'''Mewtwo''' is a powerful psychic [[Pokémon]]. He was the last of the original 150 Pokémon in the "first generation" games and one of the most powerful Pokémon to be found in the game.

=Information=

Mewtwo was created through years of horrific gene splicing and recombining DNA.  He is mostly like [[Mew]], however, it’s taller, more powerful, and has a more limited move set.  Despite his power, Mewtwo wasn’t created to be compassionate, whether it was intentional or an unintended side effect is never explained.

Mewtwo was once an embryo in the womb of its mother, [[Mew]]. This makes Mew the only Pokémon known to give live birth. Scientists altered its growth during its gestation period, or the Mew was artificially inseminated. Whatever the case, Mewtwo was born in the [[Burnt Mansion|Pokémon Mansion]] on [[Cinnabar Island]].  Mewtwo is suspected to have killed his creators. It is known that Mewtwo is responsible for the nickname [[Burnt Mansion]].  It then fled to Cerulean Cave, and hid in the most distant pit of it. 

Mewtwo rarely moves its arms or legs to conserve energy.  Though it can’t use every [[TM]] and [[HM]], Mewtwo is still a force to be reckoned with, since it is more powerful.  Combined with its antisocial behavior make it ruthless.

==One of a Kind==

Mewtwo has the distinction of possibly being the only one of a kind Pokémon. Others, like [[Ho-Oh]], [[Lugia]], and [[Deoxys]] can be captured in multiple games or make appearances in games multiple times, like [[Pokémon Colosseum]].  It’s theoretically possible that there is more than one Mewtwo, since one could trade a Mewtwo from one game to another that already has a Mewtwo. However there has been no in game mention of this, so whatever means Mewtwo would be able to reproduce is never thoroughly explained.  (For the record, Mewtwo could be female, asexual, or breed with [[Ditto|Dittos]] to reproduce; however in game Mewtwo lacks gender, and cannot breed with anything.)

In ''[[Pokémon Stadium]]'', Mewtwo fights [[Red]] using himself.  [[Silver]] owns a Mewtwo, Lugia, and Ho-Oh in ''[[Pokémon Stadium 2]]''.  Whether this is the same Mewtwo remains to be seen.  They could, indeed, be two different Mewtwos.  There is no in game evidence either way.

=Appearances=

==Mainstream Games==

Mewtwo can only be found in Cerulean Cave in ''[[Pokémon: Red, Green and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red, Green, Blue]]'' and ''[[Pokémon: Yellow Version|Yellow]]'', as well as ''[[Pokémon: FireRed and LeafGreen Versions]]''. It is only encountered once, found at the end of the cave.

==Other Games==

Mewtwo appears in ''[[Pokémon Pinball]]'', where it is encountered only on the [[Indigo Plateau]] and is the last Pokémon to appear prior to Mew. In ''[[Pokémon Stadium]]'' Mewtwo appears as the final enemy after the Gym Leader Castle is completed.

In ''[[Pokémon Puzzle League]]'', Mewtwo appears as the final boss of Very Hard or Super Hard modes, and claims to be the legendary Puzzle Master. [[Silver]] also has a Mewtwo alongside the legendary Pokémon [[Lugia]] and [[Ho-oh]] in ''[[Pokémon Stadium 2]]''. In ''[[Pokémon Trozei!]]'', Mewtwo could only be found in Mr. Who's Den.

In ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]'', Mewtwo was the boss of the Western Cave, found in the cave's ninety-ninth. He was shown to have put himself into suspended animation but battled anyone who disturbed his slumber. He was described as the most powerful Pokémon in this game, even compared to later legendary Pokémon such as [[Rayquaza]]. Mewtwo had to be defeated more than once before he would agree to join the player's party.

=Other Appearances=

==Video Games==

*Mewtwo also appears as a hidden playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. He is unlocked by playing 700 Vs. Mode matches or by playing 20 hours of combined time in Vs. Mode. Mewtwo has three unlockable trophies in the game.
*Mewtwo has since been removed from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and replaced with [[Lucario]], though a text dump of the game lists him as a fighter, implying that he may have been intended to return. Mewtwo still appears in ''Brawl'' as a trophy.

==Other Media==

*In the anime, Mewtwo was featured in the first movie. In it Mewtwo was created by a lab funded by [[Team Rocket]] and completely destroyed the laboratory. He was then tricked into serving [[Giovanni]] until he became tired of being used and fled. Mewtwo then created an army of Pokémon clones to destroy and replace the people and Pokémon of the world he believed to be corrupt. Mewtwo later reached an epiphany after a battle with Mew, [[Red#Other Media|Ash Ketchum]] and several other Pokémon trainers. Mewtwo made several additional anime appearances with a less malevolent role.

=Trivia=

*Although the real Mewtwo doesn't appear in the game, one of the Pokémon Signs in ''[[Pokémon Snap]]'' is a shadow shaped like Mewtwo.
