Mewtwo Strikes Back in Super Smash Bros.

One of the iconic fighters Pokémon fighters of Super Smash Bros. Melee will be returning for the Wii U/3DS version of SSB next year. Players who register both versions will get Mewtwo as a free DLC character starting spring of 2015.

 

Happy that we can “Settle it in Smash!” with Mewtwo? I am!

  1. I wish I could get Mewtwo…
    Sadly, what is the point of getting Smash U when I don’t have a Wii U? Just to get Mewtwo?

  2. If like laughing at human stupidity, this guy from my school(he’s a xbox fanboy) believes nintendo brain-washes people to buy there stuff and turn them into nerds and emos.

  3. Sweet! A huge icon like Mewtwo finally returns. I already own Smash Bros. on the 3DS. I guess the Wii U one is left. Mewtwo’s 3D Model is looking good. Hopefully, he’s not a clone of Lucario.

    I’m guessing his Final Smash would be a Mega Evolution. Mega Mewtwo Y (Better Ranged Attacks; 3DS) and Mega Mewtwo X (Better Offensive Attacks; Wii U).

  4. This is the bad thing about collecting 12 boxes of Eggs
    If you find the shiny early you waste a lot of time hatching the rest

  5. Sadly, I’m already bored with Smash. Plus with ORAS coming out, I probably won’t even play Smash ’til Spring anyways.

  6. I wonder…
    If a Regional Pokedex contains a list of Pokémon within a region, shouldn’t the National Pokdex contains a list of Pokémon within a nation?
    Therefore: Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh belong to a National Pokedex (Japan, or a supposed Pokémon version of Japan)
    And Unova and Kalos are their own National/Regional Dexes.
    Thoughts?

  7. Well, I have a while to connect my Nintendo Network Id with my eshop account, but I’m excited to get a new smash character! Quick question… The reson I have to link my accounts is because I downloaded the 3ds version…yet have no idea how to get the pin number for registering it. Anyone know?

  8. So, apparently the Tower of Smash leak may have some truth to it. Lots of stuff from it confirmed and the only thing against the leak is Ridley not being playable DLC as well as Event Matches coming back. They could of made that part up to help possibly give the leak some doubt to get Nintendo off their backs…

  9. Oh, and Maple’s article was great, interesting seeing his team (again but still) and how much OU he used on it.
    But seriously, I didn’t watch the videos, but I read the descriptions of battle, and it all seemed great.

  10. Lately I’ve been putting theme songs into google translate, translating them into different languages, then back to english, and the results have been fantastic:

    “Now this is a story about how

    My life has spilled
    I want to take a minute
    Just sit there
    I’ll tell you how he became the prince of a town called Bel- Air

    Born and raised in West Philadelphia ,
    The land is where I spent most of my days
    Cold MAXIN ” relaxin ‘ all cool
    And all shootin some b ball outside of the school
    When two players who are not good
    Started to hurt my home district
    I had a little battle , I was terrified , and my mother
    She said : ” Go with your aunt and uncle in Bel Air. ”

    Oh boy
    Also, if you claim to think mewtwo in smash was going to happen, I actually made a list of people who called.
    So don’t even I know if you’re bein a lying ho

  11. Well, one thing’s for certain. I hope they include some of the seriously amazing Black and White music in Smash. Opelucid City… ;O

    Reply
  12. I find it very interesting how Battle Frontier has it’s music programmed yet no location data in the game or names of the Frontier Brains. Same with Abandoned Ship and I think the Trick House. But both of those two (Trick House and Abandoned Ship) are obviously in the game. Apparently, some Scientist in the demo mentioned the Scanner and Sea Mauville in the same sentence, making some people think the Abandoned Ship was renamed “Sea Mauville”. Yeah. No. It’s nowhere near it either. I also heard about a Food Court in Mauville from the demo. Apparently, it could be very similar to the stadiums from Nimbasa City! They mentioned battling. Those matches with the Street Thugs could be at the Food Court. Seems to me like Mauville is taking on the role of Lumiose and Castelia Cities from the newer games in a way.

