Teleport (テレポート, Teleport) is Mewtwo's up special move.

Overview

Teleport in Melee.

Mewtwo quickly vanishes and reappears in a different location, depending on how the user tilts the control stick. If it teleports into the air, it will fall in a helpless animation. When used quick enough on the ground, it can be used in place of a dodge, side step, or rolling, as there is less lag time and it throws the opponent off. The only way to travel faster with Mewtwo is its wavedash. This third jump, along with its other normal two jumps, allows for Mewtwo's superbly long and safe recovery. Teleport also passes through attacks. However, this move does not cause any damage to the opponent.

Advanced techniques

Teleport can be used in a series of advanced techniques, which can be be viewed below.

Origin

Teleport is a Psychic-type status move introduced in Generation I, that automatically makes the user run away from a wild Pokémon battle. It is useless in a trainer battle.

It is TM30 in Generation I only, which is the only way to teach it to Mewtwo. In the field, it teleports the trainer to the last Pokémon Center they visited. It is learned naturally by some Psychic-types, of which the most notable is Abra, who is notoriously annoying to catch due to Teleport being its only move.

Customization

Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the variations:

1. Teleport
Teleport
"Warp instantly to another location. Choose your destination by entering a direction."
  1. Teleport: Default.

Like the other DLC characters, Mewtwo lacks custom move variations (aside from the glitch ones in 1.0.6).

Trivia

  • Teleport and Agility are the only attacks in Melee to have no direct effect on opponents. Coincidentally, they are both up special moves performed by Pokémon, and both were absent from Brawl and the initial release of Smash 4.
