David: In Death Battle, many combatants fight with their fists, guns, energy based attacks, but rarely do characters with telepathy powers show up to fight.
Cole: This is the case with these two fighters. Mewtwo, the strongest Pokémon ever created.
David: And Sans, the comedic skeleton of the Underground. I'm David and he's Cole, and it's our job to analyze their armor, weapons, and skills to see who'd win, a Death Battle.
Mewtwo:
<da:embed id="8jvq6iI2bqk" profile="youtube" width="560" height="315">David: Long ago, the brilliant scientist known as Dr. Fuji worked to create a being that would change the entire planet.
Cole: Well, aside from the whole 'changing the world thing', he hoped it would help him find out a way to revive his deceased daughter, Amber.
David: With resources funded by Team Rocket, he was able to clone his daughter's ball of consciousness.
Cole: Is that even possible? What kind of science machine can do that?
David: I have...absolutely no idea. Anyway, in order to make his dream into a reality he needed to create a clone of the legendary Mew. And it was brilliantly named, Mewtwo...get it? Because it's the second Mew..?
Cole: *sighs* And here I thought SEGA was bad with names.
David: Anyway, Dr. Fuji managed to clone Mewtwo using a fossilized eyelash of Mew.
Cole: Meh. Cloning Amber's ball of consciousness is cooler. Anyway, growing up in a test tub, Mewtwo managed to connect with Dr. Fuji's other test subjects, including a Charmander, Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Amber herself through a psychic link.
David: She taught it about things humans would be taught, like the sun, moon, tears, and unfortunately, death. It learned this when Amber died right in front of them.
Cole: Dr. Fuji then had the idea of, 'oh no, Mewtwo's all sad! Let's go ahead and erase it's memories!'
David: Unfortunately, this left Mewtwo with the feeling of loss and no memory to explain why.
Cole: The only option? Kill every scientist then clone some Pokémon to take its anger out on humanity. Then, during its fight with the legendary Mew, Ash Ketchem got turned to stone by being in the middle of the blast, all the Pokémon started crying, turned Ash to normal, and then Mewtwo just decided to say 'f**k it' and left humanity alone.

David: Mewtwo is one of the most powerful Psychic Type Pokémon. It can use the power of its mind and energy based attacks to defeat its foes.
Cole: You're probably wondering why we're calling them 'it'. See, like most, if not all legendaries, Mewtwo is genderless.
David: And it knows a lot of moves. Including Psychic, Psycho Cut, Shadow Ball, Counter, Recover which restores half of his health, Future Sight, Aura Sphere, Swift, Psystrike, and also Hyper Beam.
Cole: But that's not all. Power Swap and Guard Swap swaps offensive and defensive stats with its opponent, Disable can render a move useless for a while, Safeguard prevents stat ailments, Psych Up copies the stats of the opponents, though it doesn't make any changes if the opponent gets a power boost after it's used, and Barrier increases its defense.
David: Mewtwo can also fly, teleport, and can use its Psychic abilities to augment its Melee moves, and even use a giant spoon that can slice buildings.
Cole: It can also read people's minds, erase memories, and even control people's minds. And it's passive move, Pressure, makes am opponent use twice as much energy than usual.
David: But when his opponent isn't already dead, he can use his Mega Evolution.
Cole: Unlike most Pokémon, Mewtwo doesn't need a trainer to Mega Evolve. And Mega Mewtwo Y seems to be his favorite.
David: As Mega Mewtwo Y, it gains a new ability called Insomnia, making it immune to Sleep and Yawn. It also gains an increase in attack, special attack, special defense, and speed.
Cole: Mewtwo has got some crazy feats like flying into space, tanked Fire Blast from Red's Charizard, defeated Deoxys, Articuno, and Giovanni.
David: It halted the Tree of Life's decent to the sun, created a planet-destroying storm, teleported a 92 billion gallon lake, caught Aerodactyl's Hyper Beam, and erased dozens of memories at once.
Cole: Man. He pretty much is the world's strongest Pokémon.
David: Yeah, but he's not without some obvious weaknesses. Being a Psychic Type Pokémon means he's weak to Dark, Ghost, and....Bug...Types....
Cole: What? Bug Types!? You're pulling my leg here, aren't you.
David: I wish I was. And despite being very intelligent, Mewtwo is not the best strategist.
