I'm sorry, but that is one of the most ridiculous statements made in this thread.
Weather is one of the most unpredictable and difficult to control elements in the world.
As I stated, even our forecasts are highly inaccurate, reletive to what else we can measure.
With all the raw power we can create, how come we can't create a true tornado?
The level of finess required to control them is far beyond our technology, but not the raw power.
So it is both, a display of finess and a display of power.
The mechanics that stand are those that are established in-canon.
Ok, I'll give you that.
I'm sold, Samus again punches out Cthulhu.
But it lacks the fine control that mewtwo has displayed.
But, the fact is that then her psionics greviously injur samus, which does the opposite of implying that samus has an inborn resistence.
If he had the telekenetic abilities (remember he only displayed telepathy), then yes. And again, he never SHOWED precise control, wide-beaming a transmission to the entire galaxy is raw power, not control.
Assuming that again, his blasts were psionic in nature (which is never established), he should've been able to wide-beam them like his transmission and literally puddle samus' brain unless she had displayed complete immunity to psionics, specifically telepathy.
Which she hasn't.
Basically, you're argument doesn't really establish that samus could beat mewtwo, just that samus has a tendancy to be pitted against enemies that she never should've beaten, and the games just require her to, therefore, a wizard does it.
How so?
Hold her telekenetically and she's done. She's also shown no real resistence to telepathy.
It's not so much the fact that she's weak as the fact that psionics are god-mode broken except in universes where it's universal, or easily countered in some way.
Again, the transform is an assisted thing. She is incapable of doing that without the ghosts, or at least hasn't shown that.
So? That doesn't mean that she transforms into energy to do that, molecular compression is fine.
As for the rest, it's the implications of reletively finely controlled psionics with sufficent power behind them.
I've been saying this from the beginning, once you look into the implications of psionics, you realize that they're completely broken, especially when you reach the high end of finess, almost irregardless of power.
Evidence that the blasts are psionic? He's an energy being, but that doesn't mean his blasts are automatically telepathic attacks.
But again, not really. It shows how screwed up it was that samus won that fight. Samus has a combination of conventional and unconventional weapons. Gorea is an eldritch abomination with the ability to be immune to weapons and incorperate them into itself.
Samus, really shouldn't have stood a chance, and if he really does have the ability to make psionic attacks, he's high enough on the power scale to wide-beam them and puddle samus' brain anyway. He just conveinently DIDN'T.
Really, I'd love to talk about what Gorea COULD do, frankly they're pretty god-mode.
Why would Mewtwo throw her?
She would CRUSH her.
The problem is actually getting the hit, as I explained MANY times before.
Here's the problem with that assumption, "samus just screw-attacked through the big bang".
It gives her invincability frames in-game, but what the attack does canonically is more important to the discussion, it surrounds her with plasma and electricity.
That might burn through some materials, and make touching her a bad idea, and be a very powerful attack, but it's NO detterent to psionics.
The point is that psionics allow selective deflection/countermeasures, which combined with mewtwo's ability to sense samus' actions before they occur, mean that she should never ever hit mewtwo.
Basically it's like Ganondorf vs. wario. Ganondorf has a grab release infinite on wario, but will ganondorf ever grab wario? Not really, wario has far more then sufficent tools to avoid a grab, even though it's a 0-death.
Mewtwo can of course, hold her in place, and crush her telekenetically, which can happen from anywhere, has no charge up, and no travel time.
1) Because it is an attack and it does not make any sense at all. Example: Gyarados creates twisters with no wings at all and pidgey can use razor wind with those very tiny wings of his. It is a learned tachnique,just like RPG characters learn how to shoot lighting bolts from their hands, pokemon learn these attacks with the help of TMs.
If anything, Mewtwo might as well have learned how to do that with the help of TMs.
2) And it has not been shown in any kind of canon that pokemon have more than 4 attacks at once or that they can do anything else without attacks. As well as Psychic and confusion has not been shown to do anything other than fling people around.
3)I think you missed the part where I said that it was the most powerful psionic attack in the universe and that a fully upgraded samus can survive it 3 times before being crippled.
4)Because nothing can get inside the powersuit, only Samus. dark Aether is an example of that. Every attempt to enter it were met with the death of the pirates themselves, without piercing their armor, while Samus could survive in that environment because the darkness could not attack her directly.
And there is also the X, which infected her suit but did not manage to get to Samus herself. You must first deplete her energy field before getting anywhere near her.
5)There is also the fact that she has Chozo blood, that gives her psychic powers and most likely gives her the ability to resist mental assaults, otherwise making her the perfect warrior without giving her inmunity to Mother Brain, who was one of the chozo most powerful invention, would have stupid.
There is also her power suit. See above. That is a counter.
6) In every game she has shown the ability to transform by her own will. See: Metroid Corruption. In fact, the power suit IS her. She materializes her power suit using her power suit around her, she keeps her upgrades INSIDE her and she can dematerialize her body when using the morphball.
7)See above. She is the power suit. It has been organicaly added to her body.
8) Again, you are seeing the implications, but in the games and in pretty much every canon, Mewtwo's attacks has not been shown to do anything other than fling people around. There is no psycho crush or anything like that.
In fact, psychic is actually nothing more than a psychic beam or attack. Look at their descriptions.

9) You are still underestimating Samus's powers. In the manga, her power is said to rival that of a fully grown metroid, and that it vastly surprases that of mother brain.
Samus is the ultimate warrior of the universe, she is not a common soldier.
10) There is no psycho crush in the games. And the power suit will not break or be damaged unless Mewtwo can pierce through it.
11) The Metroid Prime 2 Log-book reads: It transforms you into a moving ball of energy. And it makes sense considering Samus has shown that ability multiple times.
And it gives her invincibility frames bcause of the fact that she transforms herself into energy.
12) so you are basicaly saying that mewtwo could use future sight to sense an attack and then dodge it and counter attack, as the attack descrption implies. But of course, future sight is very limited, and only lets you see a few attacks during the match, not every single one.
And there is no psycho crush. Confusion is just a psychic attack where mewtwo flings the opponent against the wall, and the same applies to psychic, just stronger.
