Mewtwo

Mewtwo is the most powerful Pokèmon in the game and series.

Mewtwo is described by the in-game Pokédexes of the Pokémon video games as being cloned from giuseppe having been created by scientists by super modifying Mew's DNA. It is primarily due to this characteristic that Mewtwo is featured in the various Pokémon media as tempestuous and remorseless. A sapient being, Mewtwo is among the few Pokémon species created by humankind. Mewtwo's ears resemble small horns and its body is less feline and more humanoid than that of Mew.

Due to its genetic background, Mewtwo’s powers are superior to all other Pokémon, even many of legendary or god-like regard. Mewtwo can employ telekinesis to lift people and Pokémon off the ground, or to perform self-levitation, which allows it to achieve genuine flight. All this can be done with only a minor or nearly no strain on its mind. Mewtwo has the ability to project its thoughts telepathically to others, making it one of the very few Pokémon who can directly communicate with any sort of creature. When in battle with another Pokémon, Mewtwo can easily summon a barrier of telekinetic power to protect its body, as well as erase memories.

In Pokémon Red, Blue and Yellow from the first generation of games for original Game Boy, Mewtwo is found in the Unknown Dungeon, residing at its end as a Pokémon that one has a single chance to catch through battle, where it is at level 70. In Red, Blue, and Yellow, Mewtwo, was an overly powerful species with very high statistics. However, with the introduction of Dark and Steel types and strong Ghost and Bug attacks in Generation Two, Mewtwo was weakened. Even so, it remains one of the strongest Pokémon in the games.

Mewtwo in the Cerulean Cave in FireRed/LeafGreenMewtwo can be captured in the Fire Red and LeafGreen versions as well. It lives in the Cerulean Cave at level 70. Once caught, Mewtwo can be traded to the other versions. Mewtwo has the highest Special Attack rating and a high Speed and Attack. However its Defense and Special Defense are slightly above average.

In Pokémon Stadium, Mewtwo is the boss-character of every Round of the stadium; after completing the Gym Leader Castle, the four levels of the Poke Cup, Prime Cup, Pika Cup and Petit Cup, a Level 100 Mewtwo awaits battle, and the player must be able to defeat it with a team of any six or less Pokémon to complete that round. Pokémon Stadium 2 has these battles much like the previous game, but this time the battle is with the Rival who has three Pokémon at level 50: Lugia and Ho-Oh in addition to Mewtwo.

In the Nintendo 64 game Pokémon Snap, while Mewtwo is not physically present, an array of glowing crystals is located in the Cave course. If the center crystal is properly snapped, the photograph displays a large, holographic image of Mewtwo, one of the six "signs" required to get to Rainbow Cloud, the final course in the game. Mewtwo also appears in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon as a boss character at the end of the game and is later recruitable in the brutal 99 floor dungeon Western Cave Dungeon. Mewtwo also plays a cameo in Pokémon Puzzle League.

Mewtwo as seen in Super Smash Bros. MeleeMewtwo made its first Smash Bros. appearance in Super Smash Bros. Melee. It is one of four playable Pokémon characters. It has a fast running speed, has a light weight and is easy to knock out of the arena. It uses quick, strong attack moves and can lift and throw items (and other players) easily.

In Pokémon: The First Movie, Mewtwo stirs from its slumber in stasis a while after its memory is erased and it has matured. When it is told that it is a laboratory specimen for the humans who created it, Mewtwo is enraged and destroys the laboratory. It is soon found by Giovanni, who had originally ordered Mewtwo's creation, and succeeds in tricking the Pokémon by telling it that he will help "add value" to Mewtwo's life and make him stronger. Giovanni trains Mewtwo through use of a sort of armor plating in his gym in Viridian City. Upon finding out that Giovanni is using it as nothing more than a tool, it is convinced that humans are immoral. Mewtwo destroys the machinery connected to it and flies away, escaping Giovanni's clutches. It goes to New Island and sets a new goal: a global purge of humans and Pokémon, both of which it believes to be corrupt and weak; the humans in doing whatever they want and their pokémon mindlessly obeying them. Mewtwo's plans are to clone every species of Pokémon to create superior creatures- super clones like itself and wipe the planet clean of all humans and "inferior" Pokémon.

Mewtwo sets in motion its plan to acquire Pokémon for cloning. In order to do this, it sends letters to many trainers including Ash, inviting them to the island to meet "the world's greatest" Pokémon Master. Creating a storm so getting to the island would be more difficult, Mewtwo tests to see who are the worthiest trainers and upon their arrival, it appears before them proclaiming itself to be the world's greatest Pokémon and Pokémon Master. Mewtwo detains the trainers' Pokémon using Thief Balls, a variation of the Pokéball that captures all tamed Pokémon, even those inside their Pokéballs. Mewtwo clones each of them for itself in the lab it created. However, a wild Mew that witnessed the scientists with the fossil appears, and Mewtwo immediately sets the stage for a tremendous battle with it. With that, the ultimate Pokémon battle ensues, and the chaos eventually ends when Ash throws himself into Mewtwo and Mew’s crossfire of Psychic attacks, rendering his body lifeless and stone-like. This shocks Mewtwo, and as all the Pokémon grieve, their tears caress Ash’s body and miraculously revive him. Mewtwo realizes that all living beings have virtue. Then, it erases the memories of all trainers and their Pokémon and teleports them to the places where they received their invitations before taking the Pokémon it cloned along with it on a journey westward, in search of a haven.

