&#039;&#039;&#039;Xurkitree&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: &#039;&#039;&#039;デンジュモク&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;Denjyumoku&#039;&#039;) is an {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is one of the [[Ultra Beast]]s and is codenamed &#039;&#039;&#039;UB-03 Lighting&#039;&#039;&#039; (Japanese: &#039;&#039;&#039;{{tt|ＵＢ０３　Ｌｉｇｈｔｎｉｎｇ|ユービーゼロサン　ライトニング}}&#039;&#039;&#039;) by the [[International Police]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Biology==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Xurkitree 2 SM concept art.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Xurkitree absorbing electricity from the ground in its tree-like state]]&lt;br /&gt;
Xurkitree is a very tall [[Ultra Beast]] that resembles a vaguely humanoid mass of electrical wiring. Its &amp;quot;head&amp;quot; is a white, brightly glowing, spiky electric bulb with numerous points and no visible face. Below its head is a mass of black cables for its torso and limbs; there are white bands resembling {{wp|cable tie|zip ties}} throughout its body as well. Its arms have ties where its shoulders, elbows, and wrists would be. The upper arms have two cables, while the lower have three. At the ends of its arms are copper structures that resemble hands, each with six flat &amp;quot;fingers&amp;quot;. The legs have ties at the hips, knees, and ankles and are composed of four cables fused together for the whole length. The feet have four toes possessing &amp;quot;claws&amp;quot; of exposed copper; each foot has two fused toes pointing forward and two separate toes pointing backward. Finally, its tail has three ties and four cables, one of them loose in two sections. The tail ends in what resembles a three-pronged plug.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Xurkitree live in another world named [[Ultra Plant]]. There, many have been seen unmoving, with their arms and legs stuck to the ground, similar to trees as they absorb electricity from the ground. Xurkitree vary greatly in size, from being a little bigger than a [[human]] to being the size of a mountain. Because this Ultra Beast reportedly raided a power plant, it is speculated to sustain itself with electricity. Witnesses claim that its entire body crackles with astonishing electrical power. According to [[Wicke]] from the [[Aether Foundation]], Xurkitree&#039;s most distinctive feature is an organ that can generate power. This UB&#039;s bodily makeup is highly reminiscent of electric wiring, thus enabling it to conduct electricity with great efficiency. It can discharge as much as a million volts of power at a time. When it begins to run out of power, it stabs its legs and tail into the soil, entering a treelike state as it absorbs electricity from the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wicke also claims that like all Ultra Beasts, Xurkitree stores [[Z-Power]], the same energy possessed by [[Totem Pokémon]], within its body, which takes the form of a red, flaring aura&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[[Wicke]], {{g|Sun and Moon}}:&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;When the UBs pass through the Ultra Wormhole, they are bathed in a great deal of this energy and likely store it within their bodies.&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;. Xurkitree and {{p|Blacephalon}} have a rivalry with each other, often competing in contests to see who can shine the brightest as depicted in &#039;&#039;[[SM078|Twirling with a Bang!]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

====Major appearances====&lt;br /&gt;
====={{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Xurkitree|Xurkitree (anime)}}=====&lt;br /&gt;
Xurkitree debuted in &#039;&#039;[[SM078|Twirling with a Bang!]]&#039;&#039;, where it first emerged from an [[Ultra Wormhole]] on [[Melemele Island]]. The next day, the [[Ultra Guardians]] set out to return it home, only for it to wind up clashing with a {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Blacephalon}}. After distracting both Xurkitree and Blacephalon, the Ultra Guardians managed to weaken and {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} both Pokémon at the same time, allowing them to be sent back home. It reappeared in a flashback in &#039;&#039;[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

===GOTCHA!===&lt;br /&gt;
A Xurkitree briefly appeared as a silhouette in [[GOTCHA!]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==In the manga==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Xurkitree Adventures.png|thumb|150px|Xurkitree in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
===Pokémon Adventures===&lt;br /&gt;
Xurkitree debuted as a silhouette in &#039;&#039;[[PASM07|The Final Match and a Surprising Finale!]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Xurkitree physically debuted in &#039;&#039;[[PASM09|True Identity and the Totem Pokémon of Brooklet Hill]]&#039;&#039;, where it was seen emerging from an [[Ultra Wormhole]] above [[Lush Jungle]] while battling {{p|Tapu Lele}}. {{adv|Moon}} attempted to capture it with her {{i|Poké Ball}} arrow, but she failed and it retreated back into the wormhole. Xurkitree reappeared in flashbacks from &#039;&#039;[[PASM11|Homecoming and the Brilliant Professional Golfer]]&#039;&#039; to &#039;&#039;[[PASM14|Flash and Cosmog&#039;s Secret]]&#039;&#039;, as well as &#039;&#039;[[PASM18|Confusion and Monsters from Another World]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

A Xurkitree appeared in &#039;&#039;[[PASM19|Truth and the Mastermind Behind Team Skull]]&#039;&#039;, where it came through another Ultra Wormhole opened by [[Guzma]] in [[Po Town]]. Like the other [[Ultra Beast]]s summoned by Guzma, Xurkitree later escaped the town and started wreaking havoc around [[Ula&#039;ula Island]]. It reappeared in &#039;&#039;[[PASM21|Thieving and Boss Crabominable]]&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;[[PASM23|Battle in Vast Poni Canyon]]&#039;&#039;, and &#039;&#039;[[PASM24|Play the Melody That Echoes in the Altar]]&#039;&#039;; and in a flashback in &#039;&#039;[[PASM20|An Urgent Task and the Capture of an Ultra Beast]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==In the TCG==&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Xurkitree (TCG)}}&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
* Xurkitree has the highest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.&lt;br /&gt;
* In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], Xurkitree is the only Ultra Beast with a single type.&lt;br /&gt;
* In Pokémon Sun and Moon, Xurkitree has a catch rate of 30 and a base [[experience]] yield of 114.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Origin===&lt;br /&gt;
