Mewtwo might have some competition.

Pokémon Smash revealed what appears to be new Pokémon for the upcoming Pokémon X and Y today. It bears a strong resemblance to Mewtwo and is being referred to as a new Pokémon.
Junichi Masuda, one of the founding members of Game Freak, guest starred on the show and revealed an image of the Pokémon to the hosts. Videos of it battling in-game were also shown. Nothing further was discussed about the Pokémon, so it is not clear at this time if this is a new form or a new Pokémon altogether.
It has been over a month since the reveal of Sylveon, Eevee’s newest evolution. Little is known of Sylveon, and what type it is still remains a mystery. Pokémon X and Y will be released in October this year.
Check out the video and gallery below for footage and screens of this announcement in action.
Blasphemy. Mewtwo is fine just the way he is. My bet is that this is a genuine evolution of mew, rather than another form of mewtwo.
(which is still unacceptable)
Whoever the major humanoid Pokemon is for X and Y - Since Black and White was released in Japan during September 2010, and that team went to work on X and Y right after, it would have been in development for at least 1.5 years before Sakurai finalized the roster which he probably did around last Summer. When he went to Game Freak they probably told him who the Mewtwo/Lucario type of Pokemon for X and Y will be and that's who will be making an appearance in the next Smash Bros.

The show pretty clearly calls this a new pokemon, and we should regard it as such until otherwise proven.
This 100% guarantee's Mewtwo moveset will be returning for the next Smash Bros as this new Pokemon.
This new form of Mewtwo is going to be the star focus of the upcoming movie, making it the first major humanoid Pokemon of X and Y. was the star of the first Diamond and Pearl related movie and the first major humanoid Pokemon of that gen making him the choice for Smash Bros. So basically this new form is that Pokemon I was talking about, so yeah, he's in.

Except your whole reasoning is flawed. Mewtwo is the star of the next movie, not this new Pokemon.
You know, while I know a lot of people live MewTwo and Mew don't you think it's time to take those nostalgia glasses off? Seriously, I see lots of people hating on this version just because of it's design, which honestly I think he looks pretty cool, kind of like a kid MewTwo, I can understand that some of you hold MewTwo close to your chest because of nostalgia, but why not give this new guy a chance? We don't really know what he will be like, if he will kick major butt or if he will suck, let's just wait and see what his name is and what kind of pokemon he is.i agree to an extent, there is a certain point where i say no that thing is fugly(gen 5 did this a few times, including the 3 starters) but i don't often hate on the series just because of that... togekiss for example, just doesn't look like a natural evolution of togepi,
Also for those who are confused this has been stated as being a whole knew pokemon, not a form of MewTwo.just like the kyurem forms in BW2 were new pokemon... they basically said mewtwo 18 times and we know he'll show up in the next movie...
What is it with Nintendo and putting handles on things?You can interpret that...
There is a poster going around that replaces Mewtwo in the movie poster with this "new Pokémon"... not only that but the poster was leaked before this announcement, so many thought it was fake until this made the rounds.

It actually works out perfectly for Sakurai in the end. Mewtwo was the only original moveset from Melee that was completely cut for Brawl and heavily requested to return. The problem was the representation of Red/Blue/Green Pokemon was already too great and he didn't want to give Pokemon a 5 slot on the selection screen since Mario and Zelda both only had 4. Well for the next Smash Bros, Mario and Zelda will probably get 5 slots so Pokemon will too, and since this new Mewtwo is from a new gen, he can easily have him count as the new character, while bringing Mewtwo's moveset back and not having the original gen look even more loopsided in representation then it already does.
