Pokémon'' series, and Mewtwo's standard special move. When used, Mewtwo stands in place and charges up a ball of dark energy; the charging deals electric damage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. Unlike other auto-charging moves, Mewtwo continues to charge even when the move is fully charged; it can only be stopped by firing, shielding, or tilting the control stick to automatically roll. Charging the move allows it to travel farther and deal greater damage and knockback. When fired, the ball travels forward in a waving motion. The move also has a recoil effect when fired which is greater when fired in the air, pushing Mewtwo back depending on how much the move was charged before firing.
 
Mewtwo's forward throw also involves it firing Shadow Balls in rapid succession at opponents.

=====Confusion=====
[[File:SSBWiiU Confusion.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|Confusion in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Confusion}}
'''[[bulbapedia:Confusion (move)|Confusion]]''' is a [[bulbapedia:Psychic (type)|Psychic-type]] move from the ''Pokémon'' series used as Mewtwo's side special move. When used, Mewtwo swipes its hand, causing a dark aura to appear around it, tossing opponents to the ground and damaging them if they are close enough. Confusion can also deflect projectiles, though in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', deflected projectiles cannot damage the original user, but in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', all projectiles deal damage when reflected. When used in the air, Mewtwo does a slight hop. The move can also bypass opponents' shields.

=====Teleport=====
[[File:SSBWiiU Teleport.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Mewtwo about to use Teleport in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Teleport}}
'''[[bulbapedia:Teleport (move)|Teleport]]''' is a recurring Psychic-type move appearing in every installment of the main ''Pokémon'' series, and appears as Mewtwo's up special move. Mewtwo disappears in a flash of light, and reappears depending on the direction the player holds on the control stick, similar to [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]]'s [[Princess Zelda#Farore's Wind|Farore's Wind]]. Like any other up special attacks, Mewtwo is left in a helpless state if it is in the air after using Teleport.

=====Disable=====
[[File:SSBU Disable.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|Disable in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Disable}}
'''[[bulbapedia:Disable|Disable]]''' is Mewtwo's down special move, based upon the recurring [[bulbapedia:Normal (type)|Normal-type]] move from the ''Pokémon'' series. Mewtwo fires a beam from its eyes in the direction that it is facing, temporarily dazing any nearby opponents caught by it and damaging them; the opponent must be facing Mewtwo and at around its eye level for the move to work, however. The move also dazes opponents for longer if they have a higher damage percentage. In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' using Disable on an already dazed opponent causes them to fly off, though in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' this only deals more damage. If the move is used on an opponent in the air, then they will only briefly flinch.
 
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', Mewtwo's stance when using Disable is different than in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', with its lower head position allowing the move to hit smaller opponents more easily.

====Final Smash====
=====Psystrike=====
[[File:SSBWiiU Psystrike.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Psystrike in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
'''[[bulbapedia:Psystrike (move)|Psystrike]]''' is Mewtwo's [[Final Smash]]. In the ''Pokémon'' series, it is a Psychic-type move learned by Mewtwo at level 100, and is Mewtwo's [[bulbapedia:Signature move|signature move]] as of [[bulbapedia:Generation V|Generation V]]. When activated, Mewtwo [[bulbapedia:Mega Evolution|Mega Evolves]] into Mega Mewtwo Y, then fires a large ball of psychic energy across the screen in the direction Mewtwo is facing, stunning any opponents in its path. The stunned opponents then take heavy damage and are launched away as Mewtwo returns to normal. Opponents can be stunned even if they are in the air.

