Attributes

Changes from Melee to PM

Mewtwo was buffed from Melee to Project M.

• General play changes, including decreased aerial lag, stronger attacks, faster dash speed, and an increase in weight.
• Mewtwo's tail is now significantly longer, greatly increasing the range of any attacks that utilize its tail, such as its up tilt, down tilt, and forward tilt.
• Confusion's effect is larger and sends victims into a tumbling state. Projectiles reflected by Confusion now inflict damage to the original user, further improving Confusion's utility.
• Shadow Ball is stronger, and even its uncharged effects pack a punch.
• Teleport no longer puts Mewtwo into a helpless state, and acting out of it is possible with anything but an air dodge.
• Mewtwo can now hover in a similar manner to Peach's float. While Mewtwo can float in any direction, its float duration is shorter and can only be done after a single jump, and Mewtwo will lose its midair jump.
• Is now vulnerable to the grab release glitch.
• Forward throw has been changed to a throw where Mewtwo condenses the enemy in a Shadow Ball and throws them ahead.

Armored Mewtwo

Armoured Mewtwo appears as Mewtwo's alternate costume. It is based upon the armour donned by Mewtwo in Mewtwo Strikes Back.

• There are two versions of this alternate costume: one silver as it was in the movie and one gold.
• On the back of the armor is inscribed "Pokemon-150", which is its National Pokedex number in the games.

Trivia

• At the time of Mewtwo's creation as a character in the mod, it was not possible to convert animations from Melee and import them into Brawl. As a result of having to do them all from scratch, Mewtwo's animations alone took approximately 700 hours to create. Project M Back Room member SiLeNtDo0m credits Haloedhero with the animation work in this forum post.
• When Kirby copies Mewtwo, he copies Disable rather than Shadow Ball.
