'''Mew''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウ''' ''Mew'') is a {{type|Psychic}} [[Mythical Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation I]].


It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.  
It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.


Mew is notable for its unique ability to learn every [[TM|Technical Machine]], [[HM|Hidden Machine]] and [[Move Tutor]] move (except those exclusive to a particular Pokémon or group of Pokémon, such as {{m|Draco Meteor}} and {{m|Secret Sword}}).
Mew is notable for its unique ability to learn every [[TM|Technical Machine]], [[TR|Technical Record]], [[HM|Hidden Machine]], and [[Move Tutor]] move (except those exclusive to a particular Pokémon or group of Pokémon, such as {{m|Volt Tackle}} and {{m|Secret Sword}}).


Mew is the last Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]].  
It is associated with {{p|Mewtwo}}, and thus they are collectively referred to as the [[Mew duo]] by fans.


It is a member of the [[Mew duo]] along with {{p|Mewtwo}}.
Mew was first officially revealed in the May 1996 issue of [[CoroCoro]],<ref>https://www.zoidsland.com/1rebyu-/koro96-5.html</ref> less than two months after [[Pokémon Red and Green]] were released in Japan.


==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mew is a pink, bipedal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with {{wp|mammal}}ian features. It has a rounded, wide snout; triangular ears; and large, blue eyes. It has short arms with three-fingered paws and large hind paws with oval markings on the soles. Its tail is long and thin with an ovoid tip. Its fur is so fine and thin, it can only be seen under a microscope.
Mew is normally described as a pink, {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a bipedal, tailed form|bipedal}} cat-like creature, though its morphology is actually more like a {{wp|jerboa}}. Mew's hair is so fine and thin, it can only be seen under a microscope. It has a long, skinny tail ending with a rounded tip. Mew has big hind legs, like a {{wp|rabbit}}, and short arms with three-fingered paws. Mew's feet are very large with oval markings near its three toes. Mew has triangular ears and baby blue eyes. Mew is said to have the {{wp|DNA}} of every single Pokémon contained within its body. It also vaguely resembles an embryo or fetus, and is often depicted in a pink orb.


====Gender differences====
Mew has shown a playful, childish personality, showing signs of high intelligence, curiosity, shyness, playfulness, and even selflessness. It is said to have the {{wp|DNA}} of every single Pokémon contained within its body. This causes many scientists to theorize that Mew is the ancestor of all {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It is an incredibly adaptable species, capable of levitation and teleportation. It can use almost all known [[move]]s, regardless of their [[type]]s. It has also shown the rare power to {{m|Transform|transform into all known Pokémon}}. It is capable of making itself invisible at will, so it entirely avoids notice even if it approaches people. As seen on several occasions, it has the ability to create an orb of energy around itself for protection, which can come in many colors, such as green, yellow, and pink.
Mew is a genderless species.


===Special abilities===
According to [[Pokémon Mansion journals|journals]] found in [[Kanto]]'s {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}}, [[Mr. Fuji]] is the one who discovered Mew deep in the jungle and coined its name. With other scientists, he managed to gather some of Mew's DNA and used it in his mansion to create a modified clone of it, aiming it to be the most powerful Pokémon of all, which resulted in the birth of the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Mewtwo}}. Since Mew can make itself invisible, very few people have {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon|seen it}}, leading some scientists to declare it extinct and most to assume it to be nothing, but a mirage. However, sightings of it are still being reported to this day, confirming its existence. Even though it's rarely seen, it will willingly show itself to a person who is pure of heart and has a strong desire to see it.
Mew's main abilities include turning invisible at will (similar to {{p|Victini}}), creating force-fields of psychic energy and being able to {{m|transform}} into any one of the other {{#expr:{{numpkmn}} - 1}} species of Pokémon. Mew is capable of wielding every [[type]] of attack possible. It also has the ability to float in mid-air, in much the same fashion as {{p|Celebi}} and {{p|Jirachi}}. It has been seen to be able to swim underwater as well.


===Behavior===
According to the anime's radio drama, ''[[The Birth of Mewtwo]]'', Mew was discovered by [[Jessie]]'s mother, [[Miyamoto]], who registered its cry in a forest 20 years before the events of the series. It was worshiped for its protection by ancient people who created a song in its honor and believed it appeared once a year with the rising sun. It wasn't rediscovered until 18 years after Miyamoto met Mew by sunrise on the peak of a high mountain. As depicted in the episode ''[[JN134|In the Palms of our Hands!]]'' it is capable of splitting itself up and transforming into more than one Pokémon at the same time. [[Mew (M01)|It]] was also shown to possess a strong rivalry with its clone, [[Mewtwo (M01)|Mewtwo]] in [[M01|''Mewtwo Strikes Back'']].
Mew is a very curious and intelligent Pokémon that will only appear to someone with a pure heart. It loves playing around and swimming, and is known to act very childish at times, wanting everybody it trusts to play with it. It is attracted to {{wp|lullaby|lullabies}} and will try to stay as close to the music as possible. All in all, Mew is known as a happy, playful and optimistic species of Pokémon, unlike its clone, {{p|Mewtwo}}.


