'''Mewtwo''' is a playable character in the ''[[Brawl]]'' mod ''[[Project M]]''. After being cut from ''Melee'', it returns with significant buffs. In ''Project M'', it is one of two characters that were not originally playable in ''Brawl'', the other being {{PM|Roy}}; in ''[[Project+]]'', it is one of three, with {{b|Knuckles|P+}} being the third. Mewtwo was the second [[File_replacement#Clone_Engine|clone engine character]] announced for ''Project M'', using {{PM|Lucario}} as a base. 

Masachika Ichimura's protrayal of Mewtwo from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' was re-purposed for Mewtwo's appearances in ''Project M'' onward. 

Mewtwo is ranked 3rd out of 41 on the [[Project M#Tier list|official]] [[tier list]] at the top of the A tier, a significant improvement from its 20th out of 26 placing in ''Melee''. In the official ''Project+'' {{h2|Project+|Tier list}}, Mewtwo ranks slightly lower at 5th, near the top of the A+ tier.

==Attributes==
As with ''Melee'', Mewtwo is a character that defies most character archetypes in that it is a tall, floaty, slow middleweight with a long disjointed range much like Zelda. Its long tail gives it an advantage against most characters in the cast, similarly to other disjointed characters, due to it allowing it to [[space]] with ease. It also has good zoning capabilities as a result of its tail attacks and [[Shadow Ball]]. It also has many versatile finishers, such as its smash attacks and down aerial. It also has one of the best grab and throw games of the cast, having two chain throws (up and down), two KO throws (up and back), and two combo throws (forward and down). Mewtwo also has one of the best recoveries in the game due to its fast air speed, slow falling speed, float mechanic, high double jump, and all of its specials being useable for recovery.  Mewtwo's greatest strength is its combo game, which is contributed to by its reach, float, frame data, low knockback attacks, and Teleport's new function going from ''Melee'' to ''PM'', offering for versatile combos that can lead directly into its finishers.

However, despite the numerous buffs it received, Mewtwo still has flaws. Its greatest weakness remains its survivability; even with its heavier weight, it maintains its tall frame and floatiness, and when combined with the harsher environment, makes it easy to combo and KO Mewtwo vertically, more so than the slightly floatier {{PM|Samus}} as a result of her extra weight. It also may have trouble KOing outside of combos, despite having many K.O options, due to its finishers generally being slow or having poor range. Mewtwo also has an extremely high technical learning curve to use all of its techniques to the fullest, requiring fast reflexes and nimble fingers.

Despite these weaknesses, Mewtwo's strengths and buffs significantly override them, making it among the most dominant characters in ''PM'''s metagame. However, after update 3.5 released, Mewtwo was notably nerfed, thus slightly reducing its success, though not enough to significantly harm it.

==Changes from ''Melee'' to ''PM''==
Mewtwo was significantly [[buff]]ed from ''Melee'' to ''Project M''. It has almost twice as much range on its tail attacks, its comboing ability has improved considerably with the addition of the float and Teleport's new properties, its survivability has improved, and all attacks received improvements to either damage, knockback, or range. Confusion and Disable were also massively buffed, however, they are still considered situational. While Mewtwo has been nerfed in updates following version 3.0, the nerfs have not severely hurt its tournament results. 

===Aesthetics===
*{{change|Animation for dropping through a [[soft platform]] now has Mewtwo's body flicker briefly.}}
*{{change|Mewtwo has been updated with universal changes introduced in ''Brawl''}}:
**{{change|Mewtwo now has an [[on-screen appearance]], where it teleports onto the stage and stretches a hand, emitting its cry from the main ''Pokémon'' games.}}
**{{change|Mewtwo now has a [[Wii Remote selection sound]], which uses the aforementioned battle cry.}} 
**{{change|Mewtwo has two new [[taunts]], bringing it up to the standard of three. Its taunt from ''Melee'' is assigned as a down taunt:}}
***{{change|Up taunt involves Mewtwo floating in a sitting pose with closed eyes, similar to how it appeared at [[bulbapedia:Dr. Fuji (anime)|Dr. Fuji]]'s lab in ''[[bulbapedia:M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. Mewtwo keeps floating as long as the taunt input is held.}}
***{{change|Its side taunt is similar to the on-screen appearance.}}
*{{change|Mewtwo's victory poses have been updated:}}
**{{change|Its victory pose where it spins and folds its arms now has it say "{{ja|愚かな.|Orokana.}}" (Foolish.) which is taken from the Japanese version of ''Melee''.}}
**{{change|It also has a new victory pose where it spins in place, floating up, and ultimately disappearing. This replaces the victory pose from ''Melee'' where it emits a dark aura rom its fingers; while maintaining the voice from the original.}} 
*{{change|Mewtwo has a new defeat pose. After losing a match, it floats while its turned away and looking back, similar to the artwork on the Pokémon selection screen of its appearance in ''[[bulbapedia:Pokémon_Stadium_(English)|Pokémon Stadium]]'' before battling it.}}

