Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

NOTE: SmashWiki is not speculative. Please refrain from adding detailed data values derived from pre-release gameplay footage, such as the E3 demo. Such data (damage values, launch trajectories, frame data, etc.) are subject to change before the official release.

Aesthetics

• As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Mewtwo's model features a more subdued color scheme. Its body has a noticeable glossy sheen.
• Some of Mewtwo's attacks have been updated with new particle effects, including every attack that previously had the Darkness effect like its smash attacks and special moves.
• Mewtwo's idle animation has been slightly altered; it now keeps one of its arms lifted.

Ground Moves

• Dash attack has an altered animation: Mewtwo now only uses one hand during the attack instead of both.
• Forward tilt has a new animation where Mewtwo spins horizontally to strike with its tail.
• Forward tilt has more range and knockback.
• Down tilt has increased endlag.
• Forward smash can now be angled.
• Up smash's effect area has been enlarged.

Aerial Moves

• Neutral aerial now has Mewtwo discharge blue electricity around itself while flashing with a blue overlay, instead of discharging multicolored electric orbs.

Throws/other attacks

• Back throw has an altered animation, with Mewtwo tossing the opponent over its shoulder nonchalantly.

Special Moves

• Confusion halts Mewtwo's momentum, worsening it as a recovery move.
• Confusion no longer corrects the opponent's position to the center of the ripple when captured.
• Teleport has a darker, more distinct visual effect when Mewtwo disappears and reappears.
• Disable has a different animation, with Mewtwo spreading its arms out while flashing its eyes.
• Fully charged Shadow Ball is smaller and travels slower.
• Shadow Ball charges faster.
