* Greninja speaks in PokemonSpeak in the new ''Smash'', which pretty much deconfirms the ''Origins'' versions of any Pokémon - including Mewtwo. If "relevance" and "timing" are factors, then that more popular Mewtwo would have been an alternative to this one. Cue OhCrap...

[[WMG: Continuing on both of the above, Newtwo will make a reappearance and she will be shown to be connected with Lysandre and Team Flare]]
This could [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap rescue her from the scrappy heap]], as she would then be given her own interesting and unique story with a recognized villainous team from the newest games, establishing her as more than a shallow copy of the old Mewtwo. And of course, this would tie in with the Mega Evolution specials, which already show that the writers are willing to break [[StrictlyFormula formula]] a little.

This movie turned a lot of Western fans off Mewtwo Y, so they could depict a second one in non-game ''Pokémon'' media to try and win fans over. It could be the original Mewtwo (switching between the X and Y forms like Kyurem did in [[Anime/PokemonKyuremVsTheSwordOfJustice its own movie]]), an ''Origins''-like Mewtwo, or possibly Mewtwo's Final Smash in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros for Wii U/3DS'' (provided they don't [[CreatorsPet model it after Newtwo after all]]).

* The Mega Mewtwo X/Y and Lysandre cameos in the "Strongest Mega Evolution" special lend some credence to this theory; the special (or possibly movie) would probably be part 2 of the miniseries, and seeing as it had a small amount of PanderingToTheBase for the older fans, this could happen and Team Flare could be as dark as in the games. However, remember that this is [[AnimationAgeGhetto the Pokémon anime]], and we could be just as likely to have some sort of cop-out special where ''only'' Newtwo appears, and Lysandre's plan is simply to awaken Xerneas/Yveltal to rule the world a la [[BadassDecay anime!Ghetsis]].

[[WMG: Newtwo will become a CreatorsPet]]
Not wanting to accept defeat and admit that they made a poor marketing choice in creating Mewtwotwo and handling her character the way they did, Yuyama and the rest of the anime's creative team will decide to make sure that she becomes the "go-to" depiction for Mewtwo from now on - after all, Yuyama said his goal was to create a "new image" for Mewtwo. This'll likely result in her appearing in the next ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' (thus acting as the old Mewtwo's ReplacementScrappy ''again''), and future depictions in other spinoffs and other media being based on her personality rather than the original Mewtwo. And their logic will likely be something like "today's kids will grow up with this Mewtwo, so they'll remember her for years to come and eventually she'll be more famous than the old Mewtwo, which we don't like anymore for whatever reason".

There are 3 Mewtwos]]
The first is the original Cinnabar Island one in the games, the second is the New Island one in the First Movie
and admit that the third is the one in this movie.

[[AC:Origins]]
[[WMG: The Mewtwo in the film was created because the original Mewtwo erased Team Rocket's memories.]]
Team Rocket created Mewtwo because
they made found a poor marketing choice in sample of Mew. If they had no memory of creating Mewtwotwo and handling her character the way they did, Yuyama and the rest of the anime's creative team will decide to make sure that she becomes the "go-to" depiction for Mewtwo from now on - after all, Yuyama said his goal was to create a "new image" for Mewtwo. This'll likely result in her appearing in the next ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' (thus acting as first time they'd try creating Mewtwo again and since it's ''their'' scientists (Dr. Fuji is nowhere to be found since he's dead) making the old product their Mewtwo would sound closer to Mew whom Mewtwo is based on. And since ''this'' Mewtwo never met any other clones it merely has distrust of Humans instead of outright hatred.

[[WMG: The events in ''Anime/PokemonMewtwoReturns'' did not expunge all records of
Mewtwo's ReplacementScrappy ''again''), existence.]]
Think about it: Mewtwo used his psychic powers to wipe Giovanni
and future depictions in other spinoffs pal's memory of his and other media being based Mt Quena's existence, but there's nothing saying that he wiped out whatever records of him are left. Even though a lot of what's known about him was blown apart when he escaped, Giovanni probably has lots of super-secure files on her personality rather than the original Mewtwo. And their logic will likely be something like "today's kids will grow up with this Mewtwo, so they'll Giovanni and his Executives are the only ones who had files on Mewtwo. While Giovanni can't remember her for years to come the password and eventually she'll be more famous than place, the old Mewtwo, which we don't like anymore for whatever reason".
importance of the Mewtwo project(to the point that his own mother was part of it) would leave a colossal, mutant feline-shaped hole in the records. Having scientists brilliant enough to make Mewtwo in the first place find out what's going on, Giovanni rediscovered Mewtwo's existence. The reason Giovanni isn't going after Mewtwo again is because he's GenreSavvy to wait it out and ensure Mewtwo is in his command, especially now that he can't use his [[MoralityPet morality clones]] against Mewtwo. Unknown to Giovanni, Team Plasma managed to hijack this information and use it to create the Mewtwo in the 16th movie.



