Mewtwo (Japanese: ミュウツー Mewtwo) is a Psychic-type Legendary Pokémon who was cloned from a Mew.
The story of Mewtwo is chronicled in the radio drama The Birth of Mewtwo, its animated counterpart The Uncut Story of Mewtwo's Origin, the movie Mewtwo Strikes Back, the television special Mewtwo Returns, and the remake movie Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution. It made brief appearances in the anime, notably in The Battle of the Badge, when Giovanni used it to defeat Gary Oak; and in Showdown at the Po-ké Corral, where it escaped from Team Rocket HQ, a scene also chronicled in Mewtwo Strikes Back and Mewtwo Returns.
In the anime
History
Original series
Kanto
Approximately twenty years ago, Team Rocket discovered that a Mew was living in Guyana. Many years later, under the orders of the new boss Giovanni, an expedition team of Team Rocket scientists traveled to the area to search for a fossil of Mew, and succeeded in finding an eyelash belonging to it. Giovanni hired Dr. Fuji to clone Mew for him and create the most powerful Pokémon in existence. Fuji agreed, but only in order to continue his research into cloning his deceased daughter, Amber.
One month after the discovery of the eyelash, Mewtwo was successfully created and stored at New Island. At this point, it was still not fully grown and lived in a large tank beside others that contained Bulbasaurtwo, Squirtletwo, Charmandertwo, and Ambertwo. Fuji and the other scientists thought that Mewtwo was unconscious inside its tube, but it was able to communicate telepathically with Ambertwo and the other clones. However, because the cloning process requires a strong life force, all four other clones died. Before this, Mew was revealed to have an immortal life force, explaining why Mew's DNA sample made a successful clone in Mewtwo.
Over the years, Mewtwo matured and grew confused over its origin and place in the world. After resolving to figure out where it belongs, Mewtwo broke out of its tank, with Mewtwo exchanging some words with its creators while asking about the nature of its existence and its destiny. The Team Rocket scientists were happy that they had succeeded in creating the most powerful Pokémon in the world, but that joy turned to horror once Mewtwo retaliated. Realizing that it was just an experiment of mankind, Mewtwo unleashed its fury upon them. Despite the efforts of the security systems that were designed to control it, Mewtwo destroyed the laboratory on New Island and all of the scientists in it.
Immediately thereafter, Giovanni found Mewtwo and convinced it to help with Team Rocket's goal of controlling the world. Mewtwo's power was focused as well as restrained by a robotic suit of armor as it performed tasks, such as battling for Giovanni in the Viridian Gym and helping Team Rocket capture Pokémon. At one point, Giovanni, after temporarily (at the time) abdicating the Viridian Gym to Jessie James and Meowth, utilized Mewtwo for what was presumably a very serious matter. Mewtwo eventually became tired of being used by Giovanni. It developed a strong hatred for humans and felt that they were weak and selfish beings who were only interested in power and wealth; it also despised the Pokémon who served humans. Mewtwo escaped from Giovanni, destroying Team Rocket headquarters in the process (something that the Team Rocket trio witnessed, ironically around the time they themselves considered defecting from Team Rocket), and relocated to its birthplace on New Island and built a castle there.
Mewtwo then issued a challenge to several strong Pokémon Trainers, including Ash Ketchum. It used its powers to create a storm that would serve as a test to see who could make it to the island. Only a handful of Trainers decided to brave the storm and arrive, including Ash and his friends. Upon revealing itself, Mewtwo challenged the Trainers with its clone Pokémon—Venusaur, Blastoise, and Charizard—to prove its superiority to human Trainers and the superiority of cloned Pokémon in comparison to trained Pokémon. To do this, Mewtwo used a variation of the Poké Balls used by Trainers. Once caught in the Balls, the Trainers' Pokémon were cloned in a downstairs laboratory. However, before Mewtwo could defeat the Trainers and move out into the world, Mew appeared. Mew and Mewtwo fought at length, ceasing only when Ash—exasperated over the drawn-out and fruitless battling—ran into the fray and was caught in their crossfire, which turned his body to stone. After Ash was revived by the tears of the nearby Pokémon, clone and original alike, Mewtwo experienced a change of heart and no longer sought to conquer the world. Mewtwo reasoned that it would be best if no one remembered the events that had transpired, so it erased the memories of all the people and Pokémon and transported everyone but Team Rocket back to the mainland. Mewtwo and Mew left New Island with the cloned Pokémon to seek a proper place for themselves.
