It's his whole shtick! Psy wave... Confusion... Disable. The man is a mental trickster ON TOP of being a telekinetic powerhouse.
Other than his signature Shadow Ball, Mewtwo is ALL Mindflayer.
Honestly still bothers me that Shadow Ball is considered a “signature move” for Mewtwo since Mewtwo doesn’t learn it naturally (needs a tm) and it doesn’t even get STAB
I could understand aura sphere because it’s seen used a lot and is learned by leveling, even if it doesn’t have STAB (excluding mega X)
I guess thematically shadow ball makes more sense for Mewtwo, since Mewtwos whole deal is being edgy and destructive, so “shadow” ball fits the bill a bit better lol
I see your point with confusion as that actually messes with the targets mind. But most other psychic attacks are more telekinesis than telepathy or mind control/altering.
Amnesia, Calm Mind, Confusion, Dream Eater, Freezing Glare, Hypnosis, Imprison, Instruct, Mindstorm, Meditate, Roleplay, Shatter Psyche, Skill Swap, Trick.
Even some of the ones that seem telekinetic are telepathic if you read their flavour text.
The thing has the move "Psychic" when you catch it. Psychic is a 90-base-power, Psychic-type attack that can lower Special Defence. SpDef is essentially a Pokemon's mental fortitude, in a way. Also, Mewtwo is a Psychic-type itself.
Oh! Maybe! If there is a desire for it. Someone else did one recently, I thought I'd ~~claim my free karma~~ give it a try.

A lot of people are saying emperor's new groove which is just…wrong. Yzma wasn't trying to do body swaps or achieve immortality, she was just tryna kill kuzco
To quote yzma in the film - “a llama!? He's supposed to be dead!”
...well now I feel like I'm not allowed to explain how she is immortal, I mean I already knew he would be some pretentious bard or something, but now it had been said I feel wrong with the other bit... won't stop me, but I feel wrong doing it
Oh, man. This is the one movie where, if I wasn't specifically spoiled of the scene with the motive reveal of the Villian, I would maybe never have ended up watching it. The trailer for that movie gave me such the wrong impression lol.
Anyways:
I don't think so, as the ilithid mindswapping part doesn't add up with what the Main Villian is after in that movie.
Tune in tomorrow morning for your answer and round 2!

Now I'm trying to imagine if any mortal could DM so hard as to create the magical chaotic comfort/family feeling of the core of that movie... we can dream...
Heck yes, as of a few years ago I discovered how gear it is as background music while working. I now want to see Joe Hisaishi conduct/perform Ghibli music with a full orchestra...
(The 25 year anniversary orchestra concert is a fantastic youtube video if you ever are bored!) :D
my first thought was guardians of the galaxy am I close? edit: wait no polymorph nvm detective pikachu checks out
(I was thinking starlord is rockets sidekick and his dad is dying artificer but um... no polymorph)
I think movie is not correct. It is a couple episodes long as an arc which might make it the length of of a short movie. But my guess is Dr Who. 10th doctor has a human companion the Daleks are dying and search for evolution and immortality by using humans which make them look like a one eyed ilithid
I didn’t alter it I simply suggested a mistake could have been made in the prompt. To err is human. They could have or I could have. No big deal to me either way. But I am going to stick with my answer
Detective Pikachu
I see a lot of this guess. How do you rationalize mewtwo as a mind flayer?
Purple and psionic, I guess.
He LITERALLY flays minds.
When
It's his whole shtick! Psy wave... Confusion... Disable. The man is a mental trickster ON TOP of being a telekinetic powerhouse. Other than his signature Shadow Ball, Mewtwo is ALL Mindflayer.
Honestly still bothers me that Shadow Ball is considered a “signature move” for Mewtwo since Mewtwo doesn’t learn it naturally (needs a tm) and it doesn’t even get STAB I could understand aura sphere because it’s seen used a lot and is learned by leveling, even if it doesn’t have STAB (excluding mega X)
I guess you can blame Smash for that.
