How GOOD was Mewtwo ACTUALLY? - History of Mewtwo in Competitive Pokemon (Gens 1-7)

week after week there's an ominous shadow that lurks just beneath the surface of the YouTube comments a subtle imitation of the fear that plagues my mind if it doesn't exist it can't hurt me right because I know that dwelling on it will only make the eventual rival all the worse I filed it into my mental spare cabinet like a bill I haven't paid yet but on the edge of sleep when the wall holding back the roiling subconscious at big starts to flag instability it trickles through the gaps in my makeshift defences a whispers of that fear find their way to me poisoning my thoughts with the knowledge of the inevitable and then one day it actually finally wins the comment votes so Judgment Day is here now and I can't ignore it anymore Mewtwo is here in this video we'll talk about the following formats oh boy buckle in guys cuz it's a really long one there are certain memories from when we're young that act as touchstones we come back to for the rest of our lives one of those memories is a raised platform in a cave holding a solitary figure when you finally catch Mewtwo it's the culmination of an entire journey and the fact that there's probably nothing left to beat in the game doesn't mean anything because that terrifying power is more than capable of obliterating your friends it's not just that Mewtwo has no weaknesses and gentlemen although let's be honest when your worst trait is that one set you have is under 100 you're doing all right on that front it's that it takes advantage of every single stupidly broken thing in the original games to be the best psychic typing and absurd special stat access to arguably the two best moves in the game in Blizzard and amnesia Mewtwo lives up to its name of being engineered to be perfect while it's standard set consisting of the perfect fusion of those things was capable of destroying entire teams with a single boost and if you really wanted reaching 999 special after two Mewtwo did have other options what else did you expect and with static speed over v's it was free to specialise however it wanted throw in Thunderball or submission to beat water psychic types like star me and slow grow or punch through chancy and Snorlax defenses go full physical if you really want it utilizing the devastating power of a 110 attack hyper beam and speaking of that one weakness you could opt to eliminate it entirely with barrier which when paired with recover and thunder wave meant Mewtwo would stick around forever and just win through firing off psychics unless the opponent credit through its defenses substitute also deserves a special mention well it's not amazing in normal battles in Pokemon Stadium it was updated to its current status immune form bypassing another way to beat in YouTube and speaking of which that was probably the only way you were going to take down this monster there's not a single counter in the Mewtwo in Gen 1 really chancy's monsters special is the best bet but if Mewtwo is packing some mission you're dead to rights and chance he's still not going to beaten you to one-on-one it's purely aiming for a freeze and the bad news is that Mewtwo has a better boosting move and a higher critical rate so you're statistically probably going to lose that battle and this is a trend star me and slowpoke can resist Blizzard and psychic but what else are they gonna do well probably thunder wave but the only way to stop Mewtwo is to paralyze it or if you're lucky get the freeze and what's paralyzed maybe just maybe your tauros or something can take it down since otherwise and outspeeds hope you know every pokemon except for three of them and only electrode out sped youtube Jolteon and Aerodactyl were just tied with it all right so you've paralyzed Mewtwo it's somehow doesn't have an Indonesian up and your tauros is in time to win oh it used rest well it's back to full health and faster again Mewtwo is the best pokemon and Gen one bar none run it however you want it will likely win outside of power constraining armor or a second clone you likely weren't beating this thing after all it's smart enough to speak the only other Pokemon we see do that or me out then some things are best left forgotten of course Mewtwo's power came in forgetting but gens who put some form of limiter on it by toning down the raw power of amnesia the 64 point dropped to a special defense didn't help either and that wasn't all generation 2 had specifically introduced psychic type counters and darkened skill types and in a meta game full of special walls like [ __ ] and Snorlax buta wasn't quite capable of just blasting through the opposition and boosting up when he needed to what's more Mewtwo was no longer the only one lurking around Uber's with mom anymore there were new invaders into its cozy home now invaders with a hundred and fifty four special defense so Mewtwo took a page out of Snorlax book itself and most frequently ran a curse set even with just one physical move curse allowed from you to the cushion of its physical defense and make for submissions that would destroy its biggest counters the after mentioned Blissey Snorlax Tyranitar and umbria then one hole or lugia came in you blasted it with thunderbolt which still hurt pretty bad of course he got its stab psychic fire blast power against Celebi and shadow balls ability