[[Back aerial]] is Mewtwo's second slowest aerial, primarily being used to wall out offstage opponents who have poor range and/or recoveries. However, it can be beaten out by disjoints easily, cannot reliably hit close to ground at any height, and leaves Mewtwo's tail very vulnerable if it whiffs. Since it swings its tail upwards, it is also less effective when Mewtwo is falling downwards, and is better used while Mewtwo is rising from its midair jump. As a result, it cannot fulfill the role of giving Mewtwo good effective range in the neutral game. [[Down aerial]] has the most startup of Mewtwo's aerials, but is a very strong [[meteor smash]] when sweetspotted, has a decently disjointed hitbox directly beneath Mewtwo that can [[Edge#2_frame_punish|two frame punish]], and can also serve as a situational combo starter at low to medium percentages. | [[Back aerial]] is Mewtwo's second slowest aerial, primarily being used to wall out offstage opponents who have poor range and/or recoveries.

Mewtwo's [[neutral special]], [[Shadow Ball]], has excellent versatility, as it can combo into virtually any of Mewtwo's quicker moves at any percent depending on the charge of the projectile. When fully charged, it also becomes a reliable KO move at high percents, and deals decent [[shield]] damage for good measure. In midair, it can even be used as a landing mixup, as the recoil from the fully charged variant pushes Mewtwo back a considerable distance. Mewtwo can utilize techs like [[wavebounce]]s, [[B-reverse]]s, Shadow Ball cancels and turnaround specials to make its movement even more tricky, improving its baits and punishes. However, it has a decent amount of startup, making it risky to use at close range.

Its [[side special]], [[Confusion]], is a command grab with a very large grabbox that doubles as a somewhat slow but very active [[reflector]] and can be used for combo setups, though alert opponents can react out of it before Mewtwo below a certain amount of damage. | ||
Mewtwo's [[down special]], [[Disable]], is a risky option in most situations due to its start-up, high ending lag and its requirement that the opponent be within a very short distance away while also facing Mewtwo on the ground for it to work. However, if landed at mid to high percentages, it more often than not leads to a guaranteed stock by allowing Mewtwo to punish the opponent with any option that will KO, such as with Down Smash or a charged, upward-angled Forward Smash. It additionally has intangibility frames before the attack comes out, making it easier to beat out poor grounded approaches with while also ensuring that Mewtwo will not stun the opponent while simultaneously taking a hit, and serving as a very niche defensive option in the air. | Mewtwo's [[down special]], [[Disable]], is a risky option in most situations due to its start-up, high ending lag and its requirement that the opponent be within a very short distance away while also facing Mewtwo on the ground for it to work.