Xurkitree appears to be based on sparking electrical wires and power-lines. The three prongs on the end of its tail resemble a power plug, while its long &amp;quot;fingers&amp;quot; resemble copper wiring. Its design also shares some small aspects of a tree, especially {{wp|Christmas tree}}s; its head resembles a {{wp|Moravian star}} or a {{wp|tree-topper}}, while the white bands on its limbs may be based on {{wp|Christmas lights|fairy lights}}, though they could also refer to {{wp|cable tie}}s, which are used to hold multiple cables together.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The design of Xurkitree may also be based on a visual pun of the term &amp;quot;{{wp|Live wire (electricity)|live wire}}&amp;quot;; as in &amp;quot;a wire carrying an electric current&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;a wire that is literally alive&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Name origin====&lt;br /&gt;
Xurkitree may be a combination of a corruption of &#039;&#039;circuitry&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;tree&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Denjyumoku may be a combination of 電気 &#039;&#039;denki&#039;&#039; (electricity) or 電磁 &#039;&#039;denji&#039;&#039; (electromagnetism) and 樹木 &#039;&#039;jumoku&#039;&#039; (tree).&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Absol&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: &#039;&#039;&#039;アブソル&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;Absol&#039;&#039;) is a {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Absol can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into two forms:&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mega Absol&#039;&#039;&#039; using the [[Absolite]].&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mega Absol Z&#039;&#039;&#039; using the [[Absolite Z]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Absol Z was introduced in the [[Mega Dimension]] DLC for {{g|Legends: Z-A}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Biology==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Astrid Absol Megahorn.png|left|200px|thumb|Absol expanding its horn]]&lt;br /&gt;
Absol is a quadrupedal, mammalian {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a primarily white feline-like body with some dark blue coloration. It has a ruff around its neck and chest and a tuft on the top of its head adorned with a single blue-black oval. Between the dark fur, the curvature of the white fur on its head, and the positioning of its horn, Absol&#039;s face vaguely resembles a wu wei symbol. It has a humanoid face with almond-shaped, red eyes, a scythe-like tail, and a scythe-shaped horn on the side of its head. Its broad feet are equipped with three claws each, and dewclaw-like spikes protrude from the heels of its hind legs and the elbows of its front legs. It walks with a pacing gait like that of a bear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Absol lives in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains}} far from civilization, and it rarely ventures down from its alpine home. Using its horn, Absol is able to sense even subtle changes in the sky and the land to predict when a disaster will occur and will try to warn people when one is approaching. In addition to its divination powers, Absol&#039;s horn can be {{m|Megahorn|extended and used in battle}}. Absol is also known to protect fields from natural disasters as well. This often has the unfortunate effect of Absol itself being blamed for the disaster, notably by the elderly. The hatred for Absol was started years ago by superstitions surrounding about it. Despite this, others are interested in its ability to predict disaster. Absol has been referred to as a &#039;&#039;bringer of doom&#039;&#039;. Absol can move as swiftly as the wind. Absol is said to have a lifespan of up to 100 years. As mentioned in the [[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]], the powers of Absol&#039;s horn remains active even when it sleeps. Due to this, Absol can strongly detect danger even when not awake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Forms===&lt;br /&gt;
Absol has 2 Mega Evolved forms: Mega Absol and Mega Absol Z.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Mega Absol====&lt;br /&gt;
Absol can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Absol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Mega Absol, its fur is longer overall, and the increased energy coursing through its body makes the fur at the back of its mane stand on end so that it appears to have wings.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The spikes on its heels and elbows grow larger, and the fur in these areas becomes longer as well. Its sickle-shaped horn widens, while an additional, smaller horn appears on the opposite side of its head. Its tail now has a more saw-like shape, and the oval marking on its forehead is now a rounded triangle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Absol emits a fearsome aura that has been known to kill fainthearted people from shock. It directs this aura at its opponents by beating its &amp;quot;wings&amp;quot;, which are not capable of flight. However, Absol apparently detests assuming this form, as it normally dislikes fighting in the first place.  Mega Absol can create wind attacks to launch at foes and dark shockwaves around itself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Mega Absol Z====&lt;br /&gt;
As Mega Absol Z, its white fur turns dark blue, and fur on the left side of its head grows longer, covering its left eye. Its formerly dark blue skin turns a grey-blue shade. The oval marking on its forehead turns into the same rounded triangle that its other Mega Evolution has. Its sickle-shaped horn transforms into a more angular, z-like shape. The additional small horn on its head, spikes on the back of its legs, and its tail are also more angular than those found on Mega Absol. Its claws are notably more straight and appear sharper than its other Mega Evolved form. Three small tufts of fur on the left side behind the ruff on its neck are tipped with a red color. One of the most notable differences can be seen in the large dark blue and red tuft of fur on its right side, which Mega Absol Z can manipulate into clawlike shapes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Using the fur that it has made into sharp, clawlike shapes, Mega Absol Z cuts down its foes with a single blow as an act of kindness, preventing any prolonged suffering.&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Astrid Mega Absol.png|thumb|250px|Mega Absol in {{aniseries|XY}}]]&lt;br /&gt;
===Main series===&lt;br /&gt;
====Major appearances====&lt;br /&gt;
=====[[Goh&#039;s Absol]]=====&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[JN064|Absol Absolved!]]&#039;&#039;, [[Goh]] caught an Absol to save it from being hit by an eruption of boiling water on [[Mt. Chimney]]. It has since made further appearances in {{aniseries|JN}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====Other=====&lt;br /&gt;