    Reply
  13. I wonder what this Sea Mauville area is about? It says it’s a Hoenn protected area according to this Veteran NPC. It can’t be the Abandoned Ship. The Scientist who said he was looking for the Scanner in Sea Mauville must of been mistaken. Or it could of been a translation error. Lol. (Refresh for image by the way).

  14. So excited to have these games in hand come November! Demo isn’t even the meat of the details. Sea Mauville isn’t New Mauville, that name is in the data as well. Like oh my god! The hype is coming back again! I saw Tate and Liza in the demo too. They look even more awesome in person! Can’t wait to see the rest of the Gym Leaders and Elite Four in person! 😀

    Reply
  15. The hype left for me yesterday, as some of you may remember. I had a fit of rage on here because PLDH.net didn’t believe Gym Leader rematches were coming back. They don’t have all the fucking answers. I trust them. They are a good site. But I let their opinion turn into a fact and it took advantage of me. It’s not the final game!

    Reply
    • Why would you have a fit over not being able to rematch gym leaders? Most of us will be spending our time MMing or competitively battling. Gym rematches are the least of my concerns.

      Reply
      • I’m not really competitive. But you’re honestly right. I’ll probably either be spending my time doing PokeNav Plus Rematches, the Battle Frontier/Resort, Elite Four and Wally Rematches, Super Training, Aime, and Secret Bases. This old sailor has a soft manly spot when it comes to Aime. Lol.

        Reply
  16. I have a theory:
    To get this secret part of the demo, you need to speak to every NPC available in ORAS at least once.
    I have yet to meet Wattson, Aarune and Lisia, which is probably why I haven’t gotten it yet.

    Reply
  17. I think I know why Chico think it’s fake. Raichu is in the images that Dicie showed in a link and Raichu isn’t in the demo. Is that why? If so, I guess it’s a reason. And everyone has a right to believe what they believe in. But seriously, I don’t know who would be capable of faking a video. Unless that person is Hoopa’s Satan form? o.O

    Reply
  18. I’m calling it now.
    In 4 hours Chico will come and say that he had the secret thing the whole time and was kidding.
    He did the same thing to me a few months back, where he said he had CoroCoro leaks and I kept begging him to give them to me and then 4 hours later he confirmed he was lying.

  19. EDIT: I meant console, NOT handheld.

    I really hate to say it, but Sakurai and Nintendo should honestly stick to making the Smash Bros. series for only the console systems. I thought that the 3DS version was gonna water down the Wii U version but after today’s Direct, I was reassured that it won’t be doing that. Event Matches, Special Smashes, Stage Builder, My Music, and most of those goodies from Brawl and Melee are back as well as several new features. The 3DS version kinda sucks now and looks unfinished compared to the major superiority that is now Super Smash Bros. Wii U. I am so excited for all of those features to come back and to get Smash Bros. Wii U in my hands this November! And Mewtwo for character DLC proves that the 3DS version can muster up a tiny bit more content, at least for that. And that more DLC could possibly be on the way.

    Reply
  20. While I would love for 8 player matches to be online, It’s already super laggy enough as is with the 3DS online and for the Direct on the Wii U version, they recommend that you have a stable connection. Probably be just as laggy as Brawl if not, a little worse than that. A lot of people tend to blame Nintendo for their servers being shit when it’s the person on the other end whose connection is often shit. Sometimes, I get times where the matches go flawless with little to no lag. Others, I want to quit and end up getting banned for 9 minutes! How is that fair by the way? They know people have bad internet connections. Why get banned for it temporarily? It really does not make any sense to me.

  21. alright raise your hand if your going to abuse the hell out of the stage builder and Photo paint and draw phallic and graphic pics?
    Come on i know you people, don’t lie

  22. Mewtwo’s model I must say is looking really good for Smash 4 (Refresh for image). I wonder what moves it will have to set it apart even more from Lucario? Or if it will just dissapoint us and be a semiclone and exactly like Melee as Dr. Mario was in SSB4.

