Mewtwo’s weaknesses: As Mewtwo is a Psychic-type Pokémon, it is particularly weak against the attacks of Bug, Ghost, and Dark types. Therefore, you should use these in battle to defeat it quickly.
Can you catch Shiny Mewtwo? Yes, with a bit of luck you might encounter a shiny Mewtwo after the raid. You can recognize it by its green belly and tail.
How many trainers are needed? To defeat Mewtwo, 3 trainers with at least Trainer Level 40 and the best counters are sufficient. However, we recommend having a few more trainers for a more relaxed battle.
