There's a lot to dig into so buckle up for an extra special, oversized episode of Beyond the Ball! Follow along with the entries below: Red and Blue: It was created by a scientist after years of horrific gene splicing and DNA engineering experiments. Yellow: Its DNA is almost the same as MEW’s. However, its size and disposition are vastly different. Gold: Because its battle abilities were raised to the ultimate level, it thinks only of defeating its foes. Silver: It usually remains motionless to conserve energy, so that it may unleash its full power in battle. Crystal: Said to rest quietly in an undiscovered cave, this POKéMON was created solely for battling. Ruby and Sapphire: MEWTWO is a POKéMON that was created by genetic manipulation. However, even though the scientific power of humans created this POKéMON’s body, they failed to endow MEWTWO with a compassionate heart. FireRed: A POKéMON whose genetic code was repeatedly recombined for research. It turned vicious as a result. Emerald: A POKéMON that was created by genetic manipulation. However, even though the scientific power of humans made its body, they failed to give it a warm heart. Diamond, Pearl & Platinum: A Pokémon created by recombining MEW’s genes. It’s said to have the most savage heart among Pokémon. Sword: Created from the DNA of Mew, this Pokémon is a dangerous combination of overwhelming power and a savage heart. Shield: The research efforts of a certain scientist ultimately resulted in this Pokémon. Its powers are dedicated to battling. BTB: Perhaps the most misunderstood Pokemon of all time, it should probably just be left alone.
