In Japan the theatrical version had only two home video releases (VHS, February 12, 1999; LaserDisc, July 17, 1999) and was never shown on TV. A new version of the movie, know as the ''kanzenban'' (Japanese: 完全版 ''full version''), has been shown in all television airings in Japan (the first one being on July 8, 1999) and in the Japanese home video releases from the third one (VHS, November 12, 1999) onward: this version contains additional scenes and CGI edits.

Similar to ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' and ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]'', the ''Kanzenban'' version of this movie was digitally remastered to HD, complete with slight color correction. An error is also corrected where [[Raymond]]'s {{p|Machamp}} now comes out of its [[Poké Ball]] only once. It was released on Blu-Ray in Japan November 28, 2012 with a boxset containing all the movies up to [[M13]], and aired on May 3, 2013 on [[TV Tokyo]]. The dub (which retains the [[4Kids Entertainment|4Kids]] audio) aired on Cartoon Network January 4, 2014, and was re-released on [[Pokémon TV]] June 6, 2015. In addition to all of the changes in the Japanese version, [[The Uncut Story of Mewtwo's Origin]] is once again cut out, along with the Alakazam error in the Cartoon Network version. The opening{{tt|*|Cartoon Network version only, they are removed from the Pokémon TV version}} and ending{{tt|*|Pokémon TV re-release only}} credits are retyped in a [[The Pokémon Company International|TPCi]] font instead of {{wp|Comic Sans}}, and the copyright year 2014 (2015 for the re-release) was added to the end of the credits.

* Mewtwo's personality and goal are different between the original and dub. In the dub, Mewtwo is more boastful about its powers and certain about superiority to Mew and wants to destroy the world with a hurricane it created to get revenge on humanity. In the original, Mewtwo is instead portrayed as a confused being and, while its motive is still to get revenge on humanity, it is not the destruction of the world by means of the storm, but the actual confrontation between Mewtwo and the trainers that is its goal, with the storm used as a test that the trainers had to get through.
