Moveset[]
Mewtwo plays just like his counterparts in the previous Smash games, outside of a new Final Smash. However, he gains two bar meters that affect how his Final Smash is utilized. Save for Shadow Mewtwo's costumes, most of Mewtwo's psychic powers resemble the pink that accompanies the type icon found in Gen 3 and on. The exceptions are the Shadow Balls found in forward throws, Neutral Special, and the electricity on his Neutral Air.
Neutral Special | Shadow Ball | Sends a chargable ghostly orb at foes. |
---|---|---|
Side Special | Confusion | Deflects projectiles coming at Mewtwo. If it catches a foe, the foe is telekinetically lifted and dropped. |

Trophy info[]
Mewtwo:[]
Number 150, Mewtwo, the Genetic Pokémon. This Pokémon was created by humans as a genetic manipulation of Mew's DNA. Mewtwo was born to be a battler, maybe the ultimate one. It is considered a savage beast, seemingly lacking mercy or compassion. It's two Mega Forms is a testament to its high amount of battle power. Its immense psychic abilities are just a part of its battle repertoire. There is one Mewtwo that's heard of that gained mercy and compassion. I guess metamorphic evolution isn't the only type Pokémon can acquire.
Mewtwo (Alt):[]
Mega Mewtwo Y/Mega Mewtwo X:[]
Mewtwo has two bar meters, the red Y bar and the blue X, that determine its attack. If Mewtwo has a tie of bars or Y bar is more than the X one, Mega Mewtwo Y show up and uses Psystrike which mentally stuns foes and then launches them far. If the X bar is more than the Y bar, Mega Mewtwo X starts with a flurry of Psycho Cuts and finishes the foe with Zen Headbutt. Both of these attacks achieve the same results the same result of high knockback.

Trivia[]
- The trophy describing of a Mewtwo gaining mercy and compassion is referring to the Mewtwo that appeared in Mewtwo Strikes Back and Mewtwo Returns
- The Metal Gear characters referenced with Mewtwo's crossplay/cosplay are as follows: The glasses are from The Sorrow from MGS3, the black sleeves are from Psycho Mantis from MGS1, and the scarf is from Ocelot's design in the MGS5 Phantom Pain. These characters have some connections to psychic abilities implied or obvious.
