I would not be surprised if Mewtwo doesn't come back. Melee has Pikachu, Jiggly, Mewtwo and Pichu all which promoted Gen 1 and 2 of pokemon, with Crystal having been released shortly before Melee. Lucario replaced Mewtwo as Gen 4 has just came out and they wanted to promote Diamond and Pearl while Poke Trainer replaced Pichu probably because of FireRed and Leafgreen and possibly the anime. As for Smash 4, Greninja promotes X and Y along with the vets Pikachu and Jiggly. As for why they kept Lucario...no idea. Maybe Lucario was just a popular enough character that they wanted to keep him. Given the popularity of Mewtwo, they *could* bring him back since he's a legendary in X and Y but theres always a chance he wont. I'm also hoping that Mewtwo doesn't return for another reason: Over-representation. Pokemon will have 4 reps already, and while 4 is a fine number to have, there are other series that only have one or two. Like Metroid. and while I know that Mewtwo's inclusion won't exclusively make Ridley, Kraid, Rundas or Dark Samus not be in the game, it would be a huge middle finger to have all these new and returning characters for other series and then just have Samus crying alone because her only friends are dead

TL;DR Theres hope for him, but don't really count on him returning.
Pokemon had six playable characters in Brawl, and it almost had seven - it getting six playable characters (since Jigglypuff's almost definitely returning) this time around isn't much of a stretch.

Besides, it's not like Mewtwo's inclusion makes a new Metroid character impossible - personally, I think that both Ridley and Mewtwo are likely! (Mewtwo for his sheer popularity, as well as its relevance to the sixth generation seeing as it was the only one of two Pokemon to get multiple Mega Evolutions, and Ridley for reasons that are already discussed in the second post of the Ridley thread so there's no reason for me to bring them up here)

Actually Lucario didn't replace Mewtwo, he was planned to be in the game. Sakurai just ran into technical limitations and time restraints. Sakurai also said he doesn't like cutting characters, and a lot of people were mad Mewtwo got cut. This could be Sakurai's last Smash game, so I think he wants to make it right by including Mewtwo this time.
Woah woah woah, when was there any indication of that?

Yo yo yo, it's fairly recent news:
No, I meant about this being Sakurai's last Smash game, when was that ever indicated?
@ Steelia Steelia No, I meant the part about this being Sakurai's last Smash game, where and when was THAT ever indicated?

@ Rubbertop Rubbertop I'm a day late but Welcome to SmashBoards!
@CharizardY Welcome to SmashBoards!!
@ LIQUID12A LIQUID12A Never! Egg puns are eggcelent.:4yoshi:

Seems to be a lot of mixed character discussion in here. Lets put an egg to that.:4yoshi:

Mewtwo may get a change from his SB to something else, maybe a charge-able spread-shot projectile like Psystrike.
Tail becomes darkness-based like @woopyfrood said, making him so much more unique.
Optional spoon in taunt, but unlikely to be in his actualy move-set, similar to Falcon's gun & Ganon's sword.
MOre to come etc. etc.

Yeah ask a mod, to help edit your posts into one. Try not to post so much, at best edit your single posts unless you feel the need to get a point across with a huge line of posts, or if the time in between your 2 posts are long enough.

Delete Post should be an option so we could fix our mistakes much quicker.

You know, whenever I see your posts, I just imagine the Egghead from the Adam West Batman show writing this all up.

As for Mewtwo, I'd be fine with any sort of overhaul. Would be really cool if he could use the elemental moves like Thunderbolt or Ice Beam, since he is capable of learning them.[/user]

@ Xzsmmc Xzsmmc Eggscuse me?:yoshi2:
Funny that I deliver that imagination. 'Till playing Project M, I enjoy Mewtwo's F-smash, D-smash, & U-smash. F-air, F-throw, & N-air ; I would prefer if his D-throw instead of being a tail smacking slam, I prefer it be a throw levitating the foe upward & slamming them down on the ground exactly how you see Mewtwo carry a Beam Sword & use the smash attack.

It was never indicated it's just Sakurai has some health issues and will probably take a break after this game. He also doesn't like making sequels, but yeah he never said anything like this is it. It is clearly speculation, and of course I hope he continues making Smash.

So it's been a week since Meta Knight so maybe tomorrow we will get another revveal. Mewtwo starts with the letter M as well so it could be him(extreme straw grasping):mewtwopm:

If that meant anything for Smash Bros, he would've just stopped after Melee. Plus, Smash is too popular for him to just stop making them, at least until he retires.

I think he wanted Brawl to be the last game(don't quote me on that I'm just thinking I heard it somewhere). My thinking is that he is grooming Bandai Namco to help take the reigns for the next one. All of these thought point back to me thinking that Sakurai wants to put Mewtwo back in to show his love for us fans!!

@ strawhatninja strawhatninja Sakurai quoted somewhere on a source that he designed Brawl as if it were the last Smash Brothers, not that it will be the last Smash Brothers. This is why, this is why, that's why Mewtwo's in.:teeth:

Wario had a section in the 3DS eShop, and one of the games listed under his name (as a game he's appeared in) was Smash 3DS. Of course, they took it down pretty quick, but everything lives on on the internet. Not that he isn't a guarantee anyway, what with his franchise icon being used for Waluigi and Ashley's assist trophies, and being fairly popular as is.

Now if only we could have a character slip up but with Mewtwo...
ow you mean as in that promotion where they had like all the megaman games and that on sale because of the new characters in the game?

Offtopic: Why does Zero Suit Samus have a bikini?
ikr and everyone said ZSS new design was already sexist?

No need to cross, making yourselves anticipate something that appears of nothing is just digging your hole of worry. Take it easy & keep loving Mewtwo.
Zamus' attire is from her games, not bikini

This one...no. Not *bleeping* happening. Duck Hunt Dog? For real?
Most likely fake, considering:

Wario's face,
Doc, Lucina, and Dark Pit's placements,
The leaker claiming to be working for ESRB, when they don't playtest games,

just to name a few.

Guys? Jigglypuff is there. Mewtwo isn't. FAKE.
Yes, puffball is cut until Sakurai confirms otherwise, get over it.

Came up in the Ridley thread too. THIS IS A "LEAK," IT'S FAKE.

Oh that's fake.

Falco, Ganondorf, Wario, and Bowser Jr. look inconsistent among the rest of the cast. Plus, why would Dr. Mario come back?
