DISCLAIMERS ON FORMATS COVERED:
Notice I said POPULAR formats, meaning a format where there is a significant amount of people who compete in it for tournaments and so on and so forth. Now Popular does not mean official even though two of the formats I will be covering were official formats being Japan Nintendo Cup and VGC, but it is an indicator of what a good portion of competitive players thought was “optimal” at the time. Also sometimes the Pokemon Battle Historia doesn't provide enough information to talk about certain Pokemon so I add Smogon analysis to make sense of it. This is pretty rare though.
To the people asking why I don't cover Smogon Singles for Gens 1 and 2: It wouldn't really be a history video if I covered those because online Smogon gen 1 meta to my knowledge wasn't actually played until late 2000s. I wanted to cover tournaments/competitive battling that was actually played during the early years of Pokemon (late 90s).
To the people asking why I cover Smogon at all for singles: To my knowledge, Smogon was the most popular format for Gens 3-5 and held a number of tournaments throughout the years. As for Gen 6, I am not covering Battle Spot Singles because there is more information and explanations about sets being used relative to their own meta on Smogon. In other words, there are few written analyses about Battle Spot Pokemon besides the Top tiers and I would like to avoid theorycrafting because it may have a hint of bias (though I theorycraft if I REALLY couldn't find information on a certain Pokemon). The keyword here is explanations. Though I did find statistics of most Pokemon used and most moves used, there wasn't really any explanations on why. Also the few Pokemon I did find analysis of for Top Tier Battle Spot Singles had very similar move sets to the Smogon OU sets anyway.
For the record, I do not care what rules or formats people play their battles by nor am I saying these formats are the only formats that should be played. The way you play Pokemon is between you and your opponent and I will not fault you for using evasion or whatever, I just like examining popular tournament formats.

Technically Mewtwo had a 50% win rate in gen 1 ubers, because it had a 100% use rate.
@Rainbow Rattle Yes,that was their point.
@Anime-bob SquarePants Dude, it WAS their point Lmao. Literally the entire point was “Mewtwo has a 50% win rate because 100% of people used Mewtwo”

Every pokemon game
Still funny tho
It’s strange how the most satisfying and powerful-feeling Pokémon feels utterly pathetic when it transitions into another game. I’m not saying it’s the worst, it just feels like one of the worst.
@@birbo1486 he's beat out by PIKACHU, FOR GOD'S SAKE. *PIKACHU.* Mewtwo's thermonuclear special attack did NOT transition well to Smash.
It’s pretty sad how bad mewtwo is in melee considering it’s lightning fast by gen 1 standards, much faster than pikachu in fact. Sadly for boo boo balance reasons they basically gave us armored mewtwo with how slow/weak he is.
@@pablojams5152 at least its not terrible in ultimate
Unless you play Melee :(
2 months late
that made me so fucking sad
And why would I ever do that?
OOF
In Smash 4 thet gave him justice. Now being literally the best playable pokemon in the game
This is like listening to sports talk I actually understand and care about.

Hell yeah
@@walterbrown2425 hell yeah
Psycho Lol hell yeah

"Alright so you've paralyzed Mewtwo, it somehow doesn't have an Amnesia up, and your Tauros is in. Time to win!
Oh. It used Rest"
That made me chuckle
Yes you can imagine the salt lvls. Being over 9,000 after that.😂😎
Who uses Tauros in RBY Ubers?
Most people? It's actually pretty common from what I've seen.
Jane Hrahan Really?
Im surprised it used it gets knocked out by Mewtwo quick and with all the other Amensia Users running too.
Im guessing it used as an Early Game Wallbreaker
@@bryanc1772 if you have seen any of the gen 1 Pokémon videos of this channel, Tauros is usually brought into as one of the most powerful Pokémon in those games
"Mewtwo gained Nasty Plot"
That honestly sounds like Gen 1 Mewtwo but with less steps
more steps*
same amount of steps*
Same amount of steps but less boosts*
No bc if he wants to get +2 spdef and +2 spatt he nedded to use amnesia.