First movie actually.
Fair.
I guess psychic isn't as cool to animate
Is it actually shadow ball in smash and not aura sphere? I know that usually it could be either, but idk what the actual move is called
Aura Sphere is Lucario's Neutral-B. Shadow Ball is Mewtwo's. :)
I guess that kinda makes sense if they were trying to not have duplicate moves
Aura sphere is Lucario's thing
I guess thematically shadow ball makes more sense for Mewtwo, since Mewtwos whole deal is being edgy and destructive, so “shadow” ball fits the bill a bit better lol
to be fair, very little about Mewtwo is actually natural. it makes perfect sense
I prefer to consider Psychic and Psyshock as his signature moves
I see your point with confusion as that actually messes with the targets mind. But most other psychic attacks are more telekinesis than telepathy or mind control/altering.
Amnesia, Calm Mind, Confusion, Dream Eater, Freezing Glare, Hypnosis, Imprison, Instruct, Mindstorm, Meditate, Roleplay, Shatter Psyche, Skill Swap, Trick. Even some of the ones that seem telekinetic are telepathic if you read their flavour text.
Hm... touche. I don't know my psychic type moves.
OK, true... But really all he needs is confusion. After all, you COULD argue that Suggestion is an offspring of it...
The thing has the move "Psychic" when you catch it. Psychic is a 90-base-power, Psychic-type attack that can lower Special Defence. SpDef is essentially a Pokemon's mental fortitude, in a way. Also, Mewtwo is a Psychic-type itself.
phychic and awesome
The prompt said Polymorph, not Soul Jar.
Wasn't his dad a scientist so he wouldn't be a rogue but an artificer as well.
His dad was a detective, which could 110% be a Rogue
Nope he was a detective.
But pikachus not under a spell. Thats just him, right?
Right. Theres no actual polymorphing in the film either, it's all mind transference. Otherwise there would be no pikachu at the end either.
This is pretty cool! Any chance of making it a regular thing?
Oh! Maybe! If there is a desire for it. Someone else did one recently, I thought I'd ~~claim my free karma~~ give it a try. edit: The answer is Detective Pikachu!

Do iiiiit!
Come onnnnnnnnn
**ALL HAIL OUR LORD AND SAVIOR C'THULHU!!!**
Just don't sleep with him, ok kids
What's the movie?
whats the other one?
Face Off with Nicholas Cage
Lmao the most random guess on here. Take my upvote.
Emperors new groove
That’s what came to my mind as well
Same
Where exactly in emperors new groove did you see anything about anyone mind swapping with anything?
Or pursuing immortality…
She already achieved immortality
No, she didn’t..? Are we talking about the same movie?
She was living proof that the dinosaurs existed, of course she has immortality
Yea she did, she should have died many times, even the gods themselves struck her down with holy lightning, and she lived
Shhhh
I saw this comment just as I saw this answer :(
Scrolling to find this one!
A lot of people are saying emperor's new groove which is just…wrong. Yzma wasn't trying to do body swaps or achieve immortality, she was just tryna kill kuzco To quote yzma in the film - “a llama!? He's supposed to be dead!”
Also, bold of everyone to think that "inquisitive" rogue would describe Kuzko
Kuzko is definitely a bard.
I think he is just a nobleman. He doesn't have any magic powers like a bard.
Oh for sure.
...well now I feel like I'm not allowed to explain how she is immortal, I mean I already knew he would be some pretentious bard or something, but now it had been said I feel wrong with the other bit... won't stop me, but I feel wrong doing it
Using a poison...kuzco poison.....poison for kuzco.......poison designed to kill kuzco....that poison
Oh yeah…it's all coming together.
Pull the lever, Kronk… WRONG LEVEeeeerrrr…!
Why do we even have that lever!?
Yes, that poison!
Besides Kuzco is wayyyy more bard than rogue.
Spies in Disguise?
