I need a opinion about my mewtwos

Hi guys!!
in first place sorry if I commit somes grammatical errors, I am from Brazil.
So, the question is, I have 2 lv 35 Shadow ball Mewtwo
14/14/15 96%
15/11/15 91%
an I am thinking of get a second charge move for them.
But I am with only 90 rare candys(I can get the other 10 in some days) and 200k dust.
Do you think this is a good play? which of the 2 I should get the second move first? Which the best moveset for pvp and for pvE for mewtwo? confusion or psycho cut?
Help me people!!! =D

Psycho cut is mewtwo's best fast move in all but one case these days. (that case being mewtwo fighting pokemon weak to psychic)

A bit more information on what other pokemon you have would be useful, like other legendaries. Mewtwo, with the other moves is very strong, but there are many nonlegendary substitutes that can do the same type offense as mewtwo's other moves (aside from psychic and shadow ball) and do those better/cheaper.

Mewtwo from what ive seen in PvP is very hit or miss, its strong, but it often doesnt have the bulk to deal with things like B/C tyranitar, which is very common and extremely dependent on having all the shields gone to be able to do things effectively. Shadow ball's its main move ive seen, after that maybe ice beam, but that is mostly for legacy dragonite. If you plan to add one, focus blast or ice beam are the best to add

Please shut up!!!! You don’t PVP, your insane bias against Mewtwo is almost as pathetic as your Machamp bias.... you are one of the least knowledgeable posters on this board... you can’t even figure out what to bring to an Latias raid on your own yet you constantly feel somehow justified in belittling everyone you can and making this half assed pompous answers to every single question asked!!!!

If you know so much about my prior postings, then how is it you missed a while back when I was able to start doing pvp? You are the one with a bias here. Mewtwo is in all offensive match ups aside from psychic inferior to nonlegendary alternatives, it is good but not the best, and I have not spoken poorly of machamp in several months.

You seem to have a personal problem with me and I quite frankly do not understand it

Lemywinks70, do you have a better actual answer to the original question? If not, please shut up. I have reported your post.

Get a second move for the 96% Mewtwo. I think Ice Beam is an ok move for PvP.

I agree, give the 96% a second charge move! You can waste a lot of charge TM's getting the move you want. I suggest stopping on Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, or Focus Blast and try it out. Also, be super careful not to remove Shadow Ball.

I'd lean towards Focus Blast, because it has very high damage per energy (better than Shadow Ball in PvP), and is great at dispensing with those pesky Tyranitars that resist psychic and ghost. Ice is also good, Ttar is neutral, many other things are weak to it (dragons, for example). Only problem with Focus Blast is that it takes 75 energy to do 150 damage, which will trash almost anything with plenty of overkill, and makes it slow relative to a 55 energy move.

Follow-up: on the other hand, at some point Mewtwo will probably get a shiny and its signature move, Psystrike, which in PvP does as much damage as Psychic for 55 energy, 15 less than Psychic. That could also be a winning move, so you might consider saving one Mewtwo for Shadow Ball/Psystrike. Should be really good in PvE too. I'm pretty confident that Niantic is waiting until power creep weakens Mewtwo enough (relative to other pokemon) to give it that boost. And then, those non Shadow ball Mewtwo from Mewtwo's raid month will have some utility - Psystrike to be the best psychic attacker in the game by a wide margin, plus another move sometimes for variety.

How would a mewtwo get both shadow ball and psystrike (though that would be awesome)? If they do a release like with SA moltres, we likely wont be able to get both moves.

Confusion is superior to Psycho Cut when the opposing Pokemon is either Neutral (PvE only) or Weak (both) to Psychic Type.

Psycho Cut is always superior to Confusion on PvP, except if the opposing Pokemon either resists Mewtwo's Charged Move(s) or it is Weak to Psychic Type. In PvE, it is only superior when the opposing Pokemon either resists Psychic Type or is Double Weak to Mewtwo's Charged Move(s).