2 steps= 1step * 2
@@HardGuess using nasty plot in the first turn and then amnesia on the next one is the same as using 2 consecutive calm minds, so not much has changed except for being able to choose your boost
I love how he talks about this being a really long one, and 2 years later it's shorter than the Mr Mime video
Remake is inevitable
@@GoldRichness I prefer this one where he's reading from a script for 25 minutes straight & there's epic music in the background. 1 hour where you clearly hear the gap between recordings isn't going to sound as good
@@shawnli4746 "clearly" i have two braincells, nothing is clear to me, and also i have short-term memory, i really don't mind things like: sudden cuts, "choppy" editing, bad audio (as long ad it isn't too bad) i'd love a remake
Did you mean Mr dad
And then Charizard came along...
Note for anybody who doesn't understand why 101 HP Substitutes enable Mewtwo to beat Blissey:
Blissey's most common attacking move is Seismic Toss, which, at level 100, does exactly 100 damage. As such, a 101 HP Substitute means it needs to Toss twice to break one of Mewtwo's Subs.
Zachary Damascus
Three times actually becuase its 101 hp not 100
Brian Limeri
Lol i was thinking of level 50 battles when writing this iadmit defeat
Brian Limeri
Glad we sorted that out
Now i gotta go to the bathroom bye *hangs up*
Yair elam with silvally, garchomp and lucario If a lvl 50 mewtwo had 404 hp, it would actually be a ridiculous pokemon.
Aiden Bull
Right.
Forgot about that lol
I like how Gen 1 Mewtwo was designed to be beyond broken, other legendaries after it were made to be stronger and tankier than regular pokémon, but gen 1 Mewtwo was so absurdedly over the top, it was great. In a gen were most pokémon had very very limited movepools, and base stats like around 100/105 were considered pretty good, Mewtwo had: best typing and STAB in the game; huge movepool with access to almost every great move like Amnesia, Blizzard and Recover; 130 speed, making it the second fastest mon in the game for no reason, and 154 spA, which at the time was just complete insanity. And Mewtwo is bulky too, it had no business being that busted, but it was, and it was amazing. The fact that it was a final boss in Stadium, and you could still lose even when countering it, says a lot about it.
not as much of a final boss as round 2 fisherman in the Pika Cup I beat Mewtwo first try
A team of Chansey, Snorlax, Mewtwo, Exeggutor, Mew, and Slowbro can take down a Mewtwo easily. But yea Mewtwo is the best RBY Pokemon
there were still a few ways of handling it like freezing it, blowing up on it, status it, Seismic toss/Ice Beam Chansey, Self destruct Snorlax, Swords Dance Mew, Explosion Exeggutor, Amensia Slowbro l, and Ice Beam Mewtwo.
Yeah other legendaries are designed to be "much more powerful than ANY ONE ordinary pokemon" while Gen1 Mewtwo is designed to be "the final boss that you fight with your ENTIRE TEAM".
You lost to Mewtwo? 😢
I can't believe that it took me watching this video to realize that Mewtwo's taunt animation in Smash is the same animation Stadium had for Mewtwo using a status move . . . like Taunt.
I want to point out in Gen 4, he listed 9 of Mewtwo's like 15 viable move sets.
Well in a lot of cases when you have really op mons, they can really make any moveset work
@@herrabananithere are other cases where Pokémon’s are one dimensional and linear but just overpowered regardless. Example: gen 4 yache SD garchomp
See you all next week during the Mew video.

Hell yeah
Allrighty im satisfied! Mewtwo!
But...
Mew?
How good was Mew actually?
Snowy Fox OU every gen. Because flat 100 and learns every TM in the game
Natural Harmonia Gropius nope,uber in gens 1-4,uu in gen 5 and ou gen 6-7
Yup, exactly what I was thinking
mew is not powerful than mewtwo right ? ,, Right ?
Unnes Flash Nope
Q: How strong was/is Mewtwo ?
A: Yes
1 year later. Still op
Great comment ngl
The strongest man made pokemon, heck might be one of the strongest legends cz the base 780 megas
No Wonder he's on most teams i used
no mewtwo is not that strong anymore
One thing one my mind when this thing returns in Sw/Sh via HOME: Its newfound access to Nasty Plot. Nasty Plot. Yep, this cat is still continuing to learn more moves.
He only just got Nasty Plot?
Expanding force was the best addition to its movepool; for doubles at least. the thing is an absolute monster. It's really good in singles too paired w indeedee and a physical scarfer like galar darmanitan that like the psychic terrain to shut down priority, same goes for setup sash mons
Unfortunately, that's because Mewtwo is so bad that GF needs to give him a boost. And it still sucks in Ubers and BSD.