I'll see if I can find the comic scans and novels that showing him whooping ass.

Yep. Dead wrong...

Anyhow, I guess I should say thanks for making a thread for my favorite Ninty character (well, besides Ridley, but I regard them equally) and my favorite pogeymanz! Err, Pokemon. >.>

*doesn't really know what about Mewtwo I should contribute to at the moment*

Meh. If he returns in Brawl, I guess all I can say is I hope they make his speed and weight more on par with that of the Pokemon games. Because the opposite was true for Melee, he was practically the easiest character to KO, and was bottom tier as well.

Arceus is. He is basically the Pokemon God. Also, Ho oh and Lugia are Mewtwo's equals.

Lugia & Ho-oh combined wouldn't be able to beat mewtwo ^^'

Ahhh i see where you've gone wrong Arceus is by far the strongest in the games (because he can change is element, then use Judgement) . I don't remember hearing they replaced the strongest pokèmon, I'm checking but i got nothing, If you can find me the official source that says Arceus is the strongest that be much appreciated.

It's currently believed he was the First Pokèmon, but that doesn't make him the strongest necessarily.

Arceus created the entire Pokemon world dude. Also, do you have proof that M2 can take HH and Lugia at the same time?

Acreus may be known as the original but it is still believed all Pokemon (expect the few Acreus made) came from Mew considering Mew has the DNA of all Pokemon.

True, but if you read the book in the game you would also know he took that power from himself, thus he's at best a shadow of his former glorious power.

Well not proof, but in the first movie we see Mewtwo hold out a hand to stop Hyper Beam in it's tracks. Lugia's signature move is Aeroblast, and Ho-oh uses intense fire. Hyperbeam is generally alot more powerful than Aeroblast. I know what your thinknig, and yes your right, Lugia is obviously way more powerful than the Pokèmon that used Hyperbeam, but Mewtwo wasn't trying, plus the damaged caused by the attack has nothing on Mewtwo's destructive power. Mewtwo is definatly > Lugia, I admit Ho-oH it's a bit of a guess, since i can't recall seeing it fight. I just assumed (perhaps foolishly) that Mewtwo can defeat Ho-oh by using his psychic, since unlike Lugia, Ho-oH can't defend himself with Pyshcic of his own.

But this is not really what we should fill the respect thread with ^^'

A Gydaros isn't stronger than Lugia or Ho-oh. Stopping Gydaros's hyper beam isn't the same in stopping Lugia's aeroblast or Ho-oh's sacred flame.

And I never read that part in the library that said Acreus is nothing more than a shadow of his former self. Acreus has the highest stats in Pokemon and can learn any move (expect for moves that have punch/kick in its name...for some reason)

Yeah, but the book in the libary in Diamond says Arceus was the first. Personally it's my theory Mew isn't from earth, i mean, in the intro you see him in space, and all, maybe he/she had something to do with Arceus....

Who knows? Anyway i'm just spitballing

I'm not saying it is, I'm saying that beam is still very powerful, the fact he can stop it without trying, might suggest if he actually tried, he's also be able to stop sacred flame or Aeroblast

Well it doesn't actually say he's a shadow of his former self, thats what I figure, because it says clearly, He took to power from himself.

Ah but Lugia's aeroblast stopped the three legendary birds' attacks in their tracks. Lugia and Ho-oh combined would take out Mewtwo, heck it said that Lugia stayed at the bottom of the ocean because his powers were so great they caused chaos and destruction wherever he went.

No, it stopped Zapdos and Mortres, Articuno had already been defeated by Moltres and Zados. Though that don't make it any less impressive don't get me wrong. However, Mewtwo's Psychic powers are way beyond Lugia's, that i don't think you can dissagree with. All he has to do is crash them into something hard, then use though Psyh balls.

I heard that, is that true or just a rumor?

Mewtwo is one of the most badass Pokemon ever.

Also what's that badass attack that he's doing where he's creating some kind of dark ball of energy?

I used to think Palkia was more powerful than Mewtwo after finishing Pearl. >.>

Yeah, he's among my favourites, still, can't beat Vulpix & Ninetales ^-^

I don't know, i don't recall it ever being made an actually attack in the games either. As far as i know it's refered to largly as "Psy Ball" or something, but i don't know it's true name.

Awesome. XD
