Listen "Beyond the Ball 150 - Mewtwo"
Episode Synopsis
Episode 150 is finally here and, as decided by listener poll, we're talking about the one and only Mewtwo, the McRib of Pokémon! There's a lot to dig into so buckle up for an extra special, oversized episode of Beyond the Ball! Follow along with the entries below:
Red and Blue: It was created by a scientist after years of horrific gene splicing and DNA engineering experiments.
Yellow: Its DNA is almost the same as MEW’s. However, its size and disposition are vastly different.
Gold: Because its battle abilities were raised to the ultimate level, it thinks only of defeating its foes.
Silver: It usually remains motionless to conserve energy, so that it may unleash its full power in battle.
Crystal: Said to rest quietly in an undiscovered cave, this POKéMON was created solely for battling.
Ruby and Sapphire: MEWTWO is a POKéMON that was created by genetic manipulation. However, even though the scientific power of humans created this POKéMON’s body, they failed to endow MEWTWO with a compassionate heart.
FireRed: A POKéMON whose genetic code was repeatedly recombined for research. It turned vicious as a result.
Emerald: A POKéMON that was created by genetic manipulation. However, even though the scientific power of humans made its body, they failed to give it a warm heart.
Diamond, Pearl & Platinum: A Pokémon created by recombining MEW’s genes. It’s said to have the most savage heart among Pokémon.
Sword: Created from the DNA of Mew, this Pokémon is a dangerous combination of overwhelming power and a savage heart.
Shield: The research efforts of a certain scientist ultimately resulted in this Pokémon. Its powers are dedicated to battling.
BTB: Perhaps the most misunderstood Pokemon of all time, it should probably just be left alone.

Mega Mewtwo Y (https://img.pokemondb.net/artwork/mewtwo-mega-y.jpg)
Let's Go Pikachu & Let's Go Eevee: Despite its diminished size, its mental power has grown phenomenally. With a mere thought, it can smash a skyscraper to smithereens.
