Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4
Aesthetics
As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Mewtwo's model features a more subdued color scheme and a glossy sheen, similar to its appearance in Pokkén Tournament. Its model otherwise appears similar to the previous installment.- 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 an altered animation.- Forward tilt has more range and knockback.
Down tilt has increased endlag (roughly 4 frames).- 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
- Shadow Ball travels slightly slower.
- Shadow Ball has a shorter duration by at least 3 frames (49->46)
- 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.
- Disable has a different animation, with Mewtwo spreading its arms out while flashing its eyes.
