he is nothing but a clone, but the professor talking to him says that he is more powerful than Mew. The professors congratulate each other for successfully creating Mewtwo. Mewtwo questions himself for the reason of living. Mewtwo thinks that he's the humans' slave, which he doesn't like. Mewtwo ends up breaking out of his tube and destroying the area. The professor says that they successfully created the world's most powerful Pokemon, then Mewtwo completely engulfs the laboratory. Giovanni, Team Rocket's leader, arrives and sees Mewtwo. He asks Mewtwo to become his partner. Mewtwo says he doesn't work with such humans, but Giovanni says that he'll treat him equally. Mewtwo agrees to this and becomes Giovanni's 'partner'.

After placing some armor on Mewtwo, Giovanni says that it'll increase Mewtwo'spower. Mewtwo challenges such Pokemonas Onix, a herd of Tauros, Alakazam, Magnemite, and Gary Oak's Arcanine and Nidoking. While resting, Mewtwo believes that he has reached his maximum power, but he still wonders what his purpose and destiny is for living. Giovanni somehow overhears this and says that Mewtwo is there to serve him. Mewtwo is angered by Giovanni's comment and says that they were partners. Giovanni says that he could never become partners with a Pokemon, and soon Mewtwo destroys the area once again. Mewtwo escapes Giovanni's headquarters by flying out, destroying his armor as well. Mewtwo goes back to the destroyed laboratory where he was created. There, Mewtwo says that he will find his purpose of living.