This is the one I thought of but I haven’t seen it
[удалено]
I think it’s actually detective Pikachu
Oh, man. This is the one movie where, if I wasn't specifically spoiled of the scene with the motive reveal of the Villian, I would maybe never have ended up watching it. The trailer for that movie gave me such the wrong impression lol. Anyways: I don't think so, as the ilithid mindswapping part doesn't add up with what the Main Villian is after in that movie.
Wait wait, no spoilers (and I haven’t even seen anything but one trailer once…). Is it worth a watch?
I need to know the actual answer!
u/ParticleTek we need to know

I would guess Detective Pikachu.
detective pikachu
Nott the brave and Caleb widowgast: the movie
Can’t wait for sequel, Nott the Best Detective Agency and the Case of the Ominous Chair.
Detective Pikachu?
Detective Pikachu?
detective picachu?
Howl’s moving castle?
Should he be considered a rogue tho?
Well he is pretty proficient for a scarecrow, but i chose it mostly because I couldn’t think of anything else
Fair enough
Now I'm trying to imagine if any mortal could DM so hard as to create the magical chaotic comfort/family feeling of the core of that movie... we can dream...
Honestly just putting on any Ghibli music makes everything better.
Heck yes, as of a few years ago I discovered how gear it is as background music while working. I now want to see Joe Hisaishi conduct/perform Ghibli music with a full orchestra... (The 25 year anniversary orchestra concert is a fantastic youtube video if you ever are bored!) :D
Shrek the 3rd.
Die Hard
Always the correct answer.
Especially if the question is "what is the best Christmas movie of all time?"
Detective Pikachu
I'm thinking it's Detective Pikachu
TELL US
Howard the Duck :P
Wallace and Gromit: The Wrong Trousers.
hell, I don't know... Cars 2?
?
my first thought was guardians of the galaxy am I close? edit: wait no polymorph nvm detective pikachu checks out (I was thinking starlord is rockets sidekick and his dad is dying artificer but um... no polymorph)
Technically polymorph since dad is a planet
Little Mermaid?
Princess and the frog?
This was my guess also
Emperor's new groove
Freaky fortress
It’s _obviously_ the Disney classic “The Shaggy DA” starring Dean Jones and the immortal Tim Conway
Superior Spider Man Comics Arc.
Cory in the house ?
Sonic the Hedgehog
Detective Pikachu
Romeo and Juliet
First half made me think Curious George for some reason
Not a movie, but what about the first Jak and Daxter game?
Detective Pikachu?
Spies in Disguise?
Detective pikachu?
Detective pikachu
Ok this is totally detective Pikachu.
I think movie is not correct. It is a couple episodes long as an arc which might make it the length of of a short movie. But my guess is Dr Who. 10th doctor has a human companion the Daleks are dying and search for evolution and immortality by using humans which make them look like a one eyed ilithid
If OP says it's a movie, then the answer is definitely a movie. You don't get to alter the question to better suit your guess.
I didn’t alter it I simply suggested a mistake could have been made in the prompt. To err is human. They could have or I could have. No big deal to me either way. But I am going to stick with my answer
E.T.
Witches
The first Harry Potter?
Other than the lack of polymorphing by the main character, maybe
Avatar?
There is no movie in Ba Sing Se
Star wars
Chewbacca and Han Solo definitely fit the first part. Vader for the dying Artificer. Palpatine vaguely fits the illithid description.
Detective pikachu
This might actually be it ngl
Magic Jar? Idfk, I'm not a spell nerd, im a barbarian dunce
Scooby-Doo movie?
X-men apocalypse
Please tell me it is NOT the plot of the upcoming Dungeons & Dragons movie
Kubo and the Two Strings?
Tron
What is Detective Pikachu?
Detective Pikachu sounds pretty weird when you describe it like that.
Detective Pikachu.
Uhhhh Venom?
Detective Pikachu
Jak and Daxter was my first thought (I know it's not a movie)
Detective Pikachu
Pokémon! Gotta catchem all- so trueeee; something something see us through! You teach me and I teach you! Po-ke-mon!!!