Absol debuted in &#039;&#039;[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]&#039;&#039;, where it showed up to take {{OBP|Jirachi|M06}} back to [[Forina]]. However, Absol wasn&#039;t evil as {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were initially led to believe, and it helped Jirachi once it returned to Forina.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Absol made its animated series debut in &#039;&#039;[[AG107|Absol-ute Disaster]]&#039;&#039;. The people of a town were blaming Absol for all of the bad things that were happening to their town during the past month. Ash, his friends, and {{OBP|Nicky|AG107}} went out to verify the accusations. They found out that Absol was actually warning the town about a flood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
* Mega Absol Z has the highest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all {{t|Dark}}- and {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.&lt;br /&gt;
* Absol&#039;s appearances in many games support its description of appearing where disasters occur:&lt;br /&gt;
** In its debut in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, it appears on {{rt|120|Hoenn}}, shortly before the [[Blue Orb]]{{sup/3|R}}/[[Red Orb]]{{sup/3|S}} is stolen from [[Mt. Pyre]] by [[Team Magma]]{{sup/3|R}}/[[Team Aqua]]{{sup/3|S}}.&lt;br /&gt;
*** Notably, Absol&#039;s Pokédex entries in these games specify that it can sense natural disasters, such as those caused by {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} when they&#039;re awakened by the aforementioned [[villainous team]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
** In {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, Absol appears on {{rt|213|Sinnoh}}, which is close to [[Lake Valor]], which was drained by Team Galactic.&lt;br /&gt;
** In {{v2|Platinum}}, Absol appears on [[Mount Coronet|Mt. Coronet]] in places that one can first access when heading to the [[Spear Pillar]], before Giratina is released by Team Galactic.&lt;br /&gt;
** In {{2v2|Black|White}}, Absol can be found at the [[Giant Chasm]], a place where disasters are said to befall Trainers, and {{rt|13|Unova}}, 13 being known as an unlucky number. {{game3|Black and White|Two years later|s 2}}, the Giant Chasm is where Team Plasma makes their stand.&lt;br /&gt;
** In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}}, Absol can be found in [[Tapu Village]], which was destroyed years earlier by {{p|Tapu Bulu}}.&lt;br /&gt;
** In [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]], Absol can be found in the [[Altru Building]] and [[Altru Tower]], from which [[Team Dim Sun]] plans to take control of all Pokémon in the region.&lt;br /&gt;
** In [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]], Absol is the subject of the first [[Rogue Mega Evolution]] the player encounters. This very same Absol also joins the player after being saved and is the only Pokémon affected by Rogue Mega Evolution to do so. Another Absol is also the very first Rogue Mega Evolution encountered in the [[Mega Dimension]] DLC.&lt;br /&gt;
* Absol was the last answer to the [[Pokémon Trainer&#039;s Choice]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Absol is the only non-[[Legendary Pokémon]] featured on the box art for {{g|Box Ruby &amp;amp; Sapphire}}.&lt;br /&gt;
* Absol and {{p|Togepi}} are the only non-{{type|Flying}} Pokémon that can have {{a|Super Luck}} as their Ability.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mega Absol Z is the only Z Mega Evolution to gain another type when it Mega Evolves.&lt;br /&gt;
* Due to Mega Absol Z being introduced after the introduction of the {{type|Fairy}}, Mega Absol Z is the only Dark/Ghost-type Pokémon to never have had no weaknesses at one point.&lt;br /&gt;
===Origin===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Absol}}&lt;br /&gt;
Absol may be based on the {{wp|Bai Ze}} (白澤) of {{wp|Chinese mythology}}, whose name literally translates to &amp;quot;white marsh.&amp;quot; It is generally described as a white beast, distinguished by having one or two horns on its head. Considered to be an intelligent beast, Bai Ze is gifted with the ability to understand human speech and the knowledge on the forms and habits of 11,520 types of supernatural creatures in the world. In legend, Bai Ze shared its knowledge to the Yellow Emperor, which was subsequently compiled in a book called &#039;&#039;Bai Ze Tu&#039;&#039;. Few of its supposed fragments survive today. In Japan, it is known as the &#039;&#039;hakutaku&#039;&#039; (白沢) and is said to resemble a cat or lion. In a related legend, a similar creature known as the &#039;&#039;kutabe&#039;&#039; predicted that a plague would sweep through the {{wp|Toyama Prefecture}} of Japan. It is also sometimes said to have an extra eye on their head or back, which may be represented by the oval that appears on Absol&#039;s forehead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Absol&#039;s head may be modeled after a &#039;&#039;{{wp|Taijitu}}&#039;&#039; symbol. Absol&#039;s humanized face and feline appearance may also be a homage to the {{wp|sphinx}}. Its ruff resembling long human hair and a male lion&#039;s mane and the white fur on the top of its head loosely resembling the headpiece of an Egyptian sphinx also suggests this. Its scythe-shaped tail and horn resemblance the Western personified depiction of {{wp|Death (personification)|Death}}, who is related to destiny and disaster. It may have also been inspired by the {{wp|black cat}} superstition. Its feline appearance and the fact that it is usually seen in mountains resemble the natural behavior of felines such as the {{wp|snow leopard}} and the {{wp|cougar}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Absol&#039;s wings and elongated fur give it the appearance of an {{wp|angel}}, with its wings also being reminiscent of Greek portrayals of sphinxes and furthering the connection to sphinxes noted above. It also resembles a {{wp|lamassu}}, an Assyrian creature with a human&#039;s head, wings, and sometimes with the body of a lion. The lamassu was a protective spirit, much like how Absol attempts to warn people of danger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Absol Z&#039;s darker design, as well as its newfound Ghost type, emphasize Absol&#039;s resemblance to Western depictions of Death. Its design being similar to Mega Absol, which has a more angelic appearance, might allude to the concept of [[wp:Personifications_of_death#In_Abrahamic_religions|angels of death]] such as [[wp:Azrael|Azrael]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Name origin====&lt;br /&gt;
