Hey guys, something to note

On the official Australian Smash site, it says

'An introduction to the veteran fighter, Mewtwo, has been added'

...does this mean... NOT femtwo? (not that I mind if it is, I just want Melee Mewtwo back)

I'm not completely sure. I mean, yes, it could very well mean that it's male Mewtwo, but at the same it could just be saying that Mewtwo itself is back, but not necessarily with all the same assets.
On the subject of Mewtwo's voice, I actually think that Sakurai and the devs are deliberately keeping us in the dark about it. I mean, in Melee, Mewtwo made noises when he used Confusion and Disable, along with a few other attacks. It's really strange that he didn't have voice clips. I think that it's possible that they deliberately cut out Mewtwo's voice for the promotional gameplay just to tease us and hold our interest. It's also possible that they didn't put in Mewtwo's voice because they're waiting to reveal something special about it over the next 2 weeks. Voice select, anyone?

There's a few options (for the Eng version at least):

Dan Green
Masachicka Ichimura
Miriam Pultro
Reiko Takashima
Jay Goede

Personally, I hope Masachika Ichimura voices him again, his voice was sinister in Melee and I loved it. Otherwise Dan Green (but I doubt that would ever happen) or Reiko, if not Miriam. I guess it depends and we'll find out on the 15th.

 

[C3CC]

Dear God, please let Mewtwo be male/feral. I'll absolutely despise a female voice.

In other news, I updated my avatar and my signature, and changed my Smashboards theme to Cobalt I don't think anyone here cares about that anyway, LOL.

Also, am I the only one who is way more calm now that we got a release date? I actually feel like it was yesterday when we were told about Mewtwo's return. I even think "But isn't he coming, like, way too soon?", and then I remember we've been waiting for a whopping five months. It's like the whole waiting countdown restarted yesterday with the trailer.

 

[lltacx]

I'm not one to use custom moves but, i wonder what kind of moves he has i'd really like a Barrier Custom

 

[Mr. Johan]

Mewtwo Mega Evolves to take out Dr. Mario, Robin, and Wario.

A doctor, a scientist, and a money-focused jerk...

Was...was that a sly reference to Mewtwo killing Dr. Fuji and his team of scientists, and rebelling against Giovanni?

Because that's what I'm assuming.

 

[ミスティック Speed]

'Ere ya go!

Spoiler

While I was at it I made one in honor of @ U-Throw

Spoiler

And one because it's just so darn cute.

Spoiler

Can you make one for when he Mega Evolves and uses Psystrike please <3

 

[Rocksmasha]

Too bad for no hat alts, I wanted to play as Bison Mewtwo.

FOR ME IT WAS TUESDAAAAAAAAY!

 

[VioletSmashfan]

Er, I made this one if you want it...[collapse=Big]

[/collapse]

If you want I can make you one from whatever part...

Can you do the part where he taunts at the end of the trailer, along with his dark reveal from the beginning (without the splash art).

Make em small enough, but around the height of my Violet gif sig (which is what I want for Mewtwo's dark intro).

 

[ミスティック Speed]

lol @NonSpecificGuy
I hope we're not overwhelming you...;~;
AHHHHHHHHHH! It's so cool!!!----------------------------------------------------------------------------------->>>

Forgot Mari Devon.

No, she's never done Mewtwo before.

But if we're to have Femtwo I would have her before Miriam Pultro.

 

[Rocksmasha]

I find it unlikely we are getting Femtwo as, we got the title card "Mewtwo Strikes Back" which had a male Mewtwo. Instead of the more obvious for Femtwo which would have been "Mewtwo Awakens".

Do please note that this would not be the first time we've assumed one outcome based on a trailer or POTD only to turn out flatly wrong.

I don't know....
Mewtwo Mega Evolves into the Y Forme. Which is what the female happened to do.
The original Mewtwo never knew of Mega Evolution....unless he learned....

Yes, but also keep in mind that Mega Mewtwo Y makes far more sense for Mewtwo's Final Smash than Mega Mewtwo X. He uses Psystrike, which is a Special move. Since Mega Mewtwo Y specializes in Special Attack, it makes perfect sense for Mewtwo to Mega Evolve into him. Also, Mega Charizard X is already in the game as a Final Smash, so adding Mega Mewtwo Y evens out the representation. I would say that, while Mega Mewtwo Y may be a slight indicator of Mewtwo's gender, there are also several other variables at play, so take it with a grain of salt.

