So there's a rumour going around that both of Mewtwo's mega forms will make an appearance in the next Pokemon movie. With our classic Mewtwo as X and the Newtwo as Y.

Looks like we got some more fuel for the fire if this is true.

Well, that's new. The latest Pokemon movie showed Mega Mewtwo X & Mega Mewtwo Y on a promotional poster. Of course, neither they nor many of the Megas on said poster actually appeared in the movie itself. And the teaser at the end of the newest movie teased Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre... so... probably a faux rumor.

Pokemon trailers and posters are apparently not accurate to what the movie will actually show. For example with Mewtwo's most recent movie trailer there was a scene where Mewtwo swoops in to save Ash and co. from an attack from Genesect and Ash looks up and goes "Mewtwo!?" like he is remembering him and that scene never aired. I do hope both Mewtwo's are in not just because of Smash but because the more Mewtwo the better.

Well, considering we've seen virtually nothing of Mega Mewtwo X yet (besides in the game) I'd say the next movie would be the perfect reason to showcase him. Both X and Y appeared in the opening credits of the Mega Evolution Special pt 1 as well.

Y is getting too much attention though lately imo, even though that's not a bad thing at all. I just want to see some of X now.

Same. I just don't have the time or money I used to... but a bigger reason is I'd refuse to purchase a product made by a man who trolls his customers/fans for months on end, only to have highly requested fighters axed for the likes of Wii Fit Trainer or Miis. /mostly-referencing-Ridley

If Mewtwo not being in saves me $30+, so be it.
Those words really speak to me.

I find Sakurai's comment abut apologizing about the fact that not everyone will make it to be less genuine.

There's nothing the fans can do except hope things shape in their favor since the ball's in Sakurai's court and his bias calls all the shots.

So in terms of Mega evolutions for Mewtwo, which one does everyone in this forum seem to prefer and why?

For myself, I prefer Mewtwo Y because the design looks better to me. He seems to take after Mew a bit more and I'll be honest, I use to prefer Mew to Mewtwo when I was younger.

If Mega Mewtwo is to appear, it would be MMY.

It's been featured in a lot of non-main series media such as the Genesect movie & prologue, Art Academy, and holds the distinction of being the first Mega revealed in our universe.

We may get a Mewtwo reveal at comic con but I wouldn't hold my breathe. At this time Im betting on a secret character and there will be no reveal.

Oh man I remember when I first saw the leaks of MMY. People were like, wtf? Mewtwo gets an evolution?! Fake!

The design for Mega Mewtwo X appeals to me alot more than the Y. People seem to think the larger arms and legs look strange, but it seems like a natural addition to a Pokemon who just got super ripped has such a high base Attack stat. But what I like most is the face. It's more reminiscent to the old-school look of Mewtwo, having the overhanging curved lip (which has been removed in the modern design).

Stat-wise, MMY is the "definitive" Mewtwo, being faster and stronger, especially in its Sp. Atk. But I really like how MMX is basically a dual-typed Mewtwo with a much higher Atk. and upped defenses (MMY trades quite a bit of Def. for Sp. Def., and I'm not too comfortable with that).

MMY makes more sense to be in the game for reasons stated already like the movies and posters.Off topic:When does that 3ds tournament start?

Based on how this stream is going, the odds of there being a reveal is .00001%
Yeah. Seriously whats up with their "challenge" ? I reached world 3 in Lost Levels with 7 years old! Dying ONCE! ._.

I dunno man. Nintendo Challenge. Challenger approaching. *grasps at straws*
Maybe if the challenge was catching MewTwo with Pokeballs... Which has a way higher chance of happening than them succeeding.

What is the significance of the "Wario(tm)" above the box art? Why is that even there?



You mean the 3DS tourney at San Diego Comicon? Appears to still be going on, just check Twitch.
You can browse eShop by characters and it shows games they are starring in. Wario's list had Smash Bros on it for a bit they removed it though.

Where in that massive post is the phrase you quoted? I can't find it.
I think it was on page 9 or so in the thread he linked. Here it is.

With Brawl, according to sources @thethirdkoopa has (note: don't apply this to Smash 4), the SSE killed production of a ton of characters.

Like, a ton.

And according to them, the last "cuts" to make the roster a full 38 characters (Sonic was added in 2007, and this was in 2005) were...
Roy: They found him boring. He was cut sometime in mid-2005 or some time around then.
Mewtwo: They wanted to partially remake him. They had programming issues with this and was kind of glitchy. So, they cut him sometime in late 2005 or early 2006. He was much further in development than Roy though.

So yes, it was the SSE that cut those 2, and a lot of other character (ideas) then.

Don't expect something like that to happen again.

There will be no equivalent situation to that again.
I really hope programming issues and glitches don't hamper Mewtwo from returning; I would love to see a remade Mewtwo!

To be honest, I would have given up SSE for more characters.

If there's any kind of surprise at all, it will be tomorrow, apparently.

Also, wow, those last few Bowser matches were really great. And I think 3DS Battlefield looks even better than the WiiU version. AND THAT ROBE, much wow.

Sorry if this has been asked, but:

Whose trailer should Mewtwo be a part of? Mewtwo is big news, but he is not a newcomer and it seems only Newcomers get their own trailers, so who should Mewtwo be paired with?
Well. Captain Falcon got in a trailer with the Fire Emblem crew. I certainly wouldn't expect the expected.

A really good trailer would be a "Dark" trailer. Where they reveal Gannondorf, Mewtwo, and some other "evil" newcomer.

Ridley and K. Rool are excellent candidates for some other "evil" newcomers.