to hit bills types super effectively yeah those are all attractive but the benefit of hitting Mugen hoo heart was too good to pass up especially with Skarmory roaming around the fact that Mewtwo actually had to work to get chaos this time many had a bit more of a specific role it couldn't just come in willy-nilly and blow things to smithereens anymore instead it was a powerful late-game cleaner because of its incredible mixed attacking stats once its biggest obstacles had been cleared it was free to run ramp it again although things might go off with a few more hitches from YouTube it still didn't really have any true counters I'm Brad could try to stall it out the charm but if it took too many submissions it was toast the move submission was actually the key here without any special wall would beat it as before the best way to deal with this menace was to [ __ ] it and then eliminate it after the fact and if you didn't your face was getting rearranged or your mind was getting blown up and man can't a legendary cat thing get its space anymore gen3 saw Mewtwo's exclusive ubers Club invaded by a bunch of would-be phonies as some of them psychic types no less even a non legendary but these newbies weren't there to mess around Larios and latias had a higher effective special attack than you two after the boost from soul dude why did we ever think that item was okay and deoxys attack didn't even need the boost to dethrone muta from his position as the strongest special attacker in the game so what did Mewtwo have going for it well that depends who you were comparing it to in the case of the laddies the ability to outspeed them an attack from the physical end of the spectrum made Mewtwo not only more unpredictable but also a great check to the twins itself against the Oxus attack the disparity was pretty obvious the Oxus attack may have been able to run any type of all out attacking set under the Sun but running any sort of bulky set was out of the question enter Mewtwo whose mutations had by this point given in a broad range of gene expression that allowed for it to slot nicely into a variety of roles while deoxys attack wasn't able to make use of sets needing ample setup because of its abysmal defenses we choose 100 of 1 hp substitutes and decent bulk meant it was pretty suited for a calm mindset that destroyed any hope Blissey or deoxys defense had installing it out combine substitute and recover was such a deadly combo that Mewtwo only needed one move usually I speed since psychic wasn't a great attacking type in ubers and if you wanted more coverage you could always make setting up a bit harder but make the sweeping easier by adding in Thunderbolt or thunder over one of the support moves with this set you gain coverage on ho-oh and Kyogre as well thunder versus Thunderbolt was actually a hard decision do you want to grab the guaranteed thunder on Kyogre switches or risk a miss against a potentially sun boosted hull either way this set to get in safe it was even harder to stop now let's make it clear calm I was not a unique option in uber it's not like Mewtwo was special for running it latias lugia Blissey they all had calm mind well on the mind one thing that set me so apart however was its access to time drop substitute do that little spin Mewtwo does in melee when he taunts and suddenly every matchup against another boosting Pokemon is a winning one recovered their moves and boost up while they can but this is a Pokemon meant to be perfect on all fronts and so it's not just the special sided dominated along with the quintessential special booster Mewtwo also had access to the all-purpose physical boosts of bulk oh the primary job this set was a boosted Shadow Ball making Mewtwo a bonafide counter to opposing psychic types like lugia and the laddie and the physical investment meant beating bliss II didn't rely on beating it at its own stall game if you took brickbreaker earthquake past that it was all preference recovery to beat other psychics harder tought if you wanted to avoid status and beat walls ice b4 requisite and bait or even self-destruct which was especially devastating off of Mewtwo's 100 base attack and while choice specs and scarf weren't around yet there was no way Mewtwo wasn't making use of choice band this afforded immediate power if you could predict switches this mutant would put the hurt on what it's in your face raw destructive energy Shadow Ball for psychics earthquake to beat Tyranitar Metagross and then self-destruct to annihilate anything that dared get in the blast zone once again the last move was up to preference do you want to hit even harder on the switch with focus punch murder Blissey with Brick Break lure and then flamethrower on Skarmory your choice and finally maybe the set that most impediment mutes his adaptability stall breaker no attacking investment here this was a fully defensive set made to beat the infamous scarm bliss and notoriously strong defensive pokémon like lugia and ubers Mewtwo's gargantuan move pole great speed and decent bulk then it could easily shut down opposing stall Pokemon with Todd while whittling away with toxic and keeping itself safe with substitute or recovery as their opponent tried to constantly switch between their defensive pivots tonton wouldn't engage any hope they had of setting up letting you get another free hit as her substitute stayed