Zoomers will never understand. Relative to the game it was created for, Mewtwo is a pretty intense and scary thing. Reading about its creation on Cinnabar Island and then finally running into this freakish fucking thing in a cave is pretty effective nightmare fuel for a kid; or at least it was for me. I feel Mewtwo represents perfectly the feelings of Gen 1 and 2, where despite obviously being games for children, it always felt like there were darker themes lurking right below the surface that really got my mind racing as a kid.
