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.
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.
Appearances
Mainstream Games
Mew has only been found on Faraway Island in Pokémon: Emerald Version.
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 also appears in Pokémon Trozei! Pokémon Mystery Dungeon and Pokémon Ranger.
Trivia
- Mew also appears in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, 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. A Mew trophy is also available in the second game.
- 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.