unbroken it was this variety that kept Mewtwo at the top of averse this flight is nominal outclassing by other Pokemon figuring out muties move set was half the battle and so the best solutions to Mewtwo were defensive Pokemon like the Oxus defense and bliss II although bliss II did have to fear Brick Break the best removal tool for Mewtwo was banded deoxys attack which could predict a calm minor bulk up or time a freak we fire off of one-hit ko Shadow Ball but any attacking move killed it and banded ho-oh was also able to with sent anything but an exploding Mewtwo responded with Shadow Ball while the Mewtwo was only able to return fire with a possible Thunderbolt Kyogre works similarly very mostly only thunder but again the unpredictability and raw strength of Mewtwo made it an eye on countable and the risk of figuring out it's set was often all the gap in needed to win a battle if that means it was carrying thunder yeah you just lost potentially your most powerful Pokemon honestly one of the best ways to deal with it was Wobbuffet since by then you knew the set and could just wipe your hands when be done with it this was still indubitably one of the best pokemon in the game behind Groudon and Kyogre yes and sometimes even behind his fellow psycho types but still one of the scariest threats you could face even in the augurs tier and do you guys know how evolution actually takes place no not pokemon evolution actual evolution random mutations that help something survive better end up getting passed along because it can live what that means is that the hazardous condition something lives in can actually affect how it will change down the line because we taste does that fit that needs to work the best Mewtwo just keeps on mutating Jen for ubers was outright terrifying because of the introduction of even more uber Pokemon you had dark rice spreading sleep status at absurd levels they all got leveraging the most absurd typing the world had ever seen and Giratina serving as a dual spin blocker and attacker and yet Mewtwo just keeps on adapting the new move in our sphere was the reason for Mewtwo's continued position at the top of the lot with 5 speed over Darkrai meetcha was arguably the best revenge killer for arguably one of the best pokemon in the game so it's arguably pretty damn good that only applied to certain sets though beauty's unique combo of tonton and combine could actually have trouble with scarp Darkrai but the potential benefits were too good to be passed up as in the past generation this set annihilate of walls because they literally couldn't do anything after being taunted and as you might have come to expect you two straight away from stabbed in favor of better coverage usually our sphere and ice beam to handle dark ride dog Eluga Giratina the list goes on that combo was powerful and of course he could also run a more aggressive combine set utilizing life orb / leftovers that shift meant Mewtwo was able to nab important Kalos before a boost with ice beam such as requires a guard shop and Shaymin setting oh c'mon was significantly harder of course but once you did your newfound power meant all Pokemon were dust before Mewtwo especially since you'd have thunder as an coverage move that turned Kyogre one of Mewtwo's greatest adversaries into complete bait on the other end of the spectrum if you were really committed to setting up and wanted to be able to do so against more offensive threats you expected to bulk and a support option like substitute or recover for ease of play at the cost of power this allowed Mewtwo to beat revenge killers and pursuit users two of the only things that feared while simultaneously retaining the ability to beat Blissey through the use of 101 HP subs we've already talked about three distinct options and that's just the calm mindset we've still got a ton more to go you two had three attacking routes that did in this acetate setup either here Mewtwo saw fit to make the common strategies of the generation acceptable life-form choice scarf and choice specs the like firm set is the easiest to understand as it's very similar to the life warp calm mindset the main difference is the appearance of self-destruct which provided a way to defeat anything that would normally want to come in on YouTube ho-oh Blissey and Kyogre all guide to this and the fact that music would normally blow up on Kyogre meant that thunder was no longer than most desired coverage move usually fire blast was taken instead to deal with Pokemon likes is door and fortress choice scarf has to be expected made Mewtwo one of the most feared revenge killers in the game moves here were selected from the usual pool ice beam thunder flamethrower or sphere and grass 9 depending on your targets ice beam for request thunder for Kyogre grass not for grout on our sphere for dark rife all pretty self-explanatory usually however you four went at least one attacking move to hold the potential guts sinking play of tricking your scarf on to a Blissey or latias finally specs was just the LifeWorks set without up to 11 take your pick up attacking moves and let her rip anything switching it not named Blissey had to be fearful and even Blissey hated getting tricked into specs sorry did I say finally my bad we have one more trio of sets to discuss far be it for mute tsatsa 4 go around it might have specialized into it can do it