Despite these strengths, Mewtwo packs some severe, glaring weaknesses, most notably in its weight and size. Mewtwo is tied for the seventh lightest character in the game and it is prone to losing stocks at low percents. Unlike the other characters in its weight class, Mewtwo is easier to hit and juggle because of how big and floaty it is, making matchups such as {{SSBU|Fox}} and {{SSBU|Falco}} notoriously difficult. Its slow double jump and lack of combo breaker moves, combined with the aforementioned downsides, leads to Mewtwo having a very poor disadvantage state (outside of recovery), made worse by its infamous tail hurtbox, making Mewtwo easier to be clipped by a lot of attacks while also adding extra risk to the usage of tail moves. | Despite these strengths, Mewtwo packs some severe, glaring weaknesses, most notably in its weight and size.

Overall, while Mewtwo possesses strong tools and high KO power, as well as a powerful projectile and combo game courtesy of Shadow Ball, it is difficult for it to find consistency due to its undesirable combination of being a very large and lightweight | Overall, while Mewtwo possesses strong tools and high KO power, as well as a powerful projectile and combo game courtesy of Shadow Ball, it is difficult for it to find consistency due to its undesirable combination of being a very large and lightweight character. | ||

As a result, Mewtwo is a character with a fairly high learning curve, as it has to capitalize on reads more often than not because of its frailty and susceptibility to pressure. While Mewtwo's moveset may not be as versatile as other characters, such as {{SSBU|Wolf}}'s, it makes up for it with comparatively huge power and damage output. In short, Mewtwo has the attack power and range of an archetypal heavyweight, yet retains the combo game and mobility of a lightweight. | As a result, Mewtwo is a character with a fairly high learning curve, as it has to capitalize on reads more often than not because of its frailty and susceptibility to pressure.
