Mew is a hidden Pokémon from the first generation games. The only legitimate way to gain Mew at the time was by having it transferred into the game by a Nintendo representative, usually at some contest or event. There are also glitches and cheating devices that have been used to gain Mew. Pokémon: Emerald Version is the first mainstream game in which Mew is actually found in the game, although a special item from Nintendo is needed to reach Mew.

Information

Mew is a small and mysterious Pokémon that some consider to be a myth. This is due to the fact that it often uses its powers to teleport away or turn invisible, giving the illusion that it is no more than a mirage. It is believed that only one with a pure heart and a strong desire to see Mew will see it. Mew hails from South America, and it has the genetic codes of all Pokémon, leading some to believe that Mew is actually the ancestor of all Pokémon, though with the introduction of Arceus, the "Alpha Pokémon" in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, this has become somewhat debated.

Due to having the genetic code of all Pokémon, Mew is able to learn any move from a TM or HM. Mew is also the only Pokémon known to have given live birth, to the creature that was dubbed Mewtwo in the Cinnabar Mansion on Cinnabar Island. However, Mew is not assigned a gender in the games and is incapable of breeding with other Pokémon.

Other Games

Pokémon Snap revolved around the Pokémon photographer Todd. He almost snaps a picture of Mew in the opening movie but misses. Mew is found on the game's final level, Rainbow Cloud and is the only Pokémon found in the area. Mew floats casually in an energy bubble which protects it from getting its picture taken. Todd must toss countless Pester Balls at the shield in order to break it. Afterwards, Todd has one brief chance to photograph Mew before it teleports away.

Mew is found at Indigo Plateau in Pokémon Pinball. In both Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Stadium 2, Mew appears as a Rental Pokémon in R2 Mode.

In Pokémon Trozei!, Mew can only be found in Mr. Who's Den. Mew makes rare appearances the Buried Relic area of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon if the player has a Music Box in their inventory, and in this game it often used Transform to imitate other Pokémon until defeated. Mew could be recruited only if the Final Island Friend Area had been purchased. In Pokémon Ranger, Mew was found in Lila Forest during the third event mission.

Other Appearances

Other Games

  • Mew also appears in Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl, where it can be randomly summoned from a Pokéball. Mew will float away without affecting the battle at all, beyond granting a large amount of bonus points to the player who released it. In Brawl, Mew will also drop a collectible CD as it flies away. A Mew trophy is available in both Melee and Brawl.

Other Media

  • Mew was featured in two of the Pokémon anime movies, the first and the eighth. In the first movie, Mew appeared and aided Ash and the others in fighting and defeating Mewtwo. The eighth movie explored Mew's origins and elaborates on the idea that Mew is the ancestor of all Pokémon.