Absol may be derived from &#039;&#039;absolute&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;{{wp|absolution}}&#039;&#039; (setting free from guilt), as well as 危ない &#039;&#039;abunai&#039;&#039; (dangerous) and possibly 物騒 &#039;&#039;bussō&#039;&#039; (dangerous) or 恐る &#039;&#039;osoru&#039;&#039; (to fear). It may also be a combination of the Latin prefix &#039;&#039;ab-&#039;&#039; (away from) and &#039;&#039;sol&#039;&#039; (Latin for sun).&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Absol&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: &#039;&#039;&#039;アブソル&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;Absol&#039;&#039;) is a {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Absol can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into two forms:&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mega Absol&#039;&#039;&#039; using the [[Absolite]].&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mega Absol Z&#039;&#039;&#039; using the [[Absolite Z]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Absol Z was introduced in the [[Mega Dimension]] DLC for {{g|Legends: Z-A}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Biology==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Astrid Absol Megahorn.png|left|200px|thumb|Absol expanding its horn]]&lt;br /&gt;
Absol is a quadrupedal, mammalian {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a primarily white body with some dark blue coloration. It has a ruff around its neck and chest and a tuft on the top of its head adorned with a single blue-black oval. Between the dark fur, the curvature of the white fur on its head, and the positioning of its horn, Absol&#039;s face vaguely resembles a wu wei symbol. It has a humanoid face with almond-shaped, red eyes, a scythe-like tail, and a scythe-shaped horn on the side of its head. Its broad feet are equipped with three claws each, and dewclaw-like spikes protrude from the heels of its hind legs and the elbows of its front legs. It walks with a pacing gait like that of a bear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Absol lives in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains}} far from civilization, and it rarely ventures down from its alpine home. Using its horn, Absol is able to sense even subtle changes in the sky and the land to predict when a disaster will occur and will try to warn people when one is approaching. In addition to its divination powers, Absol&#039;s horn can be {{m|Megahorn|extended and used in battle}}. Absol is also known to protect fields from natural disasters as well. This often has the unfortunate effect of Absol itself being blamed for the disaster, notably by the elderly. The hatred for Absol was started years ago by superstitions surrounding about it. Despite this, others are interested in its ability to predict disaster. Absol has been referred to as a &#039;&#039;bringer of doom&#039;&#039;. Absol can move as swiftly as the wind. Absol is said to have a lifespan of up to 100 years. As mentioned in the [[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]], the powers of Absol&#039;s horn remains active even when it sleeps. Due to this, Absol can strongly detect danger even when not awake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Forms===&lt;br /&gt;
Absol has 2 Mega Evolved forms: Mega Absol and Mega Absol Z.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Mega Absol====&lt;br /&gt;
Absol can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Absol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Mega Absol, its fur is longer overall, and the increased energy coursing through its body makes the fur at the back of its mane stand on end so that it appears to have wings.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The spikes on its heels and elbows grow larger, and the fur in these areas becomes longer as well. Its sickle-shaped horn widens, while an additional, smaller horn appears on the opposite side of its head. Its tail now has a more saw-like shape, and the oval marking on its forehead is now a rounded triangle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Absol emits a fearsome aura that has been known to kill fainthearted people from shock. It directs this aura at its opponents by beating its &amp;quot;wings&amp;quot;, which are not capable of flight. However, Absol apparently detests assuming this form, as it normally dislikes fighting in the first place.  Mega Absol can create wind attacks to launch at foes and dark shockwaves around itself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Mega Absol Z====&lt;br /&gt;
As Mega Absol Z, its white fur turns dark blue, and fur on the left side of its head grows longer, covering its left eye. Its formerly dark blue skin turns a grey-blue shade. The oval marking on its forehead turns into the same rounded triangle that its other Mega Evolution has. Its sickle-shaped horn transforms into a more angular, z-like shape. The additional small horn on its head, spikes on the back of its legs, and its tail are also more angular than those found on Mega Absol. Its claws are notably more straight and appear sharper than its other Mega Evolved form. Three small tufts of fur on the left side behind the ruff on its neck are tipped with a red color. One of the most notable differences can be seen in the large dark blue and red tuft of fur on its right side, which Mega Absol Z can manipulate into clawlike shapes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Using the fur that it has made into sharp, clawlike shapes, Mega Absol Z cuts down its foes with a single blow as an act of kindness, preventing any prolonged suffering.&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Astrid Mega Absol.png|thumb|250px|Mega Absol in {{aniseries|XY}}]]&lt;br /&gt;
===Main series===&lt;br /&gt;
====Major appearances====&lt;br /&gt;
=====[[Goh&#039;s Absol]]=====&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[JN064|Absol Absolved!]]&#039;&#039;, [[Goh]] caught an Absol to save it from being hit by an eruption of boiling water on [[Mt. Chimney]]. It has since made further appearances in {{aniseries|JN}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====Other=====&lt;br /&gt;
Absol debuted in &#039;&#039;[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]&#039;&#039;, where it showed up to take {{OBP|Jirachi|M06}} back to [[Forina]]. However, Absol wasn&#039;t evil as {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were initially led to believe, and it helped Jirachi once it returned to Forina.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Absol made its animated series debut in &#039;&#039;[[AG107|Absol-ute Disaster]]&#039;&#039;. The people of a town were blaming Absol for all of the bad things that were happening to their town during the past month. Ash, his friends, and {{OBP|Nicky|AG107}} went out to verify the accusations. They found out that Absol was actually warning the town about a flood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[AG167|What I Did for Love!]]&#039;&#039;, {{OBP|Mollie|AG167}} used an Absol during the second round of the [[Gardenia Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]]. It battled [[Brock&#039;s Marshtomp]] and lost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[AG180|May, We Harley Drew&#039;d Ya!]]&#039;&#039;, [[Drew]] revealed he {{pkmn2|caught}} and trained an Absol for the [[Kanto Grand Festival]]. It was first used in the [[Appeal|Appeals Round]]. In &#039;&#039;[[AG182|Thinning the Hoard!]]&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;[[AG182|Channeling the Battle Zone!]]