@@Softcorns it’s not bad. It’s still like B/C tier or something
@@Softcorns 1-It doesn't suck, but it isn't great
2-And the only reason Mewtwo is not that great is it doesn't have a broken ability like other tier staple Ubers.
Imagine giving it Quiver Dance, even more broken than the Amnesia variant.
NOT QUIVER DANCE MEWTWO PLEASE NO QUIVER DANCE MEWTWO PLEASE
meghanaingleshwar I mean Mewtwo IS genetically engineered to be perfect and can mutate so the possibility is there
Nish The Great how about yes? Nothing is impossible for mewtwo
Give Mewtwo Quiver Dance and you might as well not have competitive Pokemon anymore. It'll destroy anything
hydrahunter 462 It’s inevitable. Again, mewtwo can mutate bud. Denial won’t help you. Power is absolute. Beyond power and beyond strength
How GOOD was Mew ACTUALLY?
How GOOD was Gallade ACTUALLY?
FSG doesn’t even say“competitive formats”
You know history was made
After the Ferrothorn video, it feels somewhat surreal coming back to this and hearing him say "this is going to be a really long one".
How good was Mew Actually?
we will return to Aggron spam next week
Kyon the Brigader No. Aggron spam now! We almost had it!
AGGRON AGGRON AGGRON
How GOOD was Gallade ACTUALLY?
_If Mewtwo is so good, why isn't there a Mewthree?_
All jokes aside, Mewtwo is pretty badass, False Swipe did an impeccable job covering every single little bit of detail about Mewtwo.
Yep, he's the gen 1 meat grinder no questions asked
Bruh, you are here too?
I see we have good taste now
Your everywhere
Well some fangames have a mewthree, who gets all his new added stats and moves, not fun to fight againat
gen 1 mewtwo was the best pokemon period no equal.....most matches ended up with whoevers mewtwo went down first that was the winner didn't matter what the rest of the team was.
That's why you don't ever send out your Mewtwo first. You''ll want to hold onto it until the very end , because the other player will always try to specifically counter your Mewtwo. Something like a Snorlax body slam followed by a self-destruct; Chansey thunderwaving it; Eggsecutor or Jynx inflicting sleep on it; Even Electrode is very effective at dealing with it, as he's good at finishing weakened pokemon off.
Focus sash
Mega Ray in my opinion because it can hold an item and got banned from ubers and its ability and its move pool is better
Zeus Jupiter this is gen 1 Mewtwo not the other gens.
Zeus Jupiter mega rayquaza May have been banished to AG tier, but it still has its weaknesses.
how good was mewtwo
in smash bros
panther man He should wait until Smash ultimate is out for awhile
Meh in melee. Smash 4 also meh but buffed to top tier
horrible in melee but high (maybe even top) tier in smash 4
Hayds 126 "Meh in Melee."
Okay.
Not good in melee, op in project m until it got patched then it was pretty good, and pretty good in smash 4
How good was *Mew* ACTUALLY?
How GOOD was Gallade ACTUALLY?
Both exist
In Gen I, Mewtwo was OP:
-Psychic had no type weaknesses (minus power 20 bug moves)
-Special stat of 154
-It was before Special Split, so technically its Sp Atk/Sp Def were both 154 in R/B
-Could recover, and Amnesia rose Special ( both Sp Atk/Sp Def)
-Huge Vareity of Coverage Moves. Thunderbolt, Bubble Beam, Ice Beam, Flamethrower, Submission etc
-Tied for 2nd highest speed, resulting in a 25% Critical chance
-Access to Recover and Rest
-High HP for really bulky Substitutes
Seriously if it had even the movea that were introduced in later generations like Taunt and Bulk Up, it would even beat a full team of Mewtwos just by itself.
@@geometryemperor It was the only pokemon that was created with the intent of being virtually indestructible.
The only thing that could beat Mewtwo was freeze hax
Very Few checks and Counters too
- Other Mewtwo
- Chansey with Light Screen
- Mew with Explosion
- Slowbro ( if no T-Bolt)
- Snorlax with Amensia/Selfdestruct
- Exeggutor with Explosion
Lol why is there a comment chain just saying things this video was literally created to do?
