Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS players who recently got their hands on the newly-added fighter Mewtwo were sad to discover that the character came equipped with only a single set of special moves. This means that the legendary Pokémon stands out from the cast as the only one stuck in a factory default setting.

Or is he? Smash player Mankalor recently found a method of transferring a Mii from the home console to the handheld that allows Mewtwo to bring a random set of unfinished special moves into the fight. These moves are, for the most part, useless, as a fair majority either lack hitboxes and complete animations or, in one specific case, crash the game.

Though they’re nowhere near complete, the framework for new sets of specials is definitely there, so it should be interesting to see if Mewtwo eventually receives the same custom move treatment as his fellow combatants.

With Beowulf officially joining the Skullgirls Encore cast tomorrow, it’s now time to look ahead to the indie fighter’s next (and possibly last) character release: Robo-Fortune!

Though initially a joke started by Ms. Fortune voice actor Kimlinh Tran, this upcoming cast member is set to become reality thanks to the generosity shown during Lab Zero Games’ highly successful crowdfunding campaign. Far from a mere palette swap, Robo-Fortune brings her own technologically advanced fighting style to the table.

In the video below, the developers show off some of the work-in-progress character’s moveset along early looks at her unique stage and a brand new theme by composer Michiru Yamane. Check it out and let us know what you think.