all by tapping into its vast gene pool sorry move pool you two had the ability to be a fearsome wall as well will-o'-wisp reflect taut and recover and every physical attacker cursing under their breath and beat up most all Pokemon as well if you really need an attacking move it was often reflect that was dropped similarly mute suka specialize into the specially defensive end of the spectrum simply by swapping some V's around for light screen although toxic often took the place of willow this as well either way music can play the wall role surprisingly well how it could even draw both walls and then just explode on people taking on a full support roll that ape deoxys speed but brought more HP to the table so that's our trio of trio sets and here's the thing with Mewtwo well in the past it was uncountable because there was simply nothing that matched up to his terrifying perfect combination of moves that wasn't true anymore now it was just encounter well because it could always potentially have the moves to beat you but it also might not listen was the most evident threat to strong special attackers as a special wall yeah you get it but then of course Todd sets ended it and substitute sets did even better it self-destructed eliminated it outright says where I met a grouse resisted most of Mutis moves and threatened hard with bullet punch and pursuit but it could always have a fire-type move to beat them and it was faster Tyranitar also fit the bill of the pursuit abusers but boosted up Mewtwo our spheres would tear through it on the other hand to call my sets had huge issues against tanky attackers like Kyogre and holo and they can out power the defense assets as well but then again thunder post series problems to them as did self-destruct especially of coming off of Ally for respects and finally scar furs or status abusers did well unless of course you were facing a storm you tube or if it had substitute again you get the picture there was a solution to every set but even though stress did horribly against the other variants case in point dark right scarf dark ride destroyed any sort of all-out attacker but Mewtwo itself beat out dark ride with a scarf or in the case of both being non scarf it wants straight-up mutes whose biggest problem was actually that it didn't have enough move slots imagine a boost in life 4% that also had room to Taunton and substitute unstoppable but then again you too may have been around for a while but that didn't mean it wasn't a top tier threat this old cat had learned a few new tricks and it was still one of the strongest Pokemon in the entire game and if you really wanted to see something special take a look at Worlds 2010 mutes it wasn't allowed in VGC often due to its crazy power level in addition to its other fellow uber and when it has been actually allowed in BBC you typically saw stuff like Kyogre and Groudon beating it out for spots on the team anyways that is unless your Huey ha who managed to take a team using trick room Mewtwo alongside para sect of all things to make 5th place that world Huey for one speech so he could fully invest into bulk and live water spouts from Kyogre only to surprise the enemy because he ended up being faster and more powerful and it was a little bit of poetic justice that it was paired with parasite 2 back in general when people actually used to say parasite was one of the greatest threats to Mewtwo just because I had spore and a bug typing and that wasn't really true but it's synergy alongside trick room u2 was something to be believed honestly this Musil almost looks like a Gen 1 throwback blizzard and self-destruct provided so much destructive power it was reminiscent of the glory days Aaron Cybertron Zhuang told us this is probably his favorite VGC team of all time and we can see why he's been around a long time so it only makes sense he'd used the og to achieve success now luckily from you to Gen 5 gave him one more of those adaptations that needed sy straight and what an adaptation of was while mute sues all out attacking life-form set had previously been held back by its inability to beat Blissey and other special walls like Kyogre size strikes defensive targeting met Mewtwo would get you with the mental left hook right when you thought the straight was coming this was an absolutely enormous change remember how I said Mewtwo suffer from having too many moves syndrome side strike made ton and substitute obsolete because it let me to just beat special walls all on its own every all out attacking set now had the benefits that the semi defensive sets had with the old reliable combo of ores fair ice beam and calm mind and what self-destruct nerf you two would have needed a new physical move anyways honestly going for four attacking moves the fire bus was probably better than combine when you can hit everything super effectively or with your 100 base power stab move boosting isn't quite as important because you can become effectively uncountable if you really wanted to set up you might as well invest in Mewtwo's great auxilary moves and use recover to help and while a bulky combine user with side strike would have far more counters because of its loss of two covers moves it also became an even more potent late-game cleaner and could hold its own against opposing combine users especially since side strike ignored their boosts entirely getting