Popular moves
:the entire movepool
Lmao
@@bobuxstuff121 ye finally i got a comment after 7 months
Seems pretty limiting
that fucking intro was amazing, gave me shivers
also, this video was easily one of the best. rewatching old competitive pokemon histories are boring because you weren't quite comfortable with being yourself as you hadn't quite grown into your niche yet. your voice is enthralling and i look forward to these videos every week. good improvement, i look forward to how you'll grow as a youtuber, Kellen
I agree!! I'm such a big fan, I've watched the intro like 10 times now!! These videos are released at 12pm my time and I'm always looking forward too it!!
18:07 I like how Mewtwos only counter in gen five was god itself
+Ethanerd
Mewtwo was GOD tier lol
And mewtwo can go toe to toe against it too
Mewtwo is GOD
Keith Farley you spelt Mega Rayquaza wrong
Eva Windeknecht *spelled*
Mewtwo is a textbook case of man's triumph over nature... in the Pokeverse.
Nature god rayquaza would like to laugh at mewtwo in anything goes
And before you say any choice scarf mega ray could 1 shot a mewtwo
@@sonix7769 no, it can't. Mewtwo actually survives choice scarf dragon ascent without any defensive investment (mega mewtwo doesn't but you aren't forced to mega evolve). Here's the thing, mega ray also survives mewtwo's ice beam but mewtwo is still faster if it also runs scarf. Those two are so extremely versatile that there are a thousand different things that could happen if they meet on the battlefield. Of course, mega rayquaza is the better pokemon overall (there IS a reason why it is banned from ubers) but doesn't change the fact that mega rayquaza actually loses against certain mewtwo sets (choice specs with ice beam wins an 1v1 against most if not almost every offensive variant of mega ray but some variants with defensive investment would beat it)
Mewtwo was a game breaking Pokemon.
*Laughs in missingno*
Lol
@@malexthegreat yeah...
*laughs in 0 defense and 6 special base stat*
Well then mega ray happened and everything went haywire, and anything goes was created
@@Ob1tuber anything goes has been around
Late to the party but *Laughs in X-x*
How good was Mew that we all got from under that truck years ago before the glitch was found years later ACTUALLY?

*Sees it's not April 1st...*
Oh hey, Mewtwo! :D
Danie van der Westhuyzen I stg 😂😂😂
Still baffles me how this is still the longest video ever done. Truly shows how powerful Mewtwo is.
FSG's first remake video is 35 minutes long. Kabutops video only a few seconds shorter.
@@shawnli4746 Imagine a fully indepth remake video for mewtwo... You know instead of fsg saying "... yeah yeah, one of the best to ever do it. NEXT." like he couldn't wait to hurry up and be done with it because he saw the script was a 7 chapter book. lol.
There was just a 40 minute one lmao
*laughs in scizor*
Wait until Lando-T
That intro was so deep, I thought Mewtwo was going to appear behind me.
24:35 *_... Unless you play Melee._*
Anthony B heh heh heh
waiting for that video
He is pretty good at Smash 4 tho 👌👌👌
I drew this pixel Squirtle Pretty good is an understatement. Mewtwo straight up teleported across the entire tier list after the speed buffs and Abadango winning a major with him.
Has he seen M2K play?
Therapist:Mewtwo doesn’t exist it cant hurt you
Mewtwo:
Producers of Detective Pikachu: That's a twist. That's very twisty.
Just get revelives
Mewtwo: I destroyed your smogon singles team
*Hello there*
Giovanni:
The music and excited tone of Kellen's narration just make this hype from start to finish. It's one of, if not the best video you guys have ever made. Truly fitting for the OG legend.
How good was *Mew* ?
C'mon, you can't just make a video about Mewtwo just because he's cooler. You gotta give that respek to the original!
DBZMacky 👍🏾
Seconded or thirded or whatever.
I CAN ONE HIT MEWTWO
JUST GONNA USE GENESIS SUPER NOVA...DEAD or just DRACO METEOR IT
Even though mews 151.
Lord Dio! And
*So* nice to see my username in the opening! So great to finally see this happening for reals!
And now, I think I'll join the others by asking: *How Good Was MEW Actually?*
How luucky!! (I saw mine too in the scroll down part) It was the best intro eveeer!! I've watched it like 10 times now xD
I was proud when i saw that
you can realize how excited he is while casting Mewtwo.
This video is just so good. I keep coming back to watch it every once in a while even 2 years later.
Dude me too
How good was *Mew* actually? You know, they are a duo, well, kind of.
