Pokémon: Mewtwo Returns (Japanese: ミュウツー!我ハココニ在リ Mewtwo! I Am Here) is the first feature-length special of the Pokémon anime about a mysterious clone Pokémon thought to be forgotten but wanted to be captured for a man's evil purposes.

Ash[edit]

  • (to Mewtwo) You're one of a kind too. Everybody is.
  • (to Mewtwo) Do you always need a reason to help someone?

Brock[edit]

  • Hey, I know! I'll use my trusty frying pan... as a drying pan!

Mewtwo[edit]

  • The moon reflects the light of the sun. Pokèmon born into this world may walk freely in that sun. But we were created, reflections. We are shadows. Perhaps we should not live in sunlight, but in the shadows of moonlight.
  • Enough! We are what we are. We will stay here and live in peace, if we can.
  • (to Ash) Perhaps you are unique, a unique human. One of a kind.
  • (to Clone Pikachu) No. Fighting is senseless.
  • Yes, they deserve to remember. If we are able to look into the future as other Pokèmon do, we must also look into the past. The shame of that past is not ours, it belongs to those who used our past to set us apart, to ensure the safety of all of my fellow Pokèmon and of this healing place. I will only clear the memories of those who seek to destroy them. Only they shall forget.
  • The time has come for us to depart.
  • Thank you. I will remember you always.
  • If you hear my voice, know that it is my spirit calling across time and space...to yours.
  • (to Ash) I will remember you....always.
  • You ask why I saved the humans? For our own protection. An accident would bring human rescuers. We might be discovered and our peace disrupted. You believe there is another reason? That I felt concerned? That I cared about the safety of those humans? I assure you, that is not the case. I could never feel compassion for humans.
  • For these Pokèmon, life as it should be. They were born into this world. It is their home. They belong here. We were not born as they were. We are not of this world. We do not belong in it. But where do we belong? Do we truly deserve to belong here as much as the other Pokèmon do? We are unlike the others. Yes, I am sure the moon is round and bright to those Butterfree just as it is to us and other Pokèmon who sees it. If we see the moon as they do, why can we not see the Earth as they do? Yes, why?
  • There is nothing to be gained from such battling. You are the same as the other Pokèmon. Neither stronger nor weaker. You proved that the last time we met.
  • I searched for a place to live in secret and in peace. Now these humans have found us again. Perhaps we shall never find peace.
  • Then I must use what remains of my power. Either these machines will be destroyed or I will be.
  • I do not know what I am, and soon it may not matter.
  • I have seen this place. I have been here before. Was it...in my dreams? But this is no dream. I feel new life rising within me. Mew? If these waters have the same restoring effect on me, as they do on other Pokémon, Pokémon who belong into this world. Could it be that this world is my rightful place too?
  • You will not defile this place. It does not belong to you, anymore than I do. This place has given me new life. Now I shall use all of my power to defend it.
  • So this is my power, but what is my purpose?

Team Rocket[edit]

Meowth: (translating for Clone Pikachu) It's saying "It ain't fair that we have to live like shadows. This place is beautiful, but beyond out here is a big, wide world...a bright world. You know that world, don't you Pikachu?! You were born in it and you can live in it! Anyway and anywhere you want! But because of what we are we can't live in that world like you do. No matter where we go or what we do, we don't belong."
Meowth: Pikachu's right. There's no reason for you Pokèmon to fight us fight. (after noticing the moon) Yeah it is a full moon. Sure looks pretty, huh.
Meowth: The moon looks awfully bright tonight.
Meowth: Meowth that's rig- (sees Clone Meowth looking at him and confused) Hahaha.
Meowth: (seeing Pikachu getting ready for a Thunderbolt) Maybe it wants to play.
Jessie: I know that feeling. Ever since I was a little girl the world has always treated me as a misfit, as an outcast, as someone who doesn't really belong. SO PREPARE FOR TROUBLE!
James: And make it double! We unite all peoples, we extend our reach, we blast off! So surrender now or prepare to fight!
Meowth: It's got nothing to do with my nose! It's what all the other Pokèmon have to say! It's only natural to wonder about who you are and where you came from and someday these little ones are going to want some answers. Only there won't be any. NOT IF YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE EVERYONE FORGET! So what if their parents are clones? They're all living creatures. They deserve to live. And they deserve to know about themselves just as much you, me or anybody does! That's what we think!
Meowth: (traslating for Clone Pikachu) It's saying their only choice is to stand their ground. If they don't their home will be taken away from them. They gotta battle. THIS IS MORE THAN JUST A BATTLE?!?! THIS IS WAR?!?! Gahh! What did I get into?
James: I know you're psychic but have we met before?
James: This is like a sequel to a movie I missed.

Dialogue[edit]