    Reply
    • I’m more concerned with his Moves
      like Moves that have to be there
      B- Shadow Ball
      Up B- Teleport
      then the rest they could dazzle up
      but now comes something heavy the Final Smash we have 3 possible FSs
      Mega Mewtwo X similar to Wario Man or Giga Bowser
      Mega Mewtwo Y Similar to Rocket barrel barrage, Super Sonic, or Super Dragon
      or Psystrike which he causes a supernova burst of psychic energy

      Reply
    • Mewtwo’s Moves are very different than Lucario

      The only similarity is the Shadow Ball/ Aura Sphere
      Most People forgot Mewtwo Side B (Where he flips you) and Down Be (Makes you dizzy)

  23. well i’m gonna go turn in fo the night
    i’ll see y’all in the morning but another Oras question
    Lets face facts we’re all veterans here and most of us want to beat the game and start a new chapter in their competitive circuit
    so how long do you think i’ll take you to beat the game?
    either beat it less then 2 days or space it out?

    Reply
  24. guys, so how many missions or quests does the iras game have because its getting boring and i can’t seem to do nothing but battle the same trainers again

    Reply
  25. To trade a Pokemon to your new game for your team would be considered cheating right? Would using the Synchronize ability to capture your team members with the right nature be considered cheating as well?

  26. Going to bed now! Nice conversations with everyone tonight! Great debate
    around ORAS and SSB4. Can not wait get my hands on both ORAS and Smash
    Bros. Wii U! Enjoy the rest of your day/evening (whatever time it may be
    for you)! 😀

    Also, thanks to Earthen, I’ve decided my 6th and final team member for Alpha Sapphire! My team: Sceptile, Altaria, Medicham, Aggron, Sharpedo, and Camerupt.

    • Aww i’m touched
      since this’ll have the updated Movesets the earliest Numel will know Magnitude and if above level 15 Flame Burst which has a base dam of 70

      Reply
      • I will alternate my main Mega Evolutions between Altaria, Sharpedo, and Camerupt. And sometimes Medicham. It’s tough having an entire team that can Mega Evolve and the three of which I mentioned (Altaria, Sharpedo, and Camerupt) get excellent stat boosts when they undergo Mega Evolution! This is not a competitive team per say but I will use it for fun a lot. I take great pride in my in-game team.

        Reply
      • I know right? Tough decisions ahead. Lots of good Hoenn Pokemon are capable of it now. Gonna alternate between Sharpedo, Camerupt, and Altaria as my Mega Evolutions and use Medicham sometimes too. I never really used a Mega Evolution before other than Gengar to test the concept out in X and Y.

  27. Trying to design a final boss… The phases are all based on nightmares/night terrors/Sleep Paralysis, fear and just anything realated to nightmares. One of the stages is based on fear, whats scarier?
    Snake/Spider hybrid
    Snake/Centipede hybrid?

  28. Here’s my opinion on Smash 3DS and Smash Wii U:

    If I’m out, I’ll probably be playing Smash 3DS a lot more than the Wii U version.
    If I’m at home, im going to use my 3DS as a wii u controller.

  30. Announcements(mostly 2s4u):
    Pokemoner119 and MenacingCascoon, your battle is due today.

    Star Bits and King Phoenix, your battle is due today.

    FrostByte and Chaos, your battle is due today.

    If battling has not started by 12:00AM CST, me or moving will kick as we see fit.

    Also, some of you may have noticed that at some point yesterday that a sentence was removed from Maple’s team report article.This was because we permitted vulgar language; a mistake. We apologize for any of you who felt upset or concerned. Thank you.

  31. So it seems this coro coro is going to be the last before ORAS. It’s now or never for Mega molitic.(fingers crossed for mega flygon!)