Can learn all moves and has transform so its a ditto that can attack
Can transform into mewtwo
23:00 Although Mega Mewtwo X has some weird body proportions like Feraligatr, you gotta admit, those are the flashiest kicks I’ve ever seen.
Back when a 25 minute video was considered a very long one.
I still remember when 17 minutes was considered long
now you MUST do mew!
I can kill him just one hit and done
Who else was eventually strong enough to be banned to Ubers? Dugtrio! How good was Dugtrio actually?
Antonio Morales only because of arena trap
Ya they tessted it the reason it's was so good because of area trap
Actually, yes. Do dugtrio
MazterP28
To be fair most non legendary pokemon were/are uber because is their abilities
Aegislash, Wobbuffet, Mega kangastkhan, greninja, Mega sableye
[of course most don't kinda suck with out the ability that made them uber]
I thought Alolan Dugtrio had Tangling Hair,not Arena Trap.
Gen1 Mewtwo had the BST equivalent of 744, due to essentially having 154 special attack and special defense, and almost nothing could resist it, and nothing was immune to it. And of course, it’s the 4th fastest Pokémon in the game, had Gen 1 amnesia, and a crit ratio of ~25% on almost EVERYTHING
Yeah, this blows Gen 8 Zacian and Mega Rayquaza out of the water
Mewtwo does have answers, and it’s biggest weakness is that it’s best answer is itself. So that means that every team has the best answer to mewtwo on it. Rayquaza and zacian do are not counters to themselves, meaning they are still offensive monsters that demand very specific answers that can still just lose.
Nothing but facts.
Gen 1 Mewtwo: "Haha, I'm the strongest there is, nobody can beat me!"
Gen 8 Raid Mewtwo: "I beg your pardon?"
Ok
Oh cause its england haha
Gen 1 Mewtwo: Do I have the right moves to hit Mew, Other Mewtwo, Chansey, Slowbro, Snorlax, and Exxegutor?
*Eternamax Eternatus looks from the sky*
Wait mewtwo can be in a raid battle?
If gen 7 is being covered now that's a big step up in production time, thanks for your hard work.
I'll throw my vote on misdreavus this week.
Agreed.
How HARD was Metapod ACTUALLY?
Eiad Altouaimi 👀👀😏😏😍😍🍆🍆🥜🥜
Top uber threat every gen
Kaiser all you need yo know right here
The hardest of them all.
pretty hard in nu
Sounds about right. My older brother had a friend who had 6 mewtwos because he traded from his other pokemon game and gameboy and was simply unbeatable. He had specialized the movesets to have total type coverage twice over so even if through attrition a mewtwo did go down it had another that could still counter whatever got a lucky crit or barely picked it off after sacrificing 1 or 2 other pokemon first to weaken it.
The gen 1 part of this legit gives me chills with how it's described
Now you have to do Mew
I love how this is the most popular video in this channel and for good reason. A lot of people like Mewtwo and Mewtwo is the king of RBY
Not surprise
Mewtwo has only 6 checks in the entire game in Gen 1. Most powerful Pokémon ever in existence . FSG is missing 4 more checks
Still the best Pokemon
@@bryanc1772 with 406 special defense and a move that gives it a plus 2 in special attack and special defense and ghost moves did not affect it at all
@@romerobone6617 yea if you didn’t even have Mewtwo , Slowbro or Light screen Chansey on your team
Well good luck dealing with Mewtwo.
A Mew Snorlax and Exeggutor were also just checks
Or to simply quote the start of Smogon's analysis of Mewtwo in RBY: "Feast your eyes on the most destructive Pokemon in any tier in history."
I feel like people have forgotten about it but...
How GOOD was Forretress ACTUALLY?
Well, with that out of the way, how GOOD was Mew ACTUALLY?
I have literally no clue on what's going on 60% of the video, i even attended competitive pokemon tournaments for a while, and all things considered this was such a great and deep analysis, it left me wondering how such an emblematic pokemon and all the combos mentioned didn't even crossed my head. excellent content, it's super effective.
Every now and then I come back to this video because the G1 overview is so hype
How GOOD was Mew ACTUALLY? It only makes sense to do Mew next after a Mewtwo video, right?
I can kill it in one hit
Ancient Mew
Which is why mew is the best!
And will always be!
@lexascarlett27
Hold up, did you really reply to me after 3 years? Lmfao
How GOOD is Ninetales ACTUALLY. Come on, been waiting for a long time and now that we are doing gen 7, we can do Alolan Ninetales.