===Attributes===
*{{change|Mewtwo is [[Weight|heavier]] (85 → 97), now being a semi-middleweight character instead of a lightweight. However, since Mewtwo now exceeds 86 units, it is now vulnerable to Fox's waveshine combos, as it is pushed back by the shine instead of knocked down.}}
*{{buff|Mewtwo's tail is now significantly longer, greatly increasing the reach of any attacks that utilize its tail, such as its tilts. Additionally, only the inner half of the tail has a hurtbox (whereas in ''Melee'' the entire tail had a hurtbox), thus giving Mewtwo significant [[disjointed hitbox]]es for its tail attacks.}}
*{{buff|Mewtwo can now hover in a similar manner to {{PM|Peach}}'s [[float]]:}}
**{{buff|Unlike Peach, Mewtwo can gain vertical height from its float. }}
**{{nerf|Its float duration is shorter (for about a bit more than one second), and using it will cause Mewtwo to lose its [[midair jump]].}}
**{{buff|Hovered aerials have their [[landing lag]] removed, akin to Peach's [[float cancel]].}}
*{{buff|[[Sidestep]] now involves Mewtwo vanishing, akin to its air dodge. It is significantly shorter than its ''Melee'' version, allowing Mewtwo to act out of it sooner.}}
*{{nerf|Mewtwo is now vulnerable to the [[grab release glitch]].}}

===Ground Attacks===
*{{buff|The minimum amount of hits delivered by the second hit of Mewtwo's [[neutral attack]] is now just one (as opposed to ''Melee''{{'}}s eight hits), making the move optionally much shorter, and therefore allowing Mewtwo to effectively follow-up.}}
*{{buff|All tilts have less ending lag.}}
*{{change|Forward tilt's sweetspot is now located at the tip of the tail, while the rest of the attack is weaker. It no longer has a slash effect.}}
*{{buff|Mewtwo's forward smash has a smaller sourspot, a much larger sweetspot, and the shadow blast is much larger, giving the move about twice the reach. The knockback of the sweetspot is also more powerful.}}
*{{change|Sourspot of forward smash possesses a neutral effect, making it more noticeable.}}
*{{buff|The hits of [[up smash]] link better into each other. The final hit is additionally more powerful and deals slightly more damage.}}
*{{buff|Down smash produces a slightly larger shadow blast to slightly improve its reach, and it now has a sweetspot on the inner half of the move that hits more powerfully, while the sourspot has the move's ''Melee'' power. Additionally, the latter half of the move has a weak lingering hitbox (instead of having no hitbox) and the attack has much less ending lag (having almost no lag after hitboxes cease).}}

===Aerial Attacks===
*{{buff|All aerials have less landing lag.}}
*{{buff|Neutral aerial connects better and is slightly stronger, increasing its overall utility.}}
*{{buff|Forward aerial's hitboxes are more favorably placed, the hitbox being enlarged and moved closer to the tip of Mewtwo's fingers.}}
*{{buff|Down aerial's hitboxes are more favorably placed and specific spacing is no longer required to avoid landing the sourspot, with the sourspot being smaller and placed higher, while the intermediate and sweetspot hitboxes are larger and make up a larger portion of the move. The attack additionally produces slightly stronger knockback.}}

===Grabs and Throws===
*{{buff|[[Forward throw]] changed to crushing opponent in a Shadow Ball, then throwing them ahead. It has the same angle as the original throw, but racks up damage more reliably (now always dealing a fixed amount of damage), and produces much stronger knockback, now being a potential KO move when used near edges.}}

