One of the integral elements that could make or break a match for different Fighters in the Super Smash Bros. Tournament, was the "Final Smash." Designed in the third tournament, Final Smashes are where a Fighter obtains an item from Master Hand dubbed as a Smash Ball, which gifts them with incredible power to do an astronomical attack on their opponents. And it's different for every Fighter, taking advantage of their different skills.

Mario for example uses "Mario Finale" a move where he launches massive fireballs across the screen, which according to him, is essentially an upgraded and more refined version of his Ultra Flame from Super Mario RPG. Sonic is permitted to summon the seven Chaos Emeralds to temporarily allow him to transform into Super Sonic. Kirby uses the Ultra Sword, a larger and impossibly strong version of his own Sword Kirby power, and several other fighters use either similar transformations or weapons. Some like Mega Man, Shulk, and to a lesser extent Fox and Falco, even summon the aid of their allies.

Either way, Final Smashes are awesome. Some are even developed more and more over the course of Tournaments. Dedede once summoned an army of Waddle Dees to storm his opponents, before moving to a move he called "Dedede Burst" where he absorbed an opponent, smashed them with his hammer and then blew them up with a bomb, before finally moving to a move called "Dede-Rush" where he utilizes the Masked Dedede and hammer upgrade introduced in Super Star to crush his opponents. Pit was also one of these cases, where first summoned the aid of Centurions from Palutena's army, before using the Three Sacred Treasures, then finally using the Lightning Chariot.

For some, Final Smashes were an evolving concept. And the CPUs were well aware of this. Which is what ultimately lead to Neptune arriving to the Lastation Basilicom with a request.

"What's that you said?" Blanc asked.

"Mewtwo wants to change his Final Smash," Neptune replied.

"But why?" Noire added.

"I dunno," Neptune replied. "Said it had something to do with that Pokken game that came out awhile ago. He wanted to change so instead of going Mega Mewtwo in his Final Smash he instead transforms into that Shadow Mewtwo thingy."

Vert perked up upon hearing what Neptune was talking about. At first she was playing a multiplayer game with Uni at the couch, but in her shock, she accidentally gave Uni the win.

"Hm," Blanc said thoughtfully, "well I don't think there's any problem in that. I mean, Mewtwo hasn't battled in a Final Smash match before, so it shouldn't be an issue to change it. What do you guys think?"

"I think it's fine," Noire said. "I'd like to see what he has in mind first before making a choice, however. Just to keep it fair. Vert?"

"I... I'm uncertain," Vert replied.

"What? Why?" Blanc asked.

"Perchance," Vert replied, "have you played Pokken Tournament?"

"No," Noire replied. "I don't submit to the mainstream Nintendo peripherals."

"That's pretty hypocritical when you're hosting Smash," Blanc said, a hint of red on her cheeks. "But I only played a little bit of it, myself."

"I did not play," Neptune replied. "Because I forgot about it."

"Well I played it," Vert replied. "And I must say, Shadow Mewtwo is... concerning."

"Well," Blanc said, "let's go to see him and see what he has planned. Neptune, did you already go and see Master Hand about it?"

"That I did," Neptune replied. "We're all good to go, me amigos."

"Uni, hold down the fort for me, sweetie?" Noire said.

"Okay," Uni said, waving to the CPUs as they all left.

Later, the CPUs all touched down in the streets close to the housing district where the Fighters were staying. Hovering in the middle of the road without a care in the world was the Legendary Pokemon they were looking for, Mewtwo.

"Hello Mewtwo," Blanc greeted. "How are you doing?"

"I am doing well," Mewtwo replied telepathically. "How are you all?"

"We're fine," Blanc replied. "But we understand you wanted to see us about changing your Final Smash. Something about 'Shadow Mewtwo' you said?"

"That is correct," Mewtwo replied. "Would you like to see it?"

"Sure thing," Blanc replied. "But let's relocate to someplace a bit more out of the way."

