Size: 8.5/10 (Mewtwo’s overall size has increased slightly since its appearance in Smash Bros Melee, and with this increase in size comes a drastic increase in weight, making Mewtwo stand up with the heavier characters of the game. However, Mewtwo can still do high floaty jumps like in its Melee days)
Strength: 9/10 (As you might expect from a legendary pokemon, let alone the most powerful pokemon of all, Mewtwo is one of the game’s strongest characters in terms of overall force and launch power. Being the game’s clear-cut strongest pokemon, Mewtwo is also capable of semi-decent combo skills, although the combo skills of Mewtwo are less than that of Melee Mewtwo. However, while Mewtwo’s psychic power can be used to create combos, it excels at single-hit attacks with powerful knockback)
Speed: 5/10 (Mewtwo’s speed overall is very limited for a pokemon that’s known for being quite fast in the actual games, but with its overall power, it’s not really that big of an issue. Mewtwo’s range is increased overall as well, most of its attacks giving off small projectile bursts to match its psychic style)
Recovery: 8.5/10 (Mewtwo’s high floaty jump and pinpoint special recovery remain intact from its Melee days, but has been given a few extra tweaks to make it more effective. However, Mewtwo’s high floaty jumps are still slow, so it can be knocked out of the air easier than most characters on the recovery, but luckily its pinpoint teleport is a good counter against this, which is a saving grace for Mewtwo)
Uniqueness: 9/10 (Mewtwo’s psychic heavyweight powerhouse style is not like anything seen in the series to this day. While Ness can be seen as a heavy-hitting psychic character, Mewtwo’s powerful attacks are much more ruthless overall, and is twice as heavy as Ness. Mewtwo’s fighting style is sure to please old-time Mewtwo users and fans looking for a breath of fresh air in the mighty legendary’s arsenal)
