What is a good moveset for Mewtwo?

4 votes

I just caught Mewtwo in Heart Gold(HOORAY!) and I have decided a couple moves already to teach him by the time he's lvl 100. So far, I have Psychic, and Aura Sphere. What else should he know? Should I replace any of these moves?

I would go for:
- Psychic
- Aura Sphere (for Dark coverage)
- Recover
- Calm Mind to boost stats, or Ice Beam for more type-coverage.

I would do:

Psychic: STAB, good power, high accuracy, chance to lower Sp. Def.

Ice Beam: Good power, high accuracy, chance to freeze, deals with Dragon types.

Shadow Ball: Mewtwo's signature move. Good power, high accuracy, decent chance to lower Sp. Def, used to deal with Ghost types.

Thunder: High power, good chance to paralyze.

Other good options are Aura Sphere, Taunt, Calm Mind, Light Screen, Reflect, and Selfdestruct.

Gen V

Mewtwo @ Choice Specs

Trait: Pressure

EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd

Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)

  • Aura Sphere
  • Thunder
  • Shadow Ball
  • Ice Beam

This provides Super-Effective coverage against almost anything you'd face in Ubers. Shadow Ball deals with all the Psychics, as well as Chandelure. Thunder takes down the Flying types of Uber, as well as Kyogre. Ice Beam also deals with the Flying types of Uber, all the Dragon types, and Groudon. Aura Sphere takes down Dialga and Darkrai. The only common Ubers who won't be hit for super-effective damage are Jirachi, some random Arceus types, and Palkia. However, you'll be able to do enough damage to these Pokemon with a neutral hit off of Mewtwo's Choice Spec boosted Special Attack. Your EVs are sweeping EVs.

Mewtwo @ Life Orb

Trait: Pressure

EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd

Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)

  • Psystrike
  • Aura Sphere
  • Ice Beam
  • Calm Mind

Psystrike is for going Physical, it's Mewtwos signature move so it's awasome.
Aura Sphere gives coverage against darkrai, Mainly.
Ice Beam hits super effective against annoying dragons.
Calm Mind to get a nice boost in POWA and sp.def.

Mewtwo @ Life Orb

Role: Sunny Sweeper

Trait: Pressure

EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd

Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)

  • SolarBeam
  • Flamethrower
  • Aura Sphere
  • Psystrike

When you have a Groudon lead.
SolarBeam is 1 turn coverage in the sun, along with Flamethrower getting powered up.
Aura Sphere is coverage, while Psystrike is amazing STAB.

Item: Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
Nature: Jolly
EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Speed, 6 Hp


Bulk-up
Ice-punch
Fire-punch/Thunder-punch
Earthquake/Drain-punch


Ever notice that great 110 Attack, probably not as Mewtwo has the second highest S.Attack in the game(154), but his Attack is still great. Bulk-up is boosting. Ice-punch is coverage. Fire-punch/Thunder-punch choose coverage. Earthquake/Drain-punch more powerful coverage or weaker coverage and healing.

Double/Triple Battle

Mewtwo @ Life Orb
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Psystrike
- Blizzard
- Aura Sphere
- Charge Beam

There is a reason why Mewtwo is the fourth most powerful Pokemon (after Kyogre, Arceus, and Lugia). Mewtwo is simply amazing. Psystrike is incredibly powerful STAB. Blizzard hits multiple foes. Aura Sphere can hit any foe in a Triple Battle. And Charge Beam can be used to finish off (which is actually a large amount of health remaining for some Pokemon, 407 Life Orb boosted Special Attack after all) a foe and possibly gain a Special Attack boost. Which means the end of all life as we know it.

Item:Whatever you want (Shell Bell)
Ability: Pressure
EV's: Max Speed and Sp.atk

  • Psystrike
  • Aura Sphere
  • Shadow Ball/ Calm Mind
  • Flamethrower/Ice Beam

Psystrike is a little bit better than Psychic with STAB but Psychic maybe decreases the oppenent's Sp. Def.
Aura Sphere for type coverage .This attack never misses!
Shadow Ball again for coverage and may decrease opponent's Special Defense .That's why I don't recommend Psychic in this Pokemon.Calm Mind increases Sp.Atk. and Sp.Def .
Flamethrower and Ice Beam for more type coverage !

Now, Psystrike hits those withh high Sp. Defense. AUra SPhere is for Darkrai. Ice Beam and Shadow Ball for Dragons and Psychics.