Before long, the group arrived in the middle of Final Destination so they could not risk anybody being hurt by the oncoming attacks. The CPUs all transformed into their HDD forms as per Mewtwo's requests. Save for Vert, who was standing as far away as she could.

"Vert? What's wrong?" Purple Heart asked.

"I do not want to get in the way of this," Vert replied. "I'm standing far over here where it's safe. I at least hope."

"You're being a bit overdramatic," Black Heart replied. "Go on Mewtwo. Show us what you have in mind."

"As you wish," Mewtwo replied with a nod. A Smash Ball was dropped down in front of him, which he crushed with his tail, gaining the multicolored, flame-like aura of the energy that would allow him to use his Final Smash.

In a flash of dark light, Mewtwo turned into a dark version of himself, with pitch black flesh, and amber colored crystals jutting from his shoulder. His power had certainly changed, but it wasn't just that which got the CPUs attention. What was even worse was the overall aura he was giving off. He seemed far more sinister while looking at them, as if there was an evil intent behind his look.

Before the goddesses could even consider regretting this, Mewtwo slashed at them with an amber blade that shot out of his arm, knocking them into the air! He stunned them with an electric energy that pulsed from his body, before he finally summoned a planet-busting sphere of dark energy that he shot at the goddesses, vaporizing them on the spot!

They all respawned in their base forms, all of them looking rather worse for wear. Vert looked at them with minor surprise. Yet in her heart she knew that this was not unforeseen.

Vert, having played Pokken Tournament, knew just how powerful Shadow Mewtwo really was. He was the final boss of the game. The M. Bison or Shao Khan if you will. And as such, was the most game breaking character. He was one of those final boss characters from a fighting game that was so impossibly strong that essentially, when you get him, the game is snapped in two.

But even still, such power was impressive enough to beat three out of the four CPUs in one fell swoop? Able to fight them she knew was possible, but able to beat them in practically one shot was a bit too much. And it made her fear Shadow Mewtwo that much more.

"What... the hell... just happened...?" Blanc asked.

"Shadow Mewtwo," Vert replied.

"That doesn't..." Noire uttered. "How?"

"If you had played the game," Vert replied, "you'd understand that Shadow Mewtwo is nigh invincible."

"Shall we, try it again?" Mewtwo asked, having returned to normal.

"I dunno bud," Neptune said, stretching her back as she stood back up. "That was a bit-"

"Let's do it," Blanc said, a frighteningly determined expression on her face!

"What?" Neptune asked in surprise. "You want to do that again?"

"I want to survive it!" Blanc replied. "There's no way that move can be so powerful every single time!"

"Okay," Mewtwo replied. Before the CPUs could even transform again, Shadow Mewtwo caught them in his attack and knocked them all out once more!

"Ow!" Neptune and Noire yelled in a heap on the ground, upon respawning!

"Again!" Blanc said, holding up a bloody arm!

"No!" the others replied.

For several minutes, Mewtwo kept on annihilating the CPUs, while Vert watched them go down with feigned interest. Finally it got too much for Neptune and Noire to bear and they demanded that they stop!

"No more!" Noire said. "Just no more!"

"I can't tolerate this!" Blanc said. "I have to figure out just what in the name of all things good is making him so abnormally strong! We've been at nearly full health every time we've respawned yet he kills us each time!"

With a mighty cry she transformed into Next White and aimed her weapons at the cloned Pokemon! "Come on you muthu-!"

She got knocked away on her own this time, sending her into the same flurry before she respawned! "Gah!" she yelled. "No!"

"So..." Neptune said. "Does he get the Final Smash or not?"

"Not!" Blanc replied. "None... just... none of that! That thing is way too freaking strong! How in the world he could be allowed an instant kill move no matter what percentage his opponents are at is unacceptable!"

"Well," Neptune said, looking to Mewtwo, "sorry about that."

Mewtwo merely shrugged. "It's no trouble," he said. "It was merely an idea."

He teleported away, as Neptune looked back to find Blanc continuing her ranting. "Uh... Blanny? You alright?" she asked.

"No! No I am not!" Blanc replied.

