- I Am Here
Mewtwo! I Am Here aired as an end-of-the-year TV special in December 2000. It is a sequel to the movie Mewtwo Strikes Back.
The English title given for this special in Japan is Mewtwo Lives, as seen in the eyecatches.
While various TV openings / endings had played around with the use of digital ink and paint before, this is the first full Pocket Monsters production to be colored entirely by computers.
The special is aired as three separate episodes whenever it's rerun in Japan.
Almost all of the characters introduced in this special are played by voice actors who had roles in The Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon series. Domino is played by Mitsu'ishi Kotono (Tsukino Usagi / Sailor Moon), Luna is played by Hisakawa Aya (Mizuno Ami / Sailor Mercury), and Luka is played by Touma Yumi (Ann in Sailor Moon R).

After the events on New Island, Mewtwo and the clone
pokemon have relocated to Pures Rock (ピュアズロック) in order to live in a
peaceful life away from humans. However, Sakaki, the leader of
the Rocket-Dan and the man who used to own Mewtwo as a weapon, has
tracked down the man-made pokemon and plans to take it back no matter
what!
After missing a sightseeing bus to Pures Rock, Satoshi and his friends wait for the next one inside a cabin belonging to researchers Luna Carson, Penicillina, and their assistant Domino. Suddenly, Musashi, Kojirou, and Nyasu appear and make off with Pikachu! During the chase that ensues, Satoshi and his friends make it over the steep cliffs that had served as a barrier preventing outsiders from entering Pures Rock. They also discover that Domino is actually an agent working for the Rocket-Dan!
Once inside, Domino calls on Sakaki and the rest of the organization to launch an attack on the land. Will Sakaki be able to smoke Mewtwo out and reclaim the pokemon's amazing power? Will this newest aggression by the Rocket-Dan undo all the progress Mewtwo had made in trusting mankind again? What will happen to the pokemon, originals and clones alike?
