Overview
Mewtwo does a spin with his tail sticking out. This is generally believed to be one of Mewtwo's best moves as well as one of the best down tilts in all of Melee.
It has exceptional startup, being Mewtwo's fastest move on the ground, with very short end lag due to its big interruptibility window. This makes it difficult to punish if it misses, and coupled with its above average range, it is completely impossible to punish out of shield if spaced properly.
It can also start combos, being easily Mewtwo's best combo starter. Typical follow-ups for down tilt include itself at lower percents, its forward aerial to set up a juggling situation, and its grab to either combo fast fallers with up throw, set up a tech chase with down throw, or KO its opponent with up or back throw.