Regular Ninetales is straight up bad. But Alolan Ninetales is quite good. It was BL thanks to it being too strong in UU.
I love how in most of if not all his videos, he usually says "How good was this Pokémon Actually?" but for Mewtwo he doesn't even need to go there... Just stating the term "Mewtwo is Here!" only speaks for itself. It's a Pokémon that genuinely needs no question of its power because it's already so terrifying and powerful that it questions what even rivals it? Just that fact alone shows how far Mewtwo has gotten over the years and to this very day Gen 1 Mewtwo still remains one of the most terrifying Pokémon in existence next to Mega Rayquaza. That's Legendary status! 👍
I’m playing a stadium hack right now and darn Mewtwo is such a Pain to play against if you re not using the Mewtwo counters like Chansey, Snorlax, Slowbro, Exeggutor
There are very limited answers to RBY Mewtwo and even your own Mew and Mewtwo isn’t a guaranteed
@@bryanc1772 ye unless you cheese, Mewtwo is very annoying to deal with especially since its stats are maxed
"Unless you play melee" lmao that low blow
-25 minutes
-Full smogon coverage
-Almost full VGC coverage
And people said it would be short
My grandma died this Sunday and it's been an awfully tough evening, but at least I can cheer up a little with this great content by FSG. And on top of that, with a video about Mewtwo! It makes me really nostalgic of the good old days...
Travis the Great I'm sorry for your loss... may your grandmother rest in peace.
Jaiden Carvalho Thank you, man!
Travis the Great i'm sorry to hear that
EDIT: i lost my dad 4 years ago, then later my uncle the next year
I'm sorry bro,grandparents are a gift and i hope you get better.
I'm sorry to hear that. :(
I love listening to these. I never got into competitive Pokémon, but having played other games competitively I absolutely love hearing these sorts of details. Makes me wish I could go back in time and play it competitively from the beginning.
It has to be said that your intros are consistently great; and this one stands as one of your best!
How good was Mew ACTUALLY?!
I suddenly realised that even after all those years Pokémon Stadium has something new for me: I never saw Mewtwo doing the move Submission.
Leto85 its not really a Good move for Mewtwo in Gen 1.
Taking Recoil Damage sucks and if you want to hit Chansey and Snorlax you can just use Psychic which crumbles Chansey the same way with Psychic Drops
Submission is better in Gen 2
Bryan C Chansey is a Special Wall, what do you mean?
Not Exactly A Human Being Since Chansey ususally uses Softboiled to shugg off special hits, Mewtwo can just use Psychic repeatedly until Special Drops happen.
+6 Mewtwo Psychic vs. Chansey through Light Screen: 158-186 (22.4 - 26.4%) -- 17.4% chance to 4HKO
+6 Mewtwo Psychic vs. - 2 Chansey through Light Screen: 314-369 (44.6 - 52.4%) -- 20.2% chance to 2HKO
Chansey will eventually crumble to Special Drops even with Light Screen on.
You can always use Submission too but its not even a guranteed 2OHKO and you take a lot of recoil in the process
Mewtwo Submission vs. Chansey: 336-396 (47.7 - 56.3%) -- 86.7% chance to 2HKO
Same applies for Snorlax
Bryan C That’d be a waste of Psychics, at least to me, so it’s probably a better idea just to run Submission.
Not Exactly A Human Being Its an option but taking 20 percent or more recoil with Mewtwo is not exactly appealing especially for just Chansey and Snorlax
You also just get utterly walled easier by other Psychics like Exeggutor, Slowbro, Mew, and even opposing Mewtwo.
If Chansey hasn't setup Light Screen yet you can also hit it hard on the switch if you boost up a alot already
+6 Mewtwo Psychic vs. Chansey: 314-369 (44.6 - 52.4%) -- 20.2% chance to 2HKO
+6 Mewtwo Psychic vs. Snorlax: 423-498 (80.8 - 95.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Gen 1 Mewtwo: I am the most powerful pokemon, that is literally what I was made to be.
Mega Rayquaza: Smogon had to make a new tier because of me. I am superior.
Arceus: *Cries in the corner*
Hoping they make an Arceus form where it hold all of the plate just like the manga.
it's kinda stupid that the god of all pokemons is weaker than 6 other pokemons.