===''Super Mario Maker''===
[[File:SMM Mewtwo.png|left|frame]]
Mewtwo is one of the [[Costume Mario]] costumes that can be unlocked in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', either with a Mewtwo [[amiibo]] or as a random unlock by completing the 100 Mario Challenge. Mewtwo's sprite is based on its overworld sprite from the [[Nintendo DS]] ''Pokémon'' games, though like the other Pokémon costumes in the game (excluding the Event Course costumes), Mewtwo does not have any unique sound effects, instead using the default ''Super Mario Bros.'' sounds.

|''A genetically created Pokémon, Mewtwo is the result of many long years of research by a solitary scientist. Although Mewtwo was cloned from the genes of the legendary Pokémon Mew, its size and character are far different than its ancestor. Its battle abilities have been radically heightened, making it ruthless.

|''As Mewtwo relies mostly on its powerful brain, there are times when it scarcely uses its arms and legs. Since Mewtwo spends much of its time floating, it flies far when struck. Shadow Ball traces a jagged path once released: the longer Mewtwo holds it, the more powerful it becomes. Mewtwo uses Confusion to spin its foes around.

|[[File:Trophy54.png|100px]]

|''Mewtwo is definitely not a speedy character, but its ESP-powered grab and throw moves are comparatively strong. Teleport has a short range, but doesn't leave it open to attack. It's best used as an escape move during disturbances. Mewtwo can daze a foe if it makes eye contact and uses Disable; the move is useless unless Mewtwo is facing its enemy.

|''Mega Mewtwo comes in two forms rather than just one. Mega Mewtwo X has visibly strengthened limbs, which greatly boost its physical abilities in battle. Mega Mewtwo Y, on the other hand, has a whip-like tendril extending from the back of its head, which augments its psychic powers.''

===Palutena's Guidance===
====''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''====
The following dialogue also applies to [[Lucas]], [[Roy (Fire Emblem)|Roy]], [[Ryu]], [[Cloud Strife|Cloud]], [[Corrin]], and [[Bayonetta]]; all DLC characters, like Mewtwo.
 
*'''Pit''': Who is THAT?
*'''Palutena''': I have no data on this fighter. I can't believe it!
*'''Viridi''': It must be an intruder from another dimension!
*'''Pit''': Whoever it is, the goal remains the same: to fight and win!
 
====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
*'''Pit''': That's Mewtwo, right?
*'''Palutena''': National Pokédex number 150. Mewtwo is a legendary Pokémon that was created by resequencing Mew's genes.
*'''Viridi''': I WILL NEVER FORGIVE THESE HUMANS!
*'''Pit''': Poor thing. It's a walking science experiment.
*'''Palutena''': Mewtwo is arguably the most powerful Pokémon in existence. Some people spend their entire lives trying to catch it.
*'''Viridi''': It's an affront to nature and must be destroyed immediately! Think about it! Every action has a butterfly effect. Who knows what kind of impact it could have on the ecosystem!
*'''Pit''': Grow a heart, Viridi! It didn't choose to be a freak of nature.
*'''Palutena''': Feel sorry for it all you want, Pit, but don't underestimate it. Mewtwo's Confusion move can both flip opponents and reflect projectiles.

==Trivia==
*Mewtwo was planned to be a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', but time constraints posed as an issue, so it was left out.<ref>http://games.yahoo.co.jp/qa/detail?qid=1090755405</ref>
*Mewtwo never speaks: when the language is set to English in the NTSC version of ''Melee'', at all in the PAL version of ''Melee'', in Western versions of ''3DS''/''Wii U'', and when the game is set to any language other than Japanese or Chinese in ''Ultimate''; it makes only grunts, laughs, and other noises. However, it does speak telepathically on the results screen when the language is set to Japanese (as well as Chinese in ''Ultimate'').
*When in metal form in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', Mewtwo does not make clanking noises, even when it lands; in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', while it still does not clank while moving, it does when it lands.
*The tagline for Mewtwo's ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' trailer, "Mewtwo Strikes Back!", is a reference to the name of the [[bulbapedia:M01|first ''Pokémon'' movie]].
*Mewtwo's depiction as a lightweight fighter in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series is likely due to its floaty attributes and its tendency to float while moving, which are both mentioned in its trophy descriptions. Its lightweight status may also be a reference to the ''Pokémon'' games, where its defenses are on the low side when compared to most other Pokémon who share its base stat total.
*Mewtwo is thus far the only Legendary Pokémon to be playable in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series.