the since successfully against another boosting mod could be checkmate side strike also only benefited Mewtwo status as a revenge killer making it one of the best in the game but the problem with using Mewtwo as a revenge killer was that you weren't using a Mew - that wasn't a revenge killer giving up the ability to switch moves was hard this was the same reason the choice specs set fell out of vogue Mewtwo was pretty good when you didn't lock it into a move in fact it was one of the best stall Pokemon in the game as well Mewtwo may not have needed taught for its attackee sets anymore but it was still perfectly capable of using it in other ways taught recover willow is still made for a deadly combo - rounded out Mewtwo has always had choices thigh strike light screen if you wanted to guard on both sides or substitute the deal with status which was absolutely its biggest weakness so to start out in the counter section and with that out away can you guess what might say next no counters so let's talk about his checks Jenna cycle is here to try and take over me to status as the best engineer legendary on the block and its ability to beat Mewtwo with a choice scarf and a download boost met Nate at least kept in check in fact things that outspend youtube were as always the best ways to beat it on that front cure and black zekrom polo Kyogre and russia ramp all choice of course were your best bets Giratina origin form could also use shadow sneak to hit Mewtwo first and Victini resisted all moves and hit hard with V create but its own middling defense has meant that switching into Mesa was a risky proposition the greatest true counter Mewtwo had was the rare defensive Arceus dark and a quick note Arceus is only making its appearance now because the only version of it available in Gen 4 was Eevee limited so it wasn't really seen much in Gen 4 but it was a frequent contender for Gen 5 meaning me to have to be wary of it Arceus darks payback was one thing what psychic did even better beating the calm mind variant of the all-out attacker set easily but it had to be on the lookout for fire blast similarly Jirachi one if Mewtwo couldn't melt its steel as in other Pokemon with the same typing many of those threats however lost the stall which dealt with set of Pokemon and physical attackers equally well but suffered against fire types and special attackers who didn't care about will OS with the advent of sigh strike Mewtwo had everything it needed not that it didn't already though I'm sure you're used to me saying this already well yeah well once again one of the best to do it all right next and if that wasn't enough they gave it a mega evolution but not one but two mega evolutions guaranteed that Mewtwo's unstable DNA had a few more tricks left in it however the unpredictability that had defined YouTube was reined in a little bit in order to gain access to either of his mega evolutions it gave up the options to go fully defensive her choice and to be honest new mega Pokemon of fairies like xerneas who had a great type matchup made those options harder to pull off so for the first time since like what Gen 2 Mewtwo only had a couple sets that you have to be really prepared for but don't let that fool you though if you guessed wrong you might be stuck in a ditch to be hard-pressed to find your way out of since you'd be facing the wrong move from Pokemon with the highest attack stats in the game so let's cover mega Mewtwo X first with an additional fighting typing low kick a move incredibly good an uber since stuff is well big became a 100 accuracy 120 power stab move coming off of a 190 base attack that should be enough to sell you on its own but X also had earthquake and ice punch for incredible coverage and stolen edge if you really wanted to kill hoho the last move slot was reserved for Mewtwo's old trick up its sleeve time guaranteed the only way to kill this thing was by brawling with it and brawling was something with a hundred and ninety attack and a hundred thirty speed might be a little risky now for special Mewtwo and yes I do say special instead of mega Mewtwo y for a reason if you were running all-out attacker Mewtwo you actually still wanted to use life form instead of its mega stone because the power ended up being better and this only happened on the special set because it was a smaller relative boost in power given Mewtwo's existing astronomical special tech and the important fighting type step that X gained the main moves on descent were size strike and Focus Blast which had replaced Horace fear as power creep continued and if you were going life orb you likely close that out with ice beam and fire blast though Shadow Ball was a good option for pesky psychic Titans of course the two moves we keep mentioning are taught and calm mind and if you used either of those you too why was the preferred choice for its extra speed and the fact that you weren't relying on blackboard for damage you've heard enough for these moves already taught betta opposing caught miners and status while combine provided sweeping power in space oh and it got insomnia meaning darker and smear girl were significantly less scary now when talking about threats you already know there's nothing guaranteed and that's especially true when you have such dramatically different terrifying powerful sets to prepare for for the special attacker set dark