I miss that multi-hitting spin Mewtwo does when holding an item like the Beam Sword or Star Rod.

Mewtwo's training is complete.

Amusingly it looks like Mewtwo loses to Greninja match-up wise.

Greninja's Up-Smash kills him at 80% without rage, for starters. Combine that with the fact that Greninja is an extremely mobile combo beast.

I hope Mewtwo'll be good. It has some pretty damn good combos, KO power, speed, range, edgeguarding and recovery... But hopefully that's enough to compensate for its hugeness, floatiness and light weight.

Also seems like one of those characters who have trouble dealing with characters below them, which doesn't help its fragility. Using Teleport to escape combos might work, though?

Most people's first impression about Mewtwo is that he'll be around mid. He's really powerful but he can't deal with pressure very well and he dies early. He can really bring the pain once he starts lashing at the opponent though.

Compared to the other Pokémon, he's probably better than Charizard and Jigglypuff, maybe Lucario as well, but he's definitely not as good as Greninja or Pikachu.

Mewtwo does remind me a lot of his Melee days, but unlike there it feels like he's strong enough to justify his frailty.

I sure said that!

Despite the fact that they felt the need to make him even lighter in this game.

The only character lighter than Mewtwo now is Jigglypuff.

I'm sad I don't have Mewtwo.

Oh well, that's what you get for never having gotten a CN account

Is this a Jo Jo reference?

I like that Mewtwo is one of the few characters that actually faces slightly toward the camera regardless of what direction he's facing. You know, since they lied about most characters having that quality.

The ones that do are Mario, Luigi, Bowser, the Koopa Kids, Wario, Kirby, Charizard, Jigglypuff, Greninja, Duck Hunt, ROB, Pac Man, Mega Man, Sonic, Mii Brawler, and now Mewtwo.

I love Mewtwo's losing animation. He's the only character who doesn't clap. Even Bowser and Ganondorf clap, but Mewtwo doesn't. What an asshole.

@FM, regarding the Peach fights: At 8:37, I wasn't quite sure what hit you until I rewatched it. Peach's down tilt has some surprising range, it seems.

It feels so good to be playing as Mewtwo again.

Should I dub my first Classic and All Star Mewtwo runs as "Mewtwo Strikes Back"?

To be fair, most of the ones who don't do that have gameplay-impacting asymmetry to their designs, like a sword or a hammer or a non-morphable arm cannon. The only one who doesn't have that is Captain Falcon, and he's got two variants on the Show Me Ya Moves taunt to partially justify that.

I sure said that!

Tell that to Peach, Yoshi, Diddy Kong, Zelda, Shiek, Little Mac, Lucario, Olimar, Ness, and Villager.

Most of the remainder have dead-on profile stances that aren't terribly different from either angle.

Can't explain all of 'em like that, though, sorry.

The biggest offenders seem to be Captain Falcon, Shiek, Little Mac, and Olimar. I dunno, just a little bit of a pet peeve about the game.