&#039;&#039;, it and {{p|Flygon}} were used during a [[Double Battle|two-on-two]] [[Contest Battle]] against {{an|May}}, who used {{TP|May|Combusken}} and {{TP|May|Squirtle}}. In the end, Drew lost too many points, resulting in May advancing to the next round.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the original timeline of &#039;&#039;[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]&#039;&#039;, a {{m|Hypnosis|hypnotized}} [[Damos]] commanded four Absol to attack {{OBP|Arceus|M12}} with {{m|Shock Wave}}. When Ash and {{ashfr}} traveled to the past to prevent this, [[Marcus]], the one responsible for hypnotizing Damos, managed to use the Absol again to attack Arceus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]&#039;&#039;, [[Astrid]] used an Absol that can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Absol against [[Alain]] and {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}, but it was defeated. In &#039;&#039;[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]&#039;&#039;, it was used in a battle against {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Hawlucha}}, which resulted in Absol winning. In &#039;&#039;[[XY126|Valuable Experience for All!]]&#039;&#039;, it had a rematch with {{p|Hawlucha}} during the [[Lumiose Conference]], which resulted in a loss for Absol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[XY028|The Bonds of Evolution!]]&#039;&#039;, {{OBP|Magnus|XY028}} used an Absol to battle [[Diantha]] and her {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}}, but it was soon defeated by Gardevoir&#039;s {{m|Moonblast}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[SM053|Rescuing the Unwilling!]]&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;[[SM054|10,000,000 Reasons to Fight!]]&#039;&#039;, a {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Nihilego}}-possessed {{an|Lusamine}} ordered her Absol to attack Ash and {{ashcl}}. {{an|Gladion}} stayed to battle Absol with his Pokémon before Nihilego was defeated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Minor appearances====&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty]]&#039;&#039;, [[J]] and [[J&#039;s henchmen|her henchmen]] captured an Absol after [[Ash&#039;s Pikachu]], [[Melodi]]&#039;s {{p|Gardevoir}}, and {{TRT}}&#039;s {{MTR}} got stolen. Absol was eventually returned to its rightful owner after Ash, Team Rocket, and Melodi reunited with their Pokémon and some of J&#039;s minions were arrested.&lt;br /&gt;

==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
* Mega Absol Z has the highest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all {{t|Dark}}- and {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.&lt;br /&gt;
* Absol&#039;s appearances in many games support its description of appearing where disasters occur:&lt;br /&gt;
** In its debut in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, it appears on {{rt|120|Hoenn}}, shortly before the [[Blue Orb]]{{sup/3|R}}/[[Red Orb]]{{sup/3|S}} is stolen from [[Mt. Pyre]] by [[Team Magma]]{{sup/3|R}}/[[Team Aqua]]{{sup/3|S}}.&lt;br /&gt;
*** Notably, Absol&#039;s Pokédex entries in these games specify that it can sense natural disasters, such as those caused by {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} when they&#039;re awakened by the aforementioned [[villainous team]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
** In {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, Absol appears on {{rt|213|Sinnoh}}, which is close to [[Lake Valor]], which was drained by Team Galactic.&lt;br /&gt;
** In {{v2|Platinum}}, Absol appears on [[Mount Coronet|Mt. Coronet]] in places that one can first access when heading to the [[Spear Pillar]], before Giratina is released by Team Galactic.&lt;br /&gt;
** In {{2v2|Black|White}}, Absol can be found at the [[Giant Chasm]], a place where disasters are said to befall Trainers, and {{rt|13|Unova}}, 13 being known as an unlucky number. {{game3|Black and White|Two years later|s 2}}, the Giant Chasm is where Team Plasma makes their stand.&lt;br /&gt;
** In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}}, Absol can be found in [[Tapu Village]], which was destroyed years earlier by {{p|Tapu Bulu}}.&lt;br /&gt;
** In [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]], Absol can be found in the [[Altru Building]] and [[Altru Tower]], from which [[Team Dim Sun]] plans to take control of all Pokémon in the region.&lt;br /&gt;
** In [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]], Absol is the subject of the first [[Rogue Mega Evolution]] the player encounters. This very same Absol also joins the player after being saved and is the only Pokémon affected by Rogue Mega Evolution to do so. Another Absol is also the very first Rogue Mega Evolution encountered in the [[Mega Dimension]] DLC.&lt;br /&gt;
* Absol was the last answer to the [[Pokémon Trainer&#039;s Choice]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Absol is the only non-[[Legendary Pokémon]] featured on the box art for {{g|Box Ruby &amp;amp; Sapphire}}.&lt;br /&gt;
* Absol and {{p|Togepi}} are the only non-{{type|Flying}} Pokémon that can have {{a|Super Luck}} as their Ability.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mega Absol Z is the only Z Mega Evolution to gain another type when it Mega Evolves.&lt;br /&gt;
* Due to Mega Absol Z being introduced after the introduction of the {{type|Fairy}}, Mega Absol Z is the only Dark/Ghost-type Pokémon to never have had no weaknesses at one point.&lt;br /&gt;
===Origin===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Absol}}&lt;br /&gt;
Absol may be based on the {{wp|Bai Ze}} (白澤) of {{wp|Chinese mythology}}, whose name literally translates to &amp;quot;white marsh.&amp;quot; It is generally described as a white beast, distinguished by having one or two horns on its head. Considered to be an intelligent beast, Bai Ze is gifted with the ability to understand human speech and the knowledge on the forms and habits of 11,520 types of supernatural creatures in the world. In legend, Bai Ze shared its knowledge to the Yellow Emperor, which was subsequently compiled in a book called &#039;&#039;Bai Ze Tu&#039;&#039;. Few of its supposed fragments survive today. In Japan, it is known as the &#039;&#039;hakutaku&#039;&#039; (白沢) and is said to resemble a cat or lion. In a related legend, a similar creature known as the &#039;&#039;kutabe&#039;&#039; predicted that a plague would sweep through the {{wp|Toyama Prefecture}} of Japan. It is also sometimes said to have an extra eye on their head or back, which may be represented by the oval that appears on Absol&#039;s forehead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Absol&#039;s head may be modeled after a &#039;&#039;{{wp|Taijitu}}&#039;&#039; symbol. Absol&#039;s humanized face and feline appearance may also be a homage to the {{wp|sphinx}}. Its ruff resembling long human hair and a male lion&#039;s mane and the white fur on the top of its head loosely resembling the headpiece