"Well, what should we do?" Noire asked.

"The only thing that's gonna calm me down," Blanc replied, "is finding the bastards that programmed that piece of shit and shoving a Master Ball down their throats!"

She stomped away, dragging her hammer devilishly behind her! "She'll be fine," Vert replied. "Just let her blow off steam."

The other CPUs decided that it'd be best they just go about their days and continue their work. They let all the Fighters know that new Final Smash moves were hereby unallowed in the same Tournament, no exceptions. Merely buffs or debuffs to encourage balance amongst those stronger or weaker than the majority. In addition, they all made sure to let them know to steer clear of Blanc until further notice.

Epilogue:

"Hey, speaking of clones," Neptune said thoughtfully, "yo Nep Jr., what did you do with Nepgya?"

"Huh?" Nepgear asked. "You want to know where she is? Oh don't worry. I found a good place for her to be kept~" she replied, a distinctly sinister expression on her face, punctuated by a rather devilish giggle.

Neptune shuddered a little under Nepgear's tone. "W-woah... Jr. That sounded suspiciously whenever Plutia gets Sadie mode. Now I'm a little worried."

Meanwhile, Nepgya stood perfectly still with her derpy, meme ridden face firing off on all cylinders. Then, a fist connected straight with her, launching her into the stratosphere! DK taunted by shaking his hands at the nonexistent crowd, before Nepgya reappeared in front of him. Donkey got off the platform, allowing Captain Falcon to take his place, shooting a Falcon Punch directly into Nepgya's gut, launching her straight on into the distance!

As a special request to Master Hand that Nepgear herself had made, Nepgya was used in place of the nostalgic Sandbag for Home Run Contests and Training for Fighters to needlessly abuse. This was becoming especially clear to Tails and Captain Toad as they watched Cloud take Captain Falcon's place, delivering a crushing hit with his fully charged Limit Break Buster Sword, that sent Nepgya flying into space again!

"Uh..." Tails said. "Should... should we do something about this?"

"W-what do you mean?" Captain Toad asked, every bit as disturbed despite his question.

"I mean..." Tails said. "That poor Nepgya is being... terribly abused..."

"Well..." Captain Toad replied. "She... she is an artificial human. And Nepgear did specifically request this. Plus, she's been at this for over a month now. So she should be fine. Right?"

Suddenly, Nepgya crumpled upon respawning on the platform, body covered in... oil? from the repeated injuries that she'd sustained.

"Nepgear did specifically ask for her to be repaired after every match, right?" Tails asked.

"I want to say yes," Captain Toad replied. "But I'm fairly certain now that is not the case."

"NEPGYAAAAA~"

A/N: This was another short chapter that I came up with fairly early on. I don't know why, but for some reason when Smash Ultimate first came out I thought that perhaps Shadow Mewtwo could end up being a Final Smash for the cloned Pokemon himself, and upon discovering just how terribly powerful he actually is, I thought of this.

I also discovered from this chapter that I totally need to give poor Blanc a break! I mean for crying out loud! Maybe in the near future I can do a chapter where Blanc takes a day off, only to discover that was a terribly idea.

Also, this is where Nepgya is. In case anyone was wondering. I also figured that I had a bit of a sadistic side for poor Rei and her. I'm actually surprised nobody commented about what Rei is up to as of yet. But, eh, it happens.

For Reviews this time around, not to many once again. For ChimaTigon who simply came up with "Tangent?" for the last chapter, in case you're wondering what Noire was ranting about, as Sans himself said that was far too graphic to be posted on this website. So you can't see it. And to the guest who requested Anonydeath messing with the girls. I concur! And anyone else who has more requests for other Neptunia characters showing up, let me know! I know we got at least one for Arfoire and trust me, she'll show up. Soon! And nobody can guess how she'll first appear, you just can't. You wont' figure it out, so don't!

Anyway, thank you as always for reading. Let me know any more suggestions you guys have, and your thoughts on any of the previous chapters! And until next time, have a wonderful evening! And take care!