===Special Moves===
*{{buff|[[Shadow Ball]] is stronger, and even when uncharged it has stronger [[knockback]] than before. It also travels considerably faster.}}
*{{buff|[[Confusion]]'s effect now sends victims upwards into a [[tumbling]] state after spinning them, it is safer on hit than in ''Melee'', where every character could punish it on-hit with a back aerial and produces a slight [[wind]] effect a small distance outside its grab to make it more difficult to punish. It also now acts as a proper [[reflector]], with projectiles reflected by Confusion inflicting damage to the original user, further improving Confusion's utility. It can still pull opponents through platforms (although this is harder than in ''Melee'' as a midair jump must be input first) and the rise up can [[stage spike]] if the platform is solid.}}
*{{buff|[[Teleport]] no longer puts Mewtwo into a [[helpless]] state if used before a midair jump, and acting out of it is possible with anything but an [[air dodge]] (or another Teleport), making it more useful for recovery mix-ups and combos.}}
*{{buff|[[Disable]] has increased reach, now affects enemies from behind, and can no longer be reflected. It also has significantly increased power on midair foes, dealing 9% more damage.}}
*{{nerf|Mewtwo can no longer Teleport downward through [[soft platform]]s that it is standing on.}}
*{{buff|[[Disable]] no longer deals knockback to already-[[Stun|dazed]] characters, nor does it increase their stun time. It does add slightly more damage, however, and the attack not causing knockback enables Mewtwo to follow up with other, stronger attacks.}}

==Changes from ''PM'' to ''P+''==
===Aesthetics===
*{{bugfix|Mewtwo now has its own soundbank separate of Lucario, eliminating related bugs and oddities from ''Project M''.}}
*{{change|Mewtwo's tail swings have costume-specific graphics.}}
*{{change|Final Smash voice lines changed, given audio effects to match other characters.}}
*{{bugfix|Fixed issues related to Mewtwo's eye movement when using forward smash, up smash, forward air, and forward throw.}}
*{{bugfix|Fixed issue where most Mewtwo eye animations did not trigger while having a final smash glow.}}
*{{change|Mewtwo's ledge getup attacks have been normalized.}}

==Revisions==
===v3.01===
*{{buff|Grab release animation sped up to avoid potential grab release combos or re-grabs.}}
*{{change|Up tilt animation cleaned up.}}
*{{change|Model optimized to no longer cause significant lag.}}

===v3.5===
*{{nerf|Tail is 15% shorter.}}
*{{buff|Infinite jabs deal slightly more damage.}}
*{{buff|Up tilt deals slightly more damage at the body.}}
**{{change|Its trajectory and knockback has been altered.}}
*{{buff|Down tilt has less endlag.}}
*{{nerf|Down smash has more endlag.}}
*{{nerf|Forward aerial has slightly more startup.}}
*{{nerf|Up aerial has slightly more startup and more endlag.}}
*{{nerf|Shadow Ball has become smaller.}}
**{{nerf|It also has more startup.}}
*{{buff|Confusion deals more knockback.}}
*{{nerf|Can no longer act out of teleport if used after second jump.}}
*{{nerf|Can no longer teleport through stage corners.}}
*{{change|Disable can no longer clank with opponent's attacks.}}

===v3.6===
*{{change|Shadow Ball and its trail [http://i.imgur.com/zVps6RS.png received a makeover], now resembling the move's appearance throughout recent games in the ''Pokémon'' franchise as opposed to ''Melee's'' purple and blue color.}}
*{{change|All of Mewtwo's sound effects and graphical aspects have been carried over from ''Melee''.}}

: '''Mewtwo''' 
:''A Genetic Pokémon. This legendary Pokémon was based on a recombination of Mew's DNA, created by a scientist after years of research. However, Mewtwo greatly differs from Mew in both size and personality and it is said to have the most twisted and savage heart among all Pokémon. Mewtwo has incredibly high combat abilities and uses Psychic-type attacks.''

==Alternate costumes==
===Project M===
Mewtwo's design received a large overhaul from ''Melee'' to ''Project M''. Where Melee based its design from Generation I and II (games for the Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Nintendo 64), its new design reflects Generation IV (games that were for the Wii and Nintendo DS, and made around the same time as ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''). It matches Brawl's more realistic environment like other characters. 

