More wasted potential from Journeys

Hey look Mewtwo from the first Pokémon movie is back, this should be a cause for celebration right?

Nope. Not according to the writers anyway in this disappointing episode which wastes the first half with Ash and Gou messing about and kind of blows in the second half with a repetitive and boring battle that got old fast with the overuse of Shadow Ball. I mean I know the two were never gonna stand a chance against Mewtwo but come on man, at least use your other moves.

It was nice to hear Masachika as Mewtwo again but was it even worth it? Was it all worth it for such a stale and lifeless little episode? Not really in this case.

You're better off doing what Mewtwo did at the end of the first film and erase this episode out of your memory.
