Mewtwo Vs. Mew Fight From Pokémon's First Movie Perfectly Recreated In Pokémon GO

Since 's launch back in 2016, players have been able to live out the fantasy of becoming a Pokémon trainer out in the real world, catching Pokémon in their homes, gardens, or out on the go with the use of Augmented Reality tools to catch some regional-exclusive Pokémon. Some of the ones involving the camera could be turned off, with the game just using Google Maps to place Pokémon or gyms, but it's through the camera tool that one player has been able to get creative, recreating the climactic showdown at the end of the 1998 film,.

Players can even travel globally to catch more Pokémon, as is available in most countries. However, China is geolocked due to its ban of Google Maps, which is why the country is getting its own unique designs instead of ones with branding.

content creator cmillan1 shared a clip of the recreation on X. This sequence shows various Pokémon such as Pikachu, Charizard, Venusaur and Blastoise facing their clones, as well as Mew battling Mewtwo — although, as ChinPokomon pointed out in a comment below, the version used in the footage is Armored Mewtwo, rather than regular Mewtwo, which is the version that appeared in the film.

cmillan1 noted that while they have the clips of regular Mewtwo, they decided to go with Armoured Mewtwo so it goes with the clones.

While it may not be the most recent movie, Pokemon's first film has found a way to maintain its relevance — and legacy — for over two decades.

A lot of focused on Mewtwo's origins, with the extremely powerful Pokémon being borne out of an experiment to clone the mythical Pokémon, Mew, to make a superweapon for Team Rocket leader, Giovanni's benefit. Upon learning of his true purpose, Mewtwo plots revenge against humanity and Pokémon alike, returning to the laboratory in which he was created, luring in trainers such as Ash, Misty, Brock, and Team Rocket and challenging them to a battle with cloned versions of Pokémon.

Pikachu and Meowth don't actually battle their clones — Pikachutwo