Cole: Despite having moves to swap offense and defense stats or copy stats, Mewtwo didn't use this trick when fighting Red and his Pokémon, resulting in it losing to Mega Charizard X.
David: But even so, Mewtwo is extremely powerful and a very formidable foe.
Mewtwo: I was not born a Pokémon, I was created, and my creators used and betrayed me, so I stand alone!
Sans:
<da:embed id="7B2TPEZTwWA" profile="youtube" width="560" height="315">David: Years ago, a war was waged between two races: the humans and the monsters, to determine who would be the ultimate ruler of the world.
Cole: Unsurprisingly, the humans won. This meant that the monster were sealed underground. And to make sure they didn't just come back, the humans put a magical barrier around them so they couldn't leave.
David: But there was a way to break it. If you had seven human souls and one monster soul, you could break through the barrier. Thus, the Goat King, Asgore, had a plan. If any humans fell into the underground, they'd be captured and have their souls removed, killing them.
Cole: Everyone was all for King Asgore's plan but his own wife, Toriel. After finding out what he was up to, she just straight up left him. Poor guy.
David: But the loss of his wife didn't stop him. He gave the tasks of capturing humans to Alphyus, his expert scientist, and Undyne, head of his Royal Guard. Though he also had unknown help from two skeletons.
Cole: Papyrus, the loud mouth skeleton, and his older brother, Sans.
<da:embed id="N1-RyLUQUrA" profile="youtube" width="560" height="315">
David: Nobody really knows where these two came from. They just arrived at the town Snowdin and 'inserted' themselves into society.
Cole: But people at least knew why they were there. The two skeleton brothers wanted to capture humans to help Asgore. But the only one who was actually serious about it was Papyrus.
David: Sans doesn't really care about any of that stuff. In fact, he spends most of his 'work time' taking naps, selling hotdogs, and taking as many breaks as he can.
Cole: But when he isn't working, he's usually eating burgers doused with ketchup, doing stand-up comedy at the MTT Resort, and making awful skeleton puns.
David: But when the human known as Frisk came falling down, Sans just decided to meet them instead, you know, capturing them. Which would actually require working.
Cole: After hiding Frisk from his brother via conveniently shaped lamp, he told Frisk that he knows 'shortcuts' because he knows the whole damn Underground so damn well.
David: Well, he calls them short cuts, it's more of him teleporting.
Cole: Ok, well that's not all he can do. If you decide to play through the Genocide run, Sans' dark side starts to show.
David: Behind his lazy exterior lays a monster with absolutely no mercy.
<da:embed id="B2jVbSI9H4o" profile="youtube" width="560" height="315">
Cole: Are you kidding me? He's weak as hell. Look at his stats!
[Sans: 1 ATK. 1 DEF. 1 HP. The easiest enemy]
Cole: Even the game agrees with me!
David: While Sans does in fact have one HP, he's so fast it's practically impossible to lay a hit on him. And while he only has one attack, his attacks ignore invincibility frames and can leave damage over time like a poisoning effect. This is what's known as Karmic Retribution.
Cole: By waving his hand around, he can throw dozens upon dozens of bones at you. He can also use laser beams through Gaster Blasters, and can even use the Blue Attack. And, he can use blue bones. These cant hurt you as long as you're not moving, but not everyone's going to know that.
David: The Blue Attack weighs your soul down and falling on his bone attacks. And he can even grab you by your soul and fling you around like a rage doll. And it's also worth noting that his attacks deal damage to your soul directly.
Cole: If his opponents manage to survive his onslaught of absolute pain, he'll start to get tired and try to spare you. If you agree, well then he'll trick you by summoning bones out from under you that'll kill you in a matter of seconds, all while saying 'get dunked on'.
David: Though if you continue to fight, he'll start teleporting you to different places, going faster as it goes.
Cole: This usually brings an onslaught of almost unavoidable attacks that'll most likely kill you.
David: Sans is super lazy though and doesn't have much feats. He can, however, break the fourth wall and even knows how many times you died against him. However, his laziness can often show its ugly face in combat. It takes a lot to get him riled up, and if he fights for too long, he'll eventually get tired, even to the point where his 'special attack' is nothing.
Cole: And soon enough, he'll try to talk you to death and even fall asleep. This often leads to his own death.
David: Even so, Sans is one of the most powerful beings in Undertale.
Cole: Whatever you do, don't piss him off, or you're done.
Sans: Heya. You look frustrated about something. Guess I'm pretty good at my job, huh?
