The Birth of Mewtwo (Japanese: ミュウツーの誕生 Mewtwo no Tanjō) is a CD drama that only appeared in Japan. It was released in 1998, a few months after the premiere of Mewtwo Strikes Back in Japanese cinemas. It was also adapted to an anime special that was dubbed into English. The special appears in the DVD of Mewtwo Returns.

Plot

The CD drama is divided into five parts:

  • The Mirage: "Mew" (幻の「ミュウ」 Maboroshi no "Mew").

Dr.Fuji speaks of being sent out by Giovanni to look for Mew, supposedly the strongest Pokémon known to mankind. However he also speaks that with the research funds he wants to try recreating his daughter Amber while Giovanni simply wants control of said most powerful Pokémon known to mankind. They start to bring back what they believe is a Mew fossil and hopefully will be enough to create a new super Pokémon. They begin research and start to create the DNA for a new Pokémon.

  • The Birth of Mewtwo (ミュウツーの誕生 Mewtwo no Tanjō).

Mewtwo and Ambertwo begin to speak with each other through telekineses. Mewtwo asks what are those sounds being made to which Ambertwo simply replies they are speaking. Mewtwo wonders what she is and she says she is a girl. Mewtwo ponders if he is a Pokémon or person and Ambertwo says it should never matter which one you are. The researchers figure out that they are speaking with the clones. Fuji simply looks at the tubes in joy but anger. Ambertwo explains they call her Ambertwo but she is still Amber inside. Fuji hopes that his daughter will be able to live once more. His wife whines that he shouldn't try to bring their daughter back to life. She breaks up with him explaining she can't stand to see him try this fruitless efforts and leaves.

  • Mewtwo and Amber (ミュウツーとアイ Mewtwo to Ai).

Fuji and a researcher talk about Giovanni happily soon having the strongest Pokémon of all while Fuji hope to have new knowledge of how to bring his daughter back to life. Ambertwo shows Mewtwo and the clones a memory where she used to live and shows him elements of life, wind, sun, rain and times of the day. Mewtwo accidentily asks if the Moon is the Sun and is told the moon is there to keep people from being afraid of the dark. The clones fade away and soon so does Ambertwo. "It feels like it's time to say goodbye.." which leaves Mewtwo feeling very sad and alone. He fears being alone and is told that it will be alright and thanks for caring for Ambertwo. She tells him to be happy is alive. Mewtwo's uncontrollable sadness starts to affect the lab and they try to stabilize its powers and they almost fail. Dr. Fuji is happy Mewtwo survived but outraged his daughter is gone forever.

  • The Strongest Pokémon of the World (世界最強のポケモン Sekai Saikyō no Pokémon).

Mewtwo says sleeping feels like forever and says life is wonderful and begins to ponder why it exists. It awakens to the real world and sees the lab while constantly asking "Who am I?" in ghostly whispers. It asks where it is. From here the movie "Mewtwo strikes Back" begins.

  • Mewtwo Strikes Back (ミュウツーの逆襲 Mewtwo no Gyakūshu).