Also, I think I've said this before, but I absolutely love Mewtwo's Final Smash. I literally can't think of anything that would've been better. It's just so awesome!

People also assumed he would have used Psystrike alone, without Mega Evolving.
I think that would of pointed more towards the original since Mewtwo did use Psystrike. (It's that blue light that destroyed the lab and Giovanni's Gym. THE MORE YOU KNOW!!)
But yeah, in terms of giving everyone what they wanted/love...his Final Smash is more then anyone could have imagined...it's beyond perfect. lol

Congrats Mewtwo/Lucas fans for getting our psychic faves back.

From Mewtwo's trailer I like to point out a few things.

1. They played a safe route by keep Mewtwo's moves the same from Melee. Confusion at least works like it should and hopefully Disable will be more usefull.

2. As I expected, Mewtwo's FS mega evolves and then uses what appears to be Psystrike. MMY only appears to be cinematic and not actually used like Mega Lucario and Charizard.

3. Potential custom specials

Psycho cut for Side B (confusion animation works well with how the attack animates in the pokemon games)

Variation of disable that actually disables the special attack last used by the opponent.

4. Like how they went out of the way to not have Lucario appear in the trailer or any of the website screenshots.

5. From Mewtwo's splash screen to the lack of voice in the trailer, it supports the idea that Mewtwo will be akin to its original character from the first movie. While there still developing the character and haven't likely choosen a VA yet, if Femtwo was the obvious choice then we would have heard it in the trailer, so maybe there still deciding if they want to go that route or not. It is fishy that Mewtwo was completely mute in the trailer but not Lucas (even though it's obvious that they recycled his Brawl voice).

Mewtwo could simply be mute in this game. I wouldn't mind that...it'll keep it ambiguous and up to the player to decide which Mewtwo it is.
It's not like Mewtwo doesn't sound epic as is, anyways. :3

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Hi! Never cared for Mewtwo till the Extravaganza but want to main him, thought I'd go here

 

[MrSmashFour]

You wont get any codes till the 18th....*sigh* Well, at least we get them sooner then the people who have to buy them.

Actually, the codes arrive on the 15th, not the 18th.

 

[Schnee117]

One problem with the 15th.
It interferes with my heisting in Los Santos on PC and dismemberment in MK X.
Impeccable timing.

Then give the code to me~

A Greninja player who wants to drop Greninja for Mewtwo?
My how the tables have turned... Might has well confirm that Greninja will be excluded from the next Smash.

IT'S EITHER MEWTWO OR GRENINJA!!
Having both as mains is like having Seviper and Zangoose become close friends. ...ew.

 

[Schnee117]

We both know the answer to that one.

Awww, that's the cutest fetus-looking thing I've ever seen!

 

[U-Throw]

Mew.
The fetus-looking thing.
It's name is Mew.

To mke it worse for you

Theres speciulation in th trailer some people may have heard mewtwos grunt from mewtwo

The ms particual part is when mewtwo used confusion on greninja while using the beam sword.

You're talking to a girl who has memorized every pokemon, I just think Mew looks like a fetus
EDIT: About the voice, put headphones in, he grunts when doing shadow ball iirc

I gusse that would make Mewtwo more menacing, we all know that quiet person stereotype.

From what people are saying though, are those who registered will be able to download Mewtwo on the 15 or just get the codes? The direct didn't really specify that part other that will be getting the codes on that day.

 

[Spirst]

Someone said they thought my avatar was a demon fetus thing at an initial glance. Then I realized...that's exactly what Mewtwo is.

I heard a fair few Melee sounds in the trailer as well.
Probably not a lot of new voice clips. I want to hear the Palutena's guidance though.
Better not be the "OMG I don't know who this is!" one.

 

[Spirst]

Those who registered both versions will get the codes and be able to download him on the 15th. Getting the codes implies being able to use him. Would be pointless to distinguish the dates otherwise.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Psystrike bugs me, what is it? A Trapping Final Smash or an actual attacking beam?

Looks like a ball of energy that gets flung out like Mario Finale and puts characters it hits into a trapped state before blowing their minds.

 

[MewtwoX825]

Probably both, at least its better than getting another transformation FS.