@@itsamebenjamintennyson1230 in the gen 4 remakes they should make an arceus "holy form"

I'm currently playing a fangame called Pokemon Zeta and Mewtwo has a holdable item called strange machine and this makes gives it dope looking (but only cosmetic) armor that updates its sprite in battles and in the overworld, but most importantly gives it this OP skill called hubris, which increases it's special attack every time it gets a KO. With a pokemon that can already OHKO a lot of others, giving it even higher attack with each subsequent KO is absolutely a killer. So much fun.
So Calyrex-Shadow stole this gimmick of raising Special Attack after a K.O?
So it's not only cosmetic
@@Lrizu the armor is cosmetic, the item isnt ( i believe )
@@sleepycharm8639 the armor isn't cosmetic then, if it was solely cosmetic, he wouldn't get anything from holding the item, only the armor
@@Lrizu huh?? no
strange machine, gives:
- armor (cosmetic, does nothing)
- hubris (boosting ability)
the strange machine has a use but the armor given is independently cosmetic, thats what op meant
Insert yet another comment asking how good was Mew actually, as if that isn’t 90% of the comments already
ikr
How was mew actually?
How GOOD was Gallade ACTUALLY?
shadow Xッ I like that idea!
This intro was bonechilling
Nice to see you here
I use to watch your videos a LOT back in the day, they were just fun to binge. Feels a little nostalgic haha
Finally had Mewtwo!
Next logical step:
How GOOD was Mew ACTUALLY?
Mammel248 OU every gen
*Ubers in the first four gens
Niche in gen 5 Ubers
OU in the rest.
It lived in Mewtwo's shadow every single gen. But still good thanks to it's expansive movepool and base 100 stats across the board
Now we're officially using gen 7. Yay! Let's see ninetails then.
I love the excitement in his voice! It really shows he appreciates the value of a good pokemon
Mewtwo's Competitive History in a nutshell: Improvise, Adapt, Overcome.
what about mew tho?
Pleasant Leech 3
almost as good as dunsparce
yet even more lightyears from magicarp
Almost
Peanut it is from Brock gym trainer gym xddd
And 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 light years from Cosmog
*nerd has joined the chat*
Actuallllly, Arceus has a pretty high BST. I think it’s the HIGHEST NON MEGA BASE STAT TOTAL!!! Idiots🙄
Now imagine, if pokemon were allowed 5 or 6 moves instead of 4. Mewtwo would be able to counter nearly everything at once.
Mewtwo : i fear no man ,but that thing
*Points towards Wobbuffet*
How TOP PERCENTAGE was Rattata ACTUALLY?
rattata isn't even good for little cup or any battles in general
and it's only there for youngster joey memes and noob ubers
I sense someone with no sense of humor! Unleash the ban hammer!

When you need to bring god just to beat this og legend
The fact that, almost 2 years later, this is _still_ the longest video in the series, tells us something about Mewtwo.
Vietcongster No longer
Scissor is like imma end this mas whole career
@@isetmfriendsofire My comment didn't age well, actually it took like only a couple months lol.
@@eljefedagoat just change the evs.
How GOOD was Mamoswine ACTUALLY?
Gimme my boy Manny already
He has done it already
prakash vetriselvi He did ice types in general, not one specifically
It has its strange Role cauz it doesnt care about Weather and has a very huge attack Stat. It was strong in Gen 5 but I dont know if raw power had much success in other Gens.
How good was Dugtrio!
Congratulations.
@@leafshavingtool9185 lol
If I miss destroying everything with Mewtwo, I’ll just go to my moms house and get my old console and Pokémon Stadium.

Even if Mewtwo isn't as string as it used to be, just remember.
Mewtwo created Ubers.
Mew! You've done the clone, now we need the OG.
How GOOD was DUSCLOPS/DUSKNOIR?
Finally someone that agrees with me #dusclops/dusknoir
Kevin Hanson sad. Good bulk but bad HP
I listen to this when I'm playing Doom. The music choice and the narration made me invincible.
I love stumbling across these older fsg vids when everyone thought a 14 minute video on tyranitar was long; now we have several
Amazing video as always! I follow this series from Italy and thanks for using my channel video! 😍
Francesco Pardini anche tu segui la serie?
E chi se lo aspettava :D
Plot twist
Francesco Pardini cos' è un episodio crossover
Bapada boopie?
This video has an amazing amount of work behind
Those first 3.5 minutes are some of my favourite lines out of all FSG videos