of an Egyptian sphinx also suggests this. Its scythe-shaped tail and horn resemblance the Western personified depiction of {{wp|Death (personification)|Death}}, who is related to destiny and disaster. It may have also been inspired by the {{wp|black cat}} superstition. Its feline appearance and the fact that it is usually seen in mountains resemble the natural behavior of felines such as the {{wp|snow leopard}} and the {{wp|cougar}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Absol&#039;s wings and elongated fur give it the appearance of an {{wp|angel}}, with its wings also being reminiscent of Greek portrayals of sphinxes and furthering the connection to sphinxes noted above. It also resembles a {{wp|lamassu}}, an Assyrian creature with a human&#039;s head, wings, and sometimes with the body of a lion. The lamassu was a protective spirit, much like how Absol attempts to warn people of danger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Absol Z&#039;s darker design, as well as its newfound Ghost type, emphasize Absol&#039;s resemblance to Western depictions of Death. Its design being similar to Mega Absol, which has a more angelic appearance, might allude to the concept of [[wp:Personifications_of_death#In_Abrahamic_religions|angels of death]] such as [[wp:Azrael|Azrael]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Name origin====&lt;br /&gt;
Absol may be derived from &#039;&#039;absolute&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;{{wp|absolution}}&#039;&#039; (setting free from guilt), as well as 危ない &#039;&#039;abunai&#039;&#039; (dangerous) and possibly 物騒 &#039;&#039;bussō&#039;&#039; (dangerous) or 恐る &#039;&#039;osoru&#039;&#039; (to fear). It may also be a combination of the Latin prefix &#039;&#039;ab-&#039;&#039; (away from) and &#039;&#039;sol&#039;&#039; (Latin for sun).&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Mewtwo&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: &#039;&#039;&#039;ミュウツー&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;Mewtwo&#039;&#039;) is a {{type|Psychic}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation I]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While it is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Mewtwo can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into two different forms:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mega Mewtwo X&#039;&#039;&#039; using [[Mewtwonite X]].&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mega Mewtwo Y&#039;&#039;&#039; using [[Mewtwonite Y]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is associated with {{p|Mew}}, and thus they are collectively referred to as the [[Mew duo]] by fans.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Biology==&lt;br /&gt;
Mewtwo is an [[artificial Pokémon]]. It is a bipedal, humanoid {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with some feline features. Its body is primarily gray with a long, purple tail and a large purple underbelly. On top of its head are two short, blunt, ear-like horns, and it has purple eyes. A tube extends from the back of its skull to the top of its spine, bypassing its neck. It has a defined chest and shoulders, which resemble a breastplate. The three digits on each hand and foot have spherical tips. Its tail is thick at the base but thins before ending in a small bulb.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to [[Pokémon Mansion journals|journals]] found in [[Kanto]]&#039;s {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}}, after discovering the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Mew}} and gathering some of its DNA, [[Mr. Fuji]] used it in his mansion to create Mewtwo, a modified clone of Mew with the goal to making it the most powerful Pokémon of all. It was held and studied in the mansion, where it acquired extreme power and a vicious disposition after enduring horrific gene-splicing experiments. It eventually broke free and fled the Mansion, destroying it in the process. It is widely known as one of the most powerful Pokémon in existence and is said to have the most savage heart among all Pokémon, lacking compassion and {{a|Pressure|striking fear into its enemy with cold, glowing eyes}}. Mewtwo conserves energy by remaining motionless in order to unleash its full power in battle. Because it was engineered to be the ultimate opponent in battle, it can only think of defeating its foes. Though rarely seen in the wild, it is said to be resting in [[Cerulean Cave|dark]] {{kal|Unknown Dungeon|caves}} somewhere.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]&#039;&#039;, {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}} was shown to be capable of levitation, mind control, memory erasure, telepathy, teleporting others to another location, and the creation of powerful storms. However, it was [[Mewtwo Returns|later shown]] to be caring, protective, and even altruistic. As shown in [[POKÉMON Detective Pikachu]], Mewtwo can also transfer a [[human]]&#039;s soul into a Pokémon&#039;s body provided that said Pokémon is in a crazed state, causing this person to gain control of the Pokémon&#039;s body and abilities. {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01|It}} possesses a rivalry with {{OBP|Mew|M01}}. As seen in &#039;&#039;[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]&#039;&#039;, {{OBP|Mewtwo|M16}} can breathe in outer space.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, {{adv|Mewtwo}}&#039;s creation wasn&#039;t possible with the amount of {{adv|Mew}}&#039;s cells gathered, so to complete it, [[human]] cells were used instead, specifically from the [[Team Rocket]] [[Team Rocket scientist|scientist]] [[Blaine]]. Due to Blaine possessing some of Mewtwo&#039;s cells as well, the two became linked, which granted Blaine to ability to track its whereabouts at the cost of slowly taking his life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mewtwo is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Psystrike}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;Shadow Mewtwo&lt;br /&gt;
A unique {{pkmn2|variant}} of Mewtwo, called [[Shadow Mewtwo]], is very similar to standard Mewtwo, but with dark gray skin, a dark gray tail with a yellowish orange tip, and a shard of [[Ferrum#Shadow Synergy Stone|Shadow Synergy Stone]] coming out of its shoulder. In the past, Anne was almost possessed by a Shadow Synergy Stone but was saved by Mewtwo, whom the Shadow Synergy Stone took control of and merged with instead. Under the stone&#039;s influence, Shadow Mewtwo travelled around [[Ferrum]], draining Gaia Power from other normal [[Ferrum#Synergy Stones|Synergy Stones]], which continuously increases its power.&lt;br /&gt;

|}&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Forms===&lt;br /&gt;
