Sorry if this is in the wrong forum. If it is, please move it to the correct forum.
I just wanted to point out to people that Mewtwo is not deconfirmed.
The whole deconfirmation rumour can only be done in a few ways.
1) Sakurai says the character is not in the game.
2) The character is made into an Assist Trophy.
No appearing on the sticker list is not deconfirmation. For all we know, this merely means Mewtwo is a villain and villains are not playable in SSE (at least not at that point). Considering Mewtwo was given the role of villain in Melee (judging by the company he keeps), this would not be at all surprising.
The 35-character rumour is not proof of his absence, either. That is a rumour until first-hand evidence arises to prove it is true.
I don't know why people are even thinking he has been cut. I believe it started with the rumours that Ness, then Roy and Marth had been cut, giving the idea that characters with unique movesets were being culled. Seeing as how Ness has been confirmed playable (and most likely either Marth of Roy are coming back, too), this holds no weight in saying Mewtwo is gone.
Finally, Mewtwo and Lucario share a vaguely humanoid appearance. That is really all they have in common. End of story.
P.S. - I am not saying Mewtwo is in, merely stating there is no solid reason to assume he is OUT.
