After his daughter, {{an|Amber}}, died, Dr. Fuji devoted his life to trying to bring her back through the usage of cloning. His wife was distraught and could not continue watching his endeavors, insisting that he could not bring Amber back to life. She left him, yet Fuji still worked.

Eventually, his studies gained the attention of {{an|Giovanni}}, who said he would fund Fuji's project if Fuji also cloned the [[legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Mew}}. This resulted in the creation of {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}}.

After the original {{p|Charmander}}two, {{p|Bulbasaur}}two, and {{p|Squirtle}}two died during the experiment, Ambertwo—the cloned form of Amber—died as well, eliciting a heightened emotional response from Mewtwo. Dr. Fuji panicked and administered a form of emotion-suppressing serum to Mewtwo, which may have caused its seemingly-twisted personality. Time passed and Mewtwo matured, though shortly after gaining consciousness, it destroyed the lab on [[New Island]], presumably killing everyone—including Fuji. A record of Fuji's final words survived the explosion, which Mewtwo ended up keeping, and was later discovered by [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, who had snuck into New Island.