Mewtwo has two forms. Mewtwo can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into either Mega Mewtwo X or Mega Mewtwo Y. Additionally, Shadow Mewtwo can Mega Evolve into Mega Shadow Mewtwo X by using [[Ferrum#Synergy Burst|Synergy Burst]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;Mega Mewtwo X&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Mega Mewtwo X arm.png|thumb|left|250px|Mega Mewtwo X stretching its arm.]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Mega Evolution|Mega]] Mewtwo X is larger and bulkier than its normal state. The horns on its head are longer and extend from brow-like ridges on its forehead. Additionally, the horns are now pointed and curve upward. It now has two tubes behind its neck, its eyes are light blue, and it has large, purple ridges over its shoulders fusing behind its back as a single, hump-like growth. Its forearms and legs grow much bulkier and gain two protruding ridges resembling veins. Its hands and feet grow bigger, with longer, more prehensile digits. Its tail is slightly shorter and stiffer than before and has a curled tip. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Due to the Mega Evolution, Mega Mewtwo X&#039;s physical power received a formidable growth. Its muscles are augmented with psychic power, giving it a grip strength of one ton and the ability to sprint 100 meters in two seconds. When using moves in battle, it is shown to be able to stretch its arms and legs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;Mega Shadow Mewtwo X&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Shadow Mewtwo X greatly resembles its normal counterpart, though it maintains its dark gray coloring due to the influence of the Shadow Synergy Stone. The glowing yellow-orange of the stone&#039;s infection is no longer confined to its tail, spreading to both of its shoulder growths, its arm ridges, and the tips of its ears. Additionally, the Y-shaped line running across its body (now including its legs) glows the same yellowish-orange color.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like its counterpart, Mega Shadow Mewtwo X can stretch its arms and legs. This unique form is achieved when Shadow Mewtwo uses both [[Ferrum#Synergy Burst|Shadow Synergy Burst]] and collected Gaia Power build up. The transformation can be undone if Shadow Synergy Stone is separated from Mewtwo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;Mega Mewtwo Y&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Mewtwo Y is smaller and lighter, losing its long tail, underbelly, and the tube behind its neck. However, it grows a long, purple appendage with a curled tip from the back of its head that is similar to its previous form&#039;s tail and also slightly resembles [[Jessie|Jessie&#039;s]] hairstyle. On its head, it has two pointed, backward-curving spikes and a half-ring structure connecting to the base of each and crossing over the top of its head. Its eyes are now red and slightly larger. The digits on its hands and feet are now purple and more bulbous and the middle toe is longer than the others. A bumpy ridge similar to a {{wp|sternum}} replaces the breastplate structure on its chest, but this form is still largely smoother than the other two. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite its decreased size, it has phenomenal mental power and is capable of smashing buildings with a mere thought. Mega Mewtwo Y stays constantly in the air due to its smaller size and increased power.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://web.archive.org/web/20160406143554/http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Mega%20Mewtwo%20X Mega Mewtwo Y&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Game data==&lt;br /&gt;
===NPC appearances===&lt;br /&gt;
{{spoilers}}&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Pokémon Stadium]]: [[Pokémon Stadium#Vs. Mewtwo|Mewtwo]] is the player&#039;s final opponent.&lt;br /&gt;
* {{g|Pinball}}: Mewtwo appears in its own bonus stage, where the player must attempt to hit it 25 times within the two-minute time limit to win. Playing this stage repeatedly is the fastest way to build a high score, due to the extremely high point output of 50,000,000 points per hit earned by hitting Mewtwo.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]]: Mewtwo is the final boss of the game, battled once under the control of the evil [[Edward]] &amp;quot;The Thinker&amp;quot;, and again under [[Purple Eyes]]. Before this, it is seen charging up in [[Kasa]]&#039;s laboratory in the [[Sky Fortress]].&lt;br /&gt;
* {{g|Puzzle League}}: {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}} reveals that it organized the Puzzle League to find a worthy foe and clones {{Ash}}&#039;s Pokémon. In the Very Hard and Super Hard modes, Mewtwo is the final opponent.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]]: Mewtwo sleeps in the depths of the [[Western Cave]]. His slumber is interrupted by the arrival of Blastoise and [[Team A.C.T.|Charizard]], whom he defeats without an issue. Once the player confronts him at the deepest parts of the cave, it is possible to recruit Mewtwo.&lt;br /&gt;
* {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}: Mewtwo appears, having [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] into Mega Mewtwo Y in order to telepathically link up the Pokémon of the world together to try and stop the [[Tree of Life]]&#039;s ascent into space. Like all the other [[Legendary Pokémon]] gathered for this effort, Mewtwo is turned into stone when [[Dark Matter]] is able to regenerate itself. After Dark Matter&#039;s defeat, Mewtwo stays at the [[Island of Isolation]] as its lone inhabitant, and can be recruited if it is defeated.&lt;br /&gt;
* {{g|Quest}}: A telepathic Mewtwo appears as the final boss of Pokémon Quest. It is trapped (in a vague, undefined manner) in the [[Chamber of Legends]]. It discretely takes control of [[MoBee]] to talk to the [[player (Quest)|player]], in order to lure the player across [[Tumblecube Island]] and collect the {{OBP|statue|Quest}}s that open the Chamber. Once encountered it battles the player&#039;s Pokémon to test itself. It did not recover fully from the time it was sealed away, and the player defeats it in battle. After being defeated, Mewtwo departs from the island. After the credits, it telepathically informs the player about [[Happenstance Island]].&lt;br /&gt;

{{main|Mewtwo (Adventures)}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{spoilers}}&lt;br /&gt;
