Just a improvement...

Hello. I read the following phrase: It was also said to be under a truck in one of the cities, though it had ended up as a trick.[25]

Apparently, someone just get a misconception of the reference. The link there (which actually doesn't give any explicit text about the phrase) just redirects to The Pokémon Company marketing site about a brief description of Mewtwo. Moreover, that reference points our to the suppoused glitch about Mew, a hoax that widespread during the localization of Red/Blue in America and Europe. So, I propose to remove that part and add it in Mew article instead. Thanks. --«[Gtr.]» Errol 06:09, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

Only One Scientist

I made an edit regarding the fact that in the main series games, Mewtwo was created by a lone scientist and not a team of researchers, as evidenced by Pokédex entries from Red/Blue, LeafGreen, X, and Shield as well as the fact the Pokémon Mansion Journals use singular pronouns in Japanese with the plurals being added in localization. Someone has undone this edit. I feel that my edit should be restored as it shows in important difference in the canon of the games compared to the anime and similar adaptations which present Mewtwo as created by a team of researchers. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? MewtwoRBGY (talk) 22:43, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

I feel the sentiments of the reverter are shared by me here. The information isn't really too relevant and a minor detail of Mewtwo's backstory overall, and the information itself needs a reliable source (Which Tumblr is not). Given the fact in-game sources have said multiple things, it might be a decent idea to say something along the lines of "a scientist or a group of scientists" but again, it needs a reliable source discussing this difference in scientist number.

I have additional sources that confer with the fact that the original Japanese indicates only one scientist such as this, TheGamer, and Bulbapedia. It is a minor detail, but I feel like it is important to note if only for the fact to point out the differences between the games and anime, especially since the anime's backstory for Mewtwo seems to be the only one ever considered. I think the fact that Mewtwo was created by a rogue scientist instead of a group as most adaptations show is notable detail even if only for the fact to show the differences between the canons.

TheGamer should suffice for this, though TCRF.net and Bulbapedia are not reliable. I believe an in-line note would likely be the best course for this to avoid bloating the text. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 23:40, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Added the note, please let me know if it is not up to standards. MewtwoRBGY (talk) 23:57, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

I honestly still feel this is trivial information and best to Keep It Simple, sorry.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 01:33, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

I mean, I'd argue it's sensible to be factual about it, given the current description is inaccurate given what's been brought up. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 01:34, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Mega Evolution Pictures

I was thinking that it would be a good idea to put pictures of Mega Mewtwo X and Y in the Appearances section since they do appear somewhat frequently in various games and it would just be nice to show them in the article itself. I am wondering if anyone has any objections to this or if you also think it would be a good idea. MewtwoRBGY (talk) 17:45, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
