PSA: Get Mewtwo for Pokémon White and Black  photo

Mewtwo. I can't put into words how bitter I was that I couldn't get it back when I had Pokémon Blue. It will be available as a special download from February 12th through the 26th for anyone with Pokémon Black or White. This isn't just charity; this promotion follows on the heels of Pokémon TCG: Black & White on February 8th.

In honor of this new Mewtwo release, the spiffy little guy has been given some upgrades like Shadow Ball and Electro Ball. Mewtwo also comes with Psystrike, and a few other goodies for trainers and their pokémon. For all the information on how to get your hands on Mewtwo, go here. It may not be the same as having him on Blue and Red, but I'll take it.

I wish they did this the same way they released Arceus, with an online password. I don't own Black or White yet, but I got Arceus just a few hours ago, and it's just sitting in my Pokemon account online. Mewtwo is a direct wifi download to a cartridge, though. :-(

What I said yesterday here:
"I can't wait for Nintendo to start charging for Mewtwo/Lugia/Rayquaza."

Glad they proved me wrong so quickly. Good to see that some companies know how to do DLC without thinking "profit, profit, profit" all the time.

...ahhh Victoria, Mewtwo is in Pokemon blue. You beat the Elite 4 and go to the Cerulean cave, and he's in there.

I had him in Yellow. I used that lone masterball and that psychic powerhouse was MINE! I gave him a fire attack, too, so even a bug type couldn't keep him down.

Ah, those were the days, when Pokemon were numbered at 150.

Still not as bad as locking Mew down and only allowing you to unlock it by going to those stupid live nintendo events.. at least Mewtwo was obtainable in-game.

I got him in Yellow. As long as you didn't use that Master Ball on anything else, he's easy to catch.

Uh, I've only ever really played Pokemon Blue(though I've 'tried' one or two others) and I got Mewtwo just fine. The only way you could NOT get Mewtwo was to not save before fighting him(and at that point in the game you should have known to do that) and then failing to capture him. So the fault would be your own. Unless you were talking about a different game and/or a different Pokemon(Did you mean Mew?).

m i rite?

@Fugly Duckling:
You mean 151? (Mew)

@lightside

There was kind of 151, but I don't really count Mew at that time since the only way you get it was through special Nintendo events specifically for players to get him, or you could be sensible and use a gameshark.

Yes, technically there were 151, but Mew is kind of this nasty footnote that I choose to not remember because it was stupid in what you had to do to get him. Unless you cheated. Which I would NEVER do...

@Rammstein

Other way would be if you didn't save your Masterball IIRC.

At the time, I had a friend who owned Red while I had Blue. He used his on a Zapdos when I got my Mewtwo with it. Link battles couldn't have been more one-sided :).

umm.. Okay, this might sound a little dicky, but why exactly couldn't you get him in Blue? He wasn't exactly all that hard to get. I really would like an elaboration of that story.

@Frigidevil

Unless somethings unmentioned has change, Game Freak already said last year, at about this time, that they had no interest in doing a Pokemon Grey. This generation of Pokemon gets Black and White, so they can focus on making a purely 3D edition for the 3DS that'll be in its own generation. I just hope they stick to their guns with that, cause my body is ready.

I have absolutely no idea what you just said.

You can get Arceus for Black/White, though -- I hope that kind of helps.

...OP, how the hell did you miss Mewtwo in 1stGen? He was practically a freebie monster, since you should have saved your Master Ball for it... right?

If you used the masterball on another pokemon you were boned. Only the master ball could hold the powerhouse.
