:Devil's advocate? I'm not contradicting you, merely I feel that this Mewtwo should be categorized under the first movie which itself is eponymous with. "Mewtwo Returns" isn't a film, it's a special. Calling it "Mewtwo (M01)" still implies it's the Mewtwo of the original series, just in a more specific manner. Do you understand now?

::But that's just it: we shouldn't have to ''imply'' when we can outright ''state''. Although "Mewtwo Returns" and the anime episodes aren't films, they are still important media that must be included. (The same for SS026 and the other Mewtwo, which also needs its article renamed.) "Mewtwo (M01)" leaves out everything but M01 and, by implication, suggests that it has had no other appearances, while "Mewtwo (original series)" does not leave out any appearances (the cameo notwithstanding) and accurately describes every time that it has appeared, ''including'' M01.

::But what other roles did it have other than two cameos in the anime series? [[M1]] is where Mewtwo's role became important and focal to the storyline and unfurled its mysterious past, alliance with Giovanni and hatred for humanity. Sure, the (OS) label covers all of its appearances, but the (M1) label focused more on the character, making it less ambiguous.

::::"What other roles did it have?" Have you forgotten Mewtwo Returns already? Mewtwo is an equally important part of both M01 and Mewtwo Returns, and favoring one over the other just because it was released in a different format makes no sense to me. Like I've said before — in my opinion, the "M01" tag is ''too'' specific because it completely ignores everything else this Mewtwo has appeared in. Emphasizing recognizability at the expense of correctness should never be done. By now I think we're starting to talk in circles and I've repeated all my reasons several times, so I won't be responding any further. I think my previous posts speak pretty well for themselves as to my reasons for preferring "Mewtwo (original series)" over "Mewtwo (M01)".
