About MechaMew2
MechaMew2 is a mechanical Pokémon created by Team Rocket in the live stage show "Pokémon Live". Giovanni, leader of Team Rocket, is using this new Pokémon for world conquest; MechaMew2 has a special ability that instantly copies any attack used against it. Giovanni has challenged to give any Pokémon Trainers that can defeat his new Pokémon the rare Diamond Badge. Of course, this is just a scheme to get every known Pokémon special attack. Eventually, MechaMew2 learns every attack except two: Thundershock and Thunderbolt. Ironically, these are two special attacks known by the Pikachu that belongs to Ash, which is the Pokémon his subordinates Jessie, James, and Meowth are constantly attempting to steal. The three Team Rocket flunkies finally succeed in capturing the small mouse Pokémon, but Ash, Misty, and Brock are in pursuit, in an attempt to rescue Pikachu. When Ash finally reaches Giovanni's Gym and rescues Pikachu, he mockingly gives Ash the Diamond Badge, saying he'll retrieve it when the young trainer loses. Ash has Pikachu attack MechaMew2 with Thundershock and Thunderbolt. Neither attack has any affect on MechaMew2, but Giovanni then claims MechaMew2 has learned every Pokémon attack. Just when Giovanni is about to order for MechaMew2 to destroy Ash, Mewtwo enters the Gym. Mewtwo then attacks MechaMew2 with a new and strange attack. MechaMew2 then says that the attack was full of love, caring, and friendship. Having experienced these feelings, MechaMew2 cannot go along with Giovanni's evil scheme any longer. As a sacrificial move, MechaMew2 grabs Giovanni by the throat and performs a Selfdestruct, blowing up the lab and destroying itself. However, the sacrifice is in vain, as, although he is roughed up, Giovanni survives. Mewtwo says the attack he used was the memories of Ash being such a kind person.
Physical Appearance
MechaMew2 appears to be a version of Mewtwo created solely out of machinery. Instead of legs, however, it has tank treads to move around, and a large power source on the front of it.
Attacks
By the end of the stage show, MechaMew2 knows every standard Pokémon attack. This is due to its special Attack Back, which allows it to copy, use, and amplify any attack used against it, while being unaffected by the original attack itself.
Cards
Although no cards of MechaMew2 have been released in the official Pokémon Trading Card Game, there was one special trading card that was released at the time of the stage show's run. Other than the Pokémon's name, picture, height, and weight, it also shows a picture of the coveted Diamond Badge. Also on the card is this description: "This mechanical marvel was created by Giovanni, the diabolical leader of Team Rocket. It has the power to learn, then amplify and return, the attacks of any Pokémon it meets in battle, making it virtually unstoppable. To insure that MechaMew2 learns every type of Pokémon attack, Giovanni lures trainers to battle him by offering the one-of-a-kind DiamondBadge to whoever can defeat him."
