History Anime / PokemonExtremeSpeedGenesectMewtwoAwakens

When Mewtwo was announced for this newest movie, many people believed that we would be seeing a continuation of the original Mewtwo's story. However, it soon became clear that this was merely an {{Expy}} of the original Mewtwo with a more feminine voice. Naturally, this has stirred up a lot of controversy among the fanbase, with the [[ArtistDisillusionment writers' own reactions to the debacle]] not helping matters.

* CheerfulChild: The Douse Drive Genesect is apparently this... which can come off as kind of odd since it's ''Genesect''.

''[=ExtremeSpeed=] Genesect: Mewtwo Awakens'' is the 16th movie entry in the ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' franchise. It marks the anime debut of the legendary Pokémon Genesect as well as Mewtwo's new Forme introduced in ''VideoGame/PokemonXAndY''. The movie follows Ash, Iris, Cilan, and their Pokémon as they arrive in New Tork City, which is being attacked by the Genesect Army, a group of five Genesect led by a Shiny one known as the Red Genesect. The only one who can stop them is Mewtwo, who notes that the Genesect are made by humans, just like it was.

The film is set to be released in Japan on July 13th, 2013.

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: The Red Genesect can bend the other Genesect to his will and force them to do his bidding. This becomes a recurring plot point with the Douse Drive Genesect, who's pulled a [[HeelFaceTurn]] and is traveling around with Ash and co.

* [[AlphaBitch Alpha Bug]]: The Red Genesect is pretty mean to anyone who isn't on its side... even when "anyone" includes one of its own kind, like [[HeelFaceTurn the Douse Drive Genesect]].

* CheerfulChild: The Douse Drive Genesect, sort of... which can come off as kind of odd since it's ''Genesect''.

* Jerkass: The Red Genesect, apparently. See Alpha Bug above.

* UniquenessDecay: Prior to this movie, Mewtwo was portrayed as a unique specimen with a unique personality; this movie introduces a second Mewtwo into the anime's canon, and essentially turns Mewtwo from a one-of-a-kind character into just another Pokémon species.

The film is set to be released in Japan on July 13th, 2013.