If a guess could be hazarded as to how, they probably hustled it & went there while Giovanni was conspiring with & decieving Mewtwo elsewhere, and may have discovered some sort of DNA leavings either within Mewtwo's tube or where Mewtwo was standing...somehow. Or maybe one of the computers wasn't completely destroyed. The Mew screen may even be extra DNA they found in the strand.

The thought just occured to me that there would be little time to hear out fan reaction and adjust the dub script accordingly.


Because this movie shows that the writers (or the director, more specifically) can say "screw continuity" and expect to get away with it if they feel like it, and as such they would likely rather have a third Mewtwo beause they think it would be better that way. Oh, and don't expect much of an explanation for a third one's origin, either.

Team Rocket created Mewtwo because they found a sample of Mew. If they had no memory of creating Mewtwo the first time they'd try creating Mewtwo again and since it's ''their'' scientists(Dr. Fuji is nowhere to be found since he's dead) making the product their Mewtwo would sound closer to Mew whom Mewtwo is based on. And since ''this'' Mewtwo never met any other clones it merely has distrust of Humans instead of outright hatred.

[[WMG: Alternatively, another Mewtwo will appear to showcase [[spoiler:Mega Mewtwo X]]]]
Because this movie shows that the writers (or the director, more specifically) can say "screw continuity" and expect to get away with it if they feel like it, and as such they would likely rather have a third Mewtwo beause they think it would be better that way. Oh, and don't expect much of an explanation for a third one's origin, either.

Something just occurred me after Mewtwo\'s new reveal.

Added DiffLines:

[[WMG: One distinguishing factor: the old Mewtwo's Ability was Pressure, while the new Mewtwo's Ability is Unnerve.]]
The event distribution says it all.
[[WMG: When the movie is dubbed, the translators will try and fix the mistake made in the original.]]
By retconning [[ReplacementScrappy Newtwo]] into the one from the first movie.
[[WMG: The Mewtwo in this movie is cloned from [[Anime/PokemonLucarioAndTheMysteryOfMew the Mew from Movie 8.]]]]
What fans tend to forget is that a second ''Mew'' was already introduced into the anime's canon; therefore, it's possible that the new Mewtwo is cloned from it rather than Movie 1's Mew or a generic Mew that merely exists for the backstory.
[[WMG: Anime [[VideoGame/PokemonXandY Team Flare]] created Mewtwotwo.]]
How anyone officially got the data, we may never know, but Team Flare is said to do what they do for money, and even with [[spoiler: what Mewtwo did at the end of the first movie]], the fact remains that there was an explosion on New Island.

If a guess could be hazarded as to how, they probably hustled it & went there while Giovanni was conspiring with & decieving Mewtwo elsewhere, and may have discovered some sort of DNA leavings either within Mewtwo's tube or where Mewtwo was standing...somehow. Or maybe one of the computers wasn't completely destroyed. The Mew screen may even be extra DNA they found in the strand.
[[WMG: Mewtwo was originally planned to be the original, but the writers changed it [[MerchandiseDriven to sell more Mewtwo toys to little girls]].]]
Notice how the event Mewtwo associated with this movie has Hurricane, a move most likely based on the first movie rather than this one. It's quite likely that the writers, looking to shove as much merchandise as possible, decided that Genesect was enough for little boys and that there weren't enough cute girly Pokémon in the movie to appeal to little girls, so they decided to make Mewtwo into one. And as for why she has nothing to do with the old Mewtwo, [[ViewersAreMorons it's all part]] [[AnimationAgeGhetto of the same package]].

[[WMG: The Mewtwo in the film was created because the original Mewtwo erased Team Rocket's memories.]]