Johto
Soon afterwards, Mewtwo and the clones migrated to Johto and eventually settled on Mount Quena. To prevent them from having any encounters with humans, Mewtwo frequently used severe storms to make the mountain inaccessible. One day, a bus full of people was nearly knocked off the road, so Mewtwo decided to use its telekinesis to right the bus and prevent an accident. After its actions were questioned, it explained to its fellow clones that a bus crash would attract even more humans. However, Meowthtwo believed that the act may have also been due to a growing soft spot for humanity, which Mewtwo vehemently denied.
After a few years, Giovanni found Mewtwo's hiding place using one of Team Rocket's satellites and began a plan to capture it once again. However, this plan was foiled when Mewtwo again met with Ash, who did not remember their previous encounter. Giovanni restrained Mewtwo, but Ash and his friends helped it to escape and defeat Giovanni. At the end of the ordeal, Mewtwo erased Giovanni and his soldiers' memories and decided to move throughout the world, searching for the meaning of its life.
Unknown city
In the epilogue to Mewtwo Returns and in some openings and movie previews, Mewtwo has been seen wearing a plain brown cape and moving across rooftops at night.
Pokémon Journeys: The Series
Mewtwo reappeared in JN046, where it was living on the isolated Cero Island alongside a group of abused and abandoned wild Pokémon it was protecting. Ash and Goh had been given intel that there were Mew sightings in the area and traveled to the deserted island by ship in hopes of encountering the elusive Pokémon that Goh had been hoping to capture since before his journey even began. The two were unsuccessful in finding Mew(two) at first, but when they fell off a waterfall, it apparently saved them from drowning while they were unconscious. When they came to, it appeared before them, questioning their presence in its remote sanctuary. Ash appeared to recognize Mewtwo from his previous encounters with the species, while Mewtwo seemed to have no recollection of the young trainer, it merely treated him as it would any other human, Goh, on the other hand, seemed to have a vague idea of what he was looking and of how Mewtwo was speaking to them (telepathically). They stated their business, which led Mewtwo to ask why they were pursuing Mew, to which Goh stated that he wanted to catch every single Pokémon, as it would help him to better understand them, and Mew, the ancestor of all Pokémon, represented the pinnacle of his goal. Ash on the other hand, knew Mewtwo was genetically engineered to be the strongest Pokémon ever, and that if he defeated it in combat, it would be a huge step forward on the road to becoming a Pokemon Master. Goh, realizing Mewtwo was, indeed, a Pokemon, decided to make it his own. Mewtwo was surprised that they would challenge it despite it warning them of its strength, but it agreed to a battle. Ash and Goh launched a head-on assault with Pikachu and Cinderace but Mewtwo easily deflected all their attacks, even when they struck together. After badly damaging Pikachu with a Shadow Ball, Ash opted to use Lucario instead. Again, Mewtwo effortlessly used it’s Psychic powers to nullify everything the two threw at it. After a few more failed exchanges, Ash had Lucario launch a ring of Aura Spheres while using Double Team from above while Goh had Cinderace kick a massive, aerial, Pyro Ball at it in the center of the Aura Spheres, resulting in a massive explosion. When the smoke cleared, Mewtwo stood still, unfazed, having shielded itself with Barrier. It then sent one, final, massive Shadow Ball hurtling at its aggressors, bringing them to their knees. Mewtwo hovered over its defeated adversaries and acknowledged their strength and potential, but that they also had a long way to go to fulfill the dreams they’d vehemently spoken of earlier. It then departed alongside the Pokemon it had been taking care of and teleported them back to Cerise Laboratory, but left their memories of the event intact.