===Habitat===
Mew is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of using the [[Z-Move]] {{m|Genesis Supernova}}.
[[File:Rare.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]
Reports found in [[Cinnabar Island]]'s {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} region speak of expeditions of scientists, either independent or [[Team Rocket]]-funded, which had sighted Mew in [[Guyana]], South America, the place where its first sighting was reported. However, since Mew can either make itself invisible or transform itself into any other Pokémon, very few people have knowingly seen it, and it is called a mirage by most. Since many scientists believe that Mew is the ancestor of all Pokémon, and a number of extraterrestrial Pokémon have been discovered, it is possible that Mew could [[Extraterrestrial Pokémon|inhabit other areas of the universe]], and whether it originates from [[Pokémon world|Earth]] at all is debatable.


===Diet===
==Game data==
{{main|Pokémon food}}
===NPC appearances===
Considering Mew's unique lifestyle as a floating Psychic Pokémon, and that no terrestrial animal resembles it, there is no known diet for Mew.
 
==In the anime==
{{spoilers}}
{{spoilers}}
[[File:Mew movie 8.png|thumb|250px|right|Mew in the anime]]
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}: Mew is the guardian of the [[Seven Treasures|Grass Cornet]].
===Major appearances===
* {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}: The {{OBP|partner Pokémon|Mystery Dungeon}} was Mew in their former life, working to fight against [[Dark Matter]] and creating the [[Harmony Scarf|Harmony Scarves]]. In the post-game, the [[Hero Pokémon|hero]] goes to the {{OBP|Mystery Jungle|Super Mystery Dungeon}} and meets a different Mew, who is later revealed to have the partner's spirit sealed inside them.
====[[Mew (M01)]]====
* [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]]: Mew takes Pikachu and their friends {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Piplup}}, and {{p|Charmander}} to the {{ga|PokéPark}}. He then appears to Pikachu in a dream once they've arrived in the PokéPark and tells Pikachu to collect pieces of the [[Sky Prism]] so that peace can be restored to the PokéPark. Once all the pieces have been obtained, Mew awaits Pikachu at the [[Sky Pavilion]] where he plays. In this game, Mew is referred to as male, despite having {{DL|gender|unknown gender}} in the [[core series]].
In this movie, Mew made a couple of cameo appearances at the start of the movie. A {{an|Mewtwo}} was cloned from Mew's DNA, extracted from Mew's eyelash. Later, Mew started appearing around [[New Island]] while Mewtwo was testing his [[starter Pokémon]] clones. Mew followed [[Team Rocket]] into the main part of the island so it could stop Mewtwo from destroying the world. After the end credits of the movie, Mew is shown flying to the mountains.
{{endspoilers}}


In the Japanese version, Mew's characterization was different. Mew's intention was to wipe out cloned Pokémon, Mewtwo included, because it viewed them as inferior, in stark contrast to Mewtwo, who wished to eliminate natural-born.
===Pokédex entries===
The Pokédex entry from Japanese [[Pokémon Blue (Japanese)|Pokémon Blue]] and [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|LeafGreen]] had some localization changes:


Mew makes a small appearance in the hour-length special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', the sequel to ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. Mewtwo sees it after being thrown into the Purity Spring.
* 「いまでも まぼろしの ポケモンと いわれる。そのすがたを みたものは ぜんこくでも ほとんど いない。」 (''It is still called a Mythical Pokémon. Its shape was seen by almost no one in the entire country.''){{sup/1|B}}{{sup/3|LG}}
*: This entry uses the Japanese term for [[Mythical Pokémon]] (literally: ''Illusory Pokémon''), but it predates the definitive [[Terminology of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon|split between Legendary and Mythical]] in English media. The localization calls Mew a "mirage" instead.
*: In the localization, Mew is said to be a mirage by "many experts". However, the Japanese text does not mention any experts.
*: In Japanese, it is said that almost no one has seen Mew in the entire country ({{ruby|全国|ぜんこく}}). In English, this was changed to "worldwide".


