Mewtwo currently ranks 20th on the ''Melee'' [[tier list]], in the D tier, which is its worst placement in the whole series. Its positives include a long and safe recovery, potent chaingrabbing abilities, a large pool of mixup options, decent combo abilities, and among the best throws in the game. This gives it a decent advantage state to utilize and threatening once it begins to combo foes. However, Mewtwo suffers from an unusual combination of being a large target and a lightweight; this, combined with its floatiness, makes it vulnerable to early KOs. Additionally, Mewtwo lacks safe and reliable KOing options, with most of them having little reach, and many weak attacks, giving it relatively fewer approach and offensive options as other characters.

Mewtwo defies any typical character archetype; despite being a big target with some powerful moves and a very high air speed, Mewtwo has a rather slow dash, a low weight and a low falling speed. As a result of these traits, Mewtwo has the third longest wavedash in the game, but a very poor [[SHFFL]], despite its low lag and high speed aerials. Mewtwo also can effectively [[moonwalk]], potentially aiding its edgeguard game.

Among Mewtwo's primary strengths is its versatile grab game. Despite possessing a merely average grab range, Mewtwo's throws can serve a variety of purposes; its forward throw is good for racking up damage or starting combos, while its down throw can potentially start chainthrows or be used as potential combo starters in tandem with one of its tilts. Mewtwo's back and up throws are also among the most powerful in the game, and both can KO reliably on some characters at 100%; the differences in their trajectories also gives Mewtwo varied options against both fast fallers and floaty characters (the up throw works better against the latter, while the back works better against the former).

*Despite its light weight in ''Melee'', Mewtwo is still the heaviest Pokémon fighter in the game. This would change with the additions of [[Lucario]], [[Ivysaur]] and [[Charizard]] in ''Brawl''.