Arceus still did pretty well since it could come in and call mine to resist a focus blast but that still put a dent into it belt all similarly could come in on sighs dragon threaten heart but hated getting hit by low kick or ice beam mega Sableye was immune to taunt due to magic bounce and could spam recover but if mega Mewtwo y was care and combine it would boost up and win very types like xerneas and Arceus exploited mega Mewtwo X's fighting typing - hit it hard and one if something crazy like poison jab wasn't on the set and ghost types like a go slash Giratina origin form and Arceus ghosts all had to be careful on the switch but we're powerful checks because they were immune to low kick similarly bulky psycho types could wall but not threaten too much which sometimes was good enough wobbuffet in particular was a strong solution if he had figured out the set and could get off an encore and finally revenge killers and status the age-old solved in youtube if he can't beat him avoid them entirely and beat them on the switch in classic stuff and speaking of classic a few people decided to channel Huey and use muta for 2016 VGC Gary Quinn took muta to 11 place at US Nationals throwback to Huey's Groudon muta team but this time with the primal Groudon jess is on that team Mewtwo served as a great counter to many of grounds enemies such as Rick waser Kyogre and solomon's has also made use of mutes his hidden ability unnerve which allowed venus or sleep powders to bypass lung berries and other moves to ignore the type resistant berries gary didn't battle any Rhaegar variants on his way to 11 but has said himself that Mutual's matchup against common Pokemon and that team set up like Landers Gengar and crobat was one of the reasons he built the team finally Ricardo apamea took a team with Mewtwo and mega raid to win an Italian regional Mewtwo and gen 7 is almost exactly the same as Gen 6 all that matters is that there's new threats it has including Lu Nala and the KRAS mod on wings which beat up mega Mewtwo y easily if it doesn't have Shadow Ball and fires off moon Geist beams to give it a taste of its own special attacking medicine the ability shadows shield combined with its high special defense also mean they can come in easily while they're ghosts typing helps out against low kick of course opposing Shadow Ball and brutal swings are possibilities but with new to everything is the cosmic dust mean is so Gallio similarly can come in a certain variants of Mewtwo and fit the role of steel types that win as long as there's not a fire blaster Tottenham play statice Mewtwo and hitting it back a recent times marsh shadow has contributed heavily to muta as decline in ubers future the huge technician boosted shadow snakes and spectral thief which steals any combine variants boost but as always Mewtwo is incredible it may be the least incredible it has ever been and that's less because it's good and more because it takes up a mega slide which could be used by something like Lucario or Salamis which is also why it didn't appear in doubles alive it's still up there in the high use of Stachel Uber's where it's been since we first discovered it all those years ago in a cave outside Cerulean City so how good was Mewtwo actually you're kidding right I feel like I shouldn't have to say it at this point Mewtwo is the only Pokemon to be worse for every single generation and at certain points it was likely the best Pokemon in the game it's amnesia set from generation 1 is most likely the single most destructive force in Pokemon sure along the years there have been a few new threats like deoxys Kyogre xerneas whatever but Mewtwo adapted first through its sheer versatility and then in a more confined a wave with its mega evolutions now is moved to the best Pokemon ever it depends on your definition of ever mega rayquaza exists after all primal Groudon is easily the most common pokémon in ubers right now and you have to go down a bit to find Mewtwo but when you think of Pokemon when you think power adaptability intelligent play I'm gonna guess if you've got the same snarled snots in your brain that we do you think Mewtwo the fact that this video is as long as it is with only being allowed in to VGC years is a testament to that and a testament to how powerful Mewtwo is unless you play melee thanks for watching everyone and as always if you like the video you want to see more be sure to subscribe to false white gaming for more weekly Pokemon content and as I always say comment

You know, I've always been lukewarm about mewtwo, but this video makes me respect it a whole lot more.

[u/SpagettiGamer]

Did they talk about him in Smash Bros?

[u/N0V0w3ls]

For the Primals to be unseated in VGC seasons where box Legendaries are allowed, they need to give more good spread moves to other box Legendaries. What good is wasting one of your restricted slots on such an overkill Special Attacking stat that can only hit one opposing Pokemon?

[u/cehteshami]

Haha, he had to put in some work this time around! Love these videos cool to see Mewtwo discussed.

[u/cylindrical418]

Is he doing Gen 7 from now on? Or is this a special case (like Alolan Exeggutor)?

[u/[deleted]]

I feel like for something as obvious as this they could’ve just posted a clip of the scene from Mewtwo Strikes Back where he kills the scientists and it would get the message across.