It retains all of its costumes from ''Melee'', while also gaining a new gray color scheme and alternate costumes based upon its armor set seen in ''Mewtwo Strikes Back.''

===Project+===
In ''[[Project+]]'', Mewtwo received additional colors. The yellow skin is based on the sprite from ''Pokémon Yellow''). Armored Mewtwo gains a green and blue color, and Rocket Mewtwo was included as the red team color for this costume set. Shadow Mewtwo from ''Pokkén Tournament'' is the third costume with additional colors.

All Costumes:
*'''Z-Secret Costume:''' Shadow Armored Mewtwo: A color scheme for the Armored Mewtwo costume that references Shadow Pokémon from ''Pokémon Colosseum'' and ''Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness'' (more specifically, the latter game's Shadow Lugia). An extra detail involves Mewtwo's digits being more claw-like.
*'''R-Secret Costume:''' Mega Mewtwo X: One of Mewtwo's [[bulbapedia:Mega Evolution|Mega Evolutions]] introduced in Generation VI, being activated when it is holding [[bulbapedia:Mewtwonite X|Mewtwonite X]] and the player Mega Evolves it. This is the only Mewtwo-related [[bulbapedia:Mega Evolution|Mega Evolution]] that's not usable in future ''Super Smash Bros.'' 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'' Backroom member SiLeNtDo0m credits Haloedhero with the animation work in [http://smashboards.com/threads/floaty-purposes-mewtwo-general.341207/#post-15904161 this forum post.]
*In ''Project M'', when Kirby copies Mewtwo, he copies Disable rather than Shadow Ball. According to ''Project M'' Backroom member {{Sm|Gimpyfish}}, this is due to the difficulty of programming a new projectile for a pre-existing character. This was eventually fixed in ''Project+'', where Kirby properly copies Shadow Ball from Mewtwo.
**An unreleased ''Project M'' build shows though that a proper Shadow Ball ability for Kirby was in development and well under way. 
*Before ''Project+'' came to be, there were some minor oddities with Mewtwo's voice clips during battle, distinctions shared by fellow clone engine fighter {{PM|Roy}}. This is no longer the case, as they now have their own soundback with enhanced voice and sound effects. The following oddities were removed:
**Mewtwo's SFX were of a significantly lower quality than Melee, although an [http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=207338 unofficial patch] for 3.5 proved that this was unnecessary for the official release.
**Mewtwo's voice could be heard when it entered Metal form.
**Prior to the v3.6 Beta, Mewtwo's sound effects replaced [[Galleom]]'s, resulting in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEgFRimMvmM atypical behaviour] when fighting him. After 3.6, its sound effects were then shared with {{PM|Lucario}}.
*[[Mewtwo]] was [https://twitter.com/ProjectMGame/status/389947763590299648 "leaked"] in version 2.6 of ''Project M'', with a screenshot of Mewtwo and {{PM|Pikachu}} on Pokémon Stadium 2 being used as a screen texture on said stage. However, it was barely noticed. These were changed to be different pictures after version 3.0.
*Like {{PM|Roy}}, anything that would normally be exclusive to Mewtwo (namely, a [[Codec Conversations|codec conversation]]) reuses that of {{PM|Mario}}'s.
**Interestingly, Mewtwo uses many data slots that were originally used for {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}}. Clearing Classic Mode with it, {{PM|Charizard}}, {{PM|Squirtle}} or {{PM|Ivysaur}} will play Pokémon Trainer's "Congratulations" video and Mewtwo's "Congratulations" screen, and any records with any of the four characters are added to Mewtwo's records. The Pokémon Trainer's name is changed to "Mewtwo" except in the [[Sound Test]] and his character introduction in [[The Subspace Emissary]].
**Furthermore, clearing Classic mode with Mewtwo grants the player the Mewtwo trophy.
*When accessing [[replay]]s in ''Brawl'', Mewtwo shows up as an iconless character under the name "Pokeystatue".
*Whenever Mewtwo appears while Lucario is in the stage in [[All-Star]] mode, its hands will have an aura effect.
*If one were to delete the custom file used for the announcer calls in ''Project M'' and selects Mewtwo in-game, it reveals to use an unused clip for the [[Fighting Alloy Team]].
*Coincidentally, Mewtwo's Final Smash is named [[Psystrike]], which would become Mewtwo's Final Smash in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', although it functions completely differently.