Personality and characteristics
Throughout the course of the first movie, Mewtwo viewed all humans as its enemy, as Team Rocket's boss Giovanni would usually rely on it for his evil deeds, and the scientists strongly implied they were more pleased with the project being a success than its actual worth as a living being. However, ever since Ash was petrified by the attacks of both Mewtwo and Mew, Mewtwo had a change of heart and did everything to make sure that no one remembered what happened.
Its personality and motives beyond its initial misanthropy were largely different between the Japanese version and the English dub of the original movie. In the former, Mewtwo was insecure about its place in the world largely due to its status as a clone, and it preferred having a more direct confrontation between humanity and naturally-born Pokémon as revenge via its own cloned Pokémon, with the hurricane being more of a means to an end in bringing about this confrontation. In the latter, Mewtwo is significantly more confident in his status as stronger than any known Pokémon in existence, including its template, and it fully intended to destroy the entire world via hurricane as revenge against humanity. Its characterization in the dub for the remake is much closer to that seen in the Japanese version.
It had calmed down considerably since the events in Kanto, and Mewtwo had grown into a guardian figure for its fellow clones. While it still questioned its place in the world, it felt responsible for its clones and was willing to sacrifice itself in order to keep them safe from harm. While still cautious about humans, it was also willing to save them if needs be, such as when he used his Psychic powers to save a busload of tourists; in the Japanese version, it conceded to Meowth-two's speculation that it did this due to having some care for the well-being of the humans (although it was mostly out of pragmatism due to wanting to avoid the risk of being discovered by news choppers). Its view on humanity was further changed as Ash helped Mewtwo to Purity Spring, Ash claiming that no one needs a reason to help someone. Mewtwo's outlook on life was further influenced by how the spring affected it, as if the waters had the same restoring effect on it as they did on other Pokémon, then it concluded that the world was its rightful place as well.
After the military operation on Mount Quena came to a head, Mewtwo had initially contemplated on erasing the memories of everyone involved. However, it took Meowth's speech into consideration, as erasing their memories would prevent the clones from learning about their past, and forgetting would not change the fact that things happen. Mewtwo decided to only erase the memories of Team Rocket—excluding Jessie, James, and Meowth—and departed.

In the manga
In the movie adaptations
Mewtwo appears in the manga adaptations of the first movie and its remake. Although his overall role in the first movie's manga adaptation was the same, he notably had a much different backstory.[1] In this adaptation, Mewtwo looked up to Dr. Fuji as a father and ended up reluctantly destroying the lab, Fuji included, at the latter's request, in order to deny Giovanni's interest of mass-producing Mewtwo as weapons, an action that Mewtwo was still haunted by in the present day. He also had a CoroCoro cup competition set up to arrange for various Trainers to meet him instead of simply supplying them with invitations.
In the manga adaptation of the remake, Mewtwo's role was the same as the movie.

Trivia
- One of Mewtwo's moves in Mewtwo Strikes Back, Shadow Ball, had not yet been introduced in the games at the time.
- The city that Mewtwo overlooks at the end of Mewtwo Returns resembles New York City. Structures similar to the Chrysler Building and MetLife Building can be seen in the distance. The narrator refers to it as "a faraway city".
- Incidentally, the setting of Genesect and the Legend Awakened, a later movie starring a different Mewtwo, would be directly based upon New York City.
- Mewtwo had a passing mention in The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon. When the Mirage Mewtwo was created, the Mirage Master claimed, "This is not the same Mewtwo that you're all familiar with."
- Some elements revolving around Mewtwo are referenced in the FireRed & LeafGreen arc of the Pokémon Adventures manga:
- After leaving Blaine, Mewtwo is revealed to have gained the ability to talk via telepathy.
- Mewtwo's robotic suit from Mewtwo Strikes Back appears, but instead of being used to focus Mewtwo's powers, Giovanni uses the suit, called the "M2 Bind", to confine Mewtwo and gradually sap away its strength.
- Mewtwo reveals that it was cloned from Mew's eyelash.
- Mewtwo teleported Ash and friends to the place they’d departed from to meet it multiple times even though it should have had no idea of where that location was.
