The problem is that Mewtwo's Selfdestruct is not powerful enough to kill anything that it couldn't kill another way. Both Ubers are so bulky that they can take it and come out grinning (hence why they're Uber), Chansey is better dealt with via Submission, and everything else dies horribly to one of {STAB Psychic, Ice Beam, Thunderbolt} from 812 Special after an Amnesia on the switch.We get it, Wrap can mitigate a paralyzed Mewtwo's strength because it can't move after being Wrapped, but it's vulnerable to unlucky misses. That's true for pretty much anything. Let's steer the conversation back to Mewtwo and not continue to derail the thread that only exists because of a derail in another thread.
Oh, and because just saying "hey gais dont derail pls" isn't very constructive, let me pose the following question about Mewtwo: does Selfdestruct have a place on a Mewtwo set for allowing you to trade with your opponent's Mewtwo or Mew before they can have a chance to set up and sweep? Or is Mewtwo literally so broken that sacrificing it for a kill is just stupid?
Mew's Explosion is good because it OHKOs Mewtwo at +2, whereas Mewtwo will normally outpace Mew for the kill thanks to its higher speed and better base attacking stat. Mewtwo's Selfdestruct doesn't really give much of an advantage in any situation, and it comes with an obviously huge price tag attached.
I have a few. PM me your email address, I'm not posting a raw log in-thread.A bit off topic but does anyone have any logs of them successfully combating a wrap team? I have had issues with them in the past and have only ever seen how to combat it in passing discussion. If you have any logs of actually performing in that method, that would be great.