Similar to the {{pkmn|animated series}}, Mewtwo was created by [[Team Rocket]] in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. It first appeared in &#039;&#039;[[PS016|Tauros the Tyrant]]&#039;&#039; at [[Team Rocket Hideout|Team Rocket&#039;s hideout]], where it was still incomplete. It was completed by [[Blaine]] sometime before &#039;&#039;[[PS034|And Mewtwo Too?!]]&#039;&#039;, where it escaped from the hideout and settled into [[Cerulean Cave]]. The completion process involved Blaine using cells from his own arm, inadvertently also placing some of Mewtwo&#039;s cells into it. {{adv|Red}} and Blaine battled Mewtwo together, with Red eventually capturing it with Blaine&#039;s [[Master Ball]] in &#039;&#039;[[PS035|And Mewtwo... Three!]]&#039;&#039; and leaving it under the [[Gym Leader]]&#039;s care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mewtwo also made further appearances in later arcs of the manga. In the {{MangaArc|Yellow}}, it assisted {{adv|Yellow}} and Blaine in battling against [[Lance]] on [[Cerise Island]]. In &#039;&#039;[[PS162|Heckled by Hitmontop]]&#039;&#039;, {{DL|Legendary beasts (Adventures)|Entei}} burned away the Mewtwo cells in Blaine&#039;s body, allowing Mewtwo to live on its own and become a [[wild Pokémon]] again. It returned in the {{MangaArc|FireRed &amp;amp; LeafGreen}}, teaming up with Red, the only person to have put it in a [[Poké Ball]], to fight against {{adv|Giovanni}} and his {{adv|Deoxys}}. During this appearance, it was revealed to have gained the ability to {{pkmn2|talking|talk}} telepathically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the {{MangaArc|X &amp;amp; Y}}, Mewtwo reappeared in [[Kalos]], having reunited with Blaine and become the protector of [[Pokémon Village]]. When [[Team Flare]] started capturing Pokémon from the village, Mewtwo attacked [[Lysandre]] and fought the {{adv|Zygarde}} under his control, demonstrating its ability [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into both of its Mega forms in the process.&lt;br /&gt;

==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Shadow Mewtwo.png|thumb|100px|Shadow Mewtwo&#039;s unique aura]]&lt;br /&gt;
* One of the [[Pokémon Mansion journals]] states Mewtwo&#039;s birthday is February 6.&lt;br /&gt;
** The same journal implies {{p|Mew}} was impregnated with the modified clone, just like with real-life cloning. All other depictions show Mewtwo being grown using laboratory equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mewtwo comes before Mew in the [[Pokédex]] despite being created from its modified DNA.&lt;br /&gt;
* Even though Mewtwo is a clone of Mew, a Mythical Pokémon, Mewtwo is a Legendary Pokémon.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mewtwo was the first Pokémon seen in the English [[dub]], as it appears at the very beginning of the [[Pokémon Theme|first dub opening]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Mewtwo has the most {{pkmn|animated series}} opening appearances of any [[Legendary Pokémon]], with seven in Japan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mewtwo and {{p|Charizard}} share several [[Mega Evolution]] similarities. Both Pokémon are the only ones to have two Mega Evolutions instead of one. Both of their Y Mega Evolutions were revealed before their X ones. Both Pokémon change their typing in their X Mega Evolutions while they remain the same type in their Y Mega Evolutions. Both X Mega Evolutions are physically oriented while their Y Mega Evolutions are specially oriented.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mewtwo is depicted on the door of [[Bill]]&#039;s lighthouse in &#039;&#039;[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]&#039;&#039;, despite having only been seen by [[Team Rocket scientist|its creators]] and [[Team Rocket]] at that point in the animated series. Similarly, Mewtwo&#039;s sprite was depicted as a portrait in [[Viridian Gym]], despite being a public area.&lt;br /&gt;
* The island country of {{wp|Niue}} released a one-dollar coin featuring Mewtwo as part of a commemorative promotion for the Pokémon franchise, with Mewtwo on the reverse side and the nation&#039;s crest on the obverse.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mewtwo was originally depicted as the only member of its species, being a clone of Mew. In the {{pkmn|animated series}} and {{pkmn|manga}}, however, it is implied that multiple Mewtwo have been created.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mega Mewtwo Y was the first [[Mega Evolution]] revealed to the public.&lt;br /&gt;
** It was also the first to appear in the animated series, even before Mega Evolution was announced.&lt;br /&gt;
** Prior to the announcement of Mega Evolution, Mega Mewtwo Y was referred to as its 「覚醒した姿」 &#039;&#039;Awakened Form&#039;&#039;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://wayback.archive.org/web/20130618180918/http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2013/06/130615_m02.html?a001=news ポケモン映画最新作『神速のゲノセクト ミュウツー覚醒』へと続くオリジナルストーリーが、テレビで放送決定！]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This term was also used in the {{ma|Genesect and the Legend Awakened|manga adaptation of the movie}}.&lt;br /&gt;
** Mega Mewtwo Y was designed by [[Tomohiro Kitakaze]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://twitter.com/kitakazeee/status/1149513798115459073 Tweet by 北風友裕 (@kitakazeee).] Posted on July 12, 2019.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Mewtwo&#039;s Mega Evolutions are tied with Mega {{p|Rayquaza}} for the highest base stat total of all Pokémon, with 780, excluding the unobtainable [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Eternatus|Eternamax]] {{p|Eternatus}}.&lt;br /&gt;
** Mega Mewtwo X has the highest base {{stat|Attack}} of all Pokémon, as well as the highest single base stat and base {{stat|Special Attack}} of all {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.&lt;br /&gt;
*** Mega Mewtwo X&#039;s Attack increase is the largest single stat increase of all Mega Evolutions, at 80 points.&lt;br /&gt;
** Mega Mewtwo Y has the highest base Special Attack of all Pokémon and the highest single base stat of all Psychic-type Pokémon.&lt;br /&gt;
*** With a Mild [[Nature]], perfect [[IV]]s, and optimized [[EV]]s, a [[Level]] 100 Mega Mewtwo Y&#039;s stats sum to 2038, the highest sum of any Pokémon.&lt;br /&gt;
* In [[Pokémon GO]], Shadow Mewtwo is the only {{OBP|Shadow Pokémon|GO}} that has a different aura from the other Shadow Pokémon that isn&#039;t an Apex Shadow; instead of purple fire, it is surrounded by an aura resembling its Psychic power. It does not have a unique appearance when purified, however.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mewtwo is currently the only Legendary Pokémon in {{g|GO}} to have an [[Event Pokémon (GO)|event-exclusive form]].&lt;br /&gt;
* In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, {{pkmn2|wild}} Mewtwo are programmed to always be holding a [[Berserk Gene]], but Mewtwo can&#039;t be obtained in those games without trading. Even if Mewtwo could be found in the wild, the Berserk Gene would be consumed immediately, so the item wouldn&#039;t be obtainable.&lt;br /&gt;
* {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}&#039;s base stats are based on Mewtwo&#039;s, with some values swapped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Origin===&lt;br /&gt;
Like Mew, Mewtwo has some domestic {{wp|cat}} and {{wp|embryo}} characteristics, but its body structure is much larger as a result of {{wp|Recombinant DNA|gene splicing}}. It also has some characteristics of a {{wp|grey alien}} and a {{wp|salamander}}. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mega Mewtwo Y, much like Mew, has characteristics of a vertebrate {{wp|embryo}}.&lt;br /&gt;