Mewtwo: No, fighting is senseless.
Clone Pikachu: (charges to Pikachu and jumps at Pikachu)
Mewtwo: (uses Psychic on Clone Pikachu who's just inches from Pikachu and gently places it on the ground) There's is nothing to be gained from such battling. You are the same as the Pokèmon. Neither stronger nor weaker. You proved that the last time we met.
Pikachu: (approaches Clone Pikachu but it slaps Pikachu away)
Jessie: This is awfully confusing.
James: This is like a sequel to a movie I missed.
Mewtwo: (glares at Team Rocket)
(Team Rocket is terrified of Mewtwo.)
Jessie: Don't mind us. We're just looking for a balloon repair shop. Hehe.
Mewtwo: I searched for a place to live in secret and in peace. Now these humans have found us again. Perhaps we shall never find peace.
(Team Rocket helicopters are approaching the island.)
James: I know you're psychic but have we met before?
Clone Pikachu: (talking to Mewtwo)
Meowth: (translating) It's saying their only chance is to stand their ground. If they don't their home will be taken away from them. They gotta battle.
Clone Pikachu: [talks more]
Meowth: THIS IS MORE THAN JUST A BATTLE?!?! THIS IS WAR?!?! Gahh! What did I get into?
[The clone Pokemon begin to growl in agreement.]
Pikachu: [responds]
Meowth: Pikachu's right. There's no reason for you Pokèmon to fight us Pokèmon.
Clone Meowth: [scratches its ear then starts staring at the moon] Meow.
Meowth: [looks at the moon also] Yeah, it is a full moon. Sure is pretty, huh?
[All of the Pokèmon begin stare at the moon.]
Mewtwo: The moon reflects the light of the sun. Pokèmon born into this world may walk freely in that sun. But we were created, reflections. We are shadows. Perhaps we must not live in sunlight but in the shadows of moonlight.
Meowth: The moon looks awfully bright tonight.
Clone Pikachu: [responds angrily]
Meowth: It's saying, "It ain't fair that we have to live like shadows."
Clone Pikachu: [continues and starts crying]
Meowth: "This place is beautiful. But beyond this place is a big, wide world."
Clone Pikachu: [looks out into the lake] Pika pi.
Meowth: "A bright world."
[Scenes show a beautiful scenery. Mountains and green meadows everywhere with flowers and the wind blowing. Then shows the sea and then the planet.]
Clone Pikachu: [looks at Pikachu angrily and speaks to him]
Meowth: "You know that world don't you Pikachu?! You were born in it and you can live in it! Anyway and anywhere you want!"
Pikachu: [nods]
Clone Pikachu: [continues]
Meowth: "But because of what we are we can't live in that world like you do!"
Clone Pikachu: [starts crying again and continues talking]
Meowth: "Whatever we do or wherever we go, we don't belong."
Jessie: I know that feeling. Ever since I was a little girl the world has always treated me as a misfit, as an outcast, as someone who doesn't really belong. SO PREPARE FOR TROUBLE!
James: And make it double! We unite all peoples, we extend our reach, we blast off! So surrender now or prepare to fight!
Meowth: Meowth that's rig- [sees Clone Meowth looking at him with a confused face] Hahaha.
Mewtwo: Enough! We are what we are. We will stay here and live in peace, if we can.

[From "Mewtwo Returns"; Mewtwo is telling a clone Pikachu that fighting gains nothing and is confusing Team Rocket]
Jessie: This is awfully confusing.
James:This is like the sequel to a movie I missed...

Mewtwo: [still held captive by the machines]
[Ash, his friends, and the Pokèmon run up to Mewtwo.]
Mewtwo: I'm glad that you are safe.
Clone Pikachu: Pika.
Mewtwo: But I cannot bear this much longer.
Ash: Mewtwo.
Mewtwo: How do you know my name?
Ash: We heard it from Meowth and Meowth told us you saved my Pikachu. There's gotta be someway we can help you now.
Mewtwo: Stop these machines.
Misty: (at the blue machine) Brock, maybe there's a cutoff switch.
Brock: (at the red machine with Ash) It's no use. They're all sealed up!
Ash: Well, we'll have to tackle them. (tackles the red machine)
Brock: Hit it harder! (tackles it also)
(The Pokémon also tackle the machine. The Pokémon, Ash and Brock all tackle the machine at the same time, but fail to destroy the machine.)
Brock: (to Mewtwo) We can't stop it!
Mewtwo: Then I must use what remains of my power. Either these machines will be destroyed or I will be.

Ash: [to Bulbasaur and Chikorita] Thanks guys, keep going.
[Bulbasaur and Chikorita are helping Ash carry Mewtwo to the spring.]
Mewtwo: Why? Why are you helping me?
Ash: Well for one thing, you saved my Pikachu. That's a good reason.
Mewtwo: The only one?
Ash: Do you always need a reason to help somebody?
Mewtwo: Perhaps you are unique, a unique human. One of a kind.
Ash: You're one of a kind too. Everybody is.
Mewtwo: [chuckles lightly] I do not know what I am, and soon it may not matter.

Ash: You're gonna make us forget?
Meowth: You can't do that!
[Ash and Mewtwo turn to Meowth.]
James: Meowth, be quiet!
Jessie: Don't stick your nose into this. Meowth!
Meowth: It's got nothing to do with my nose! It's what all the other Pokémon have to say!
[All the Pokémon nod in agreement.]
Meowth: [looks at a baby Nidoqueen and Rhyhorn] It's only natural to wonder about who you are and where you came from and someday these little ones are going to want some answers. Only there won't be any. NOT IF YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE EVERYONE FORGET!
[The mother Nidoqueen and father Rhyhorn nod in agreement.]
Meowth: So what if their parents are clones? They're all living creatures. They deserve to live. And they deserve to know about themselves just as much you, me or anybody does! That's what we think!
Clone Meowth: Meow!
Ash: I think we should remember too. Meowth is right!
Brock: And just forgetting about things doesn't change the fact that they happened.
Misty: Don't you think everybody deserves to know who they are and where they came from?
Togepi: [pokes out from Misty's bag] Togepree!
Mewtwo: [nods] Yes, they deserve to remember. If we are able to look into the future as other Pokèmon do, we must also look into the past. The shame of that past is not ours, it belongs to those who used our past to set us apart, to ensure the safety of all of my fellow Pokèmon and of this healing place. I will only clear the memories of those who seek to destroy them.
[The Butterfree fly over the defeated Team Rocket.]
Mewtwo: [looks over Giovanni, Double 009, Persian and the Team Rocket Combat Unit] Only they shall forget.