====[[Mew (M08)]]====
In the German version of [[Pokémon Stadium]], Mew's entry does not mention South America; instead, it says that Mew has been seen in "Niemandsland" (''No Man's Land'').
Another Mew first appeared transformed as a {{p|Ho-Oh}}, and then as a {{p|Taillow}}, landing on [[Cameran Palace]] and then {{m|transform}}ing into {{p|Treecko}}. It then transformed into an {{p|Aipom}} to play with [[Ash's Pikachu]]. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} released their Pokémon to play with what they thought was an Aipom.


After taking them to an attic, [[Kidd Summers]] sent her two {{p|Weavile}} after it. To escape, it {{m|teleport}}ed itself, along with Pikachu and {{MTR}}. It then transformed once again into a {{p|Pidgeot}} and flew the Pokémon to the [[Tree of Beginning]]. While Ash and the others were looking for Pikachu, Mew kept it entertained with toys.

Mew also nearly sacrificed itself to save the Tree of Beginning. {{mov|Lucario|Lucario|08}} stepped in and was able to save Mew, but ended up sacrificing itself. Mew is believed to still reside at the Tree of Beginning. It is last seen playing with a {{p|Bonsly}}.

===Minor appearances===
Also, in [[Pokémon Stadium]] and {{g|Stadium 2}}, Mew is available as a [[rental Pokémon]] after the player beats Round 1 of the [[Prime Cup]].
[[Lawrence III]]'s actions in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' were apparently set in motion due to an Ancient Mew card; the card itself was actually shown in the movie.


A Mew appeared in the opening of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.

A Mew appeared in the [[boss fantasy]] of ''[[DP092|A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!]]''. As of this episode, every {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}} has appeared in at least one episode of the anime.
|}


==In the manga==
===Held items===
[[File:Mew Adventures.png|right|thumb|Mew as it appears in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga]]
Pokémon caught in [[Generation I]] must be traded to a [[Generation II]] game in order for a held item to appear.
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Mew debuted in the first round of the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, ''[[PS001|A Glimpse of the Glow]]''. Here, {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} see one in [[Pallet Town]] and try to catch it, but fail. It is known as the "Phantom Pokémon" and was chased by [[Team Rocket]].
 
Team Rocket's chase would continue all the way to {{DL|Pokémon Adventures volume 2|the next volume}}, where they attempt to regain the disc containing Mew's habitat and information from {{adv|Green}}, but fail and are tricked into stealing an empty one she prepared. They catch up to Green and her unwilling ally Red soon afterward, and interrupt them when they tracked down and attempted to capture the rare Pokémon. However, when their {{p|Jynx}} was able to almost succeed, Mew's powerful Psychic attack left them listless, and soon escaped. The small samples of its DNA that the Rockets acquired, however, led to the creation of its powerful clone.
 
Another volume later, Mew is briefly seen looking into [[Indigo Plateau]] after Red wins the Pokémon League championship and decides to return to Pallet Town with his two fellow [[Pokédex Holder]]s.
 
It later reappeared in the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, where it saved Red and the people of [[Vermilion City]] from the impending crash of the TR helicopter. {{adv|Mewtwo}} notices this, and realizes that he too had a root to trace itself back to, as it was born from Mew's eyelash.
 
===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
A Mew appeared in ''[[PM004|Obtain the Moon Stone!!]]''. This one is actually a woman who was accidentally transformed after an experiment went wrong. She turns back later to her normal form.
 
{{OBP|Giovanni|Pocket Monsters}} catches Mew as part of the supplies used for the creation of {{p|Mewtwo}}. It was released along with Mewtwo after the creation was unsuccessful.
 
===In the Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire manga===
{{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} befriended a Mew in ''[[PMRS50|Showdown! Clefairy VS Mew!!]]''.
 
==In the TCG==
{{main|Mew (TCG)}}
 
==Other appearances==
[[File:SSBB Mew.png|right|thumb|200px|Mew in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
In Super Smash Bros. Mew will sometimes appear out of a [[Poké Ball]]. When summoned, it will use {{m|Fly}} to leave the arena. In single player, the summoner is awarded the "Mew Catcher" bonus, worth 10,000 points.
 
After unlocking every character in Melee, there is a 1 in 251 chance of Mew appearing from a Poké Ball. The thrower of the Poké Ball receives the same "Mew Catcher" bonus.
 
Mew returns again as a rare Pokémon in Brawl, the chance of it appearing is 1 in 493 this time. Like the other "secret" Pokémon, it drops rare items instead of just flying away. In Mew's case, the items are CDs. However, once all the pick-up CDs are obtained, it will drop Stickers instead.
 
====Melee trophy information====
''Mew is an extremely rare Pokémon that has been seen by only a few people. Information on every Pokémon in the world is contained in Mew's cell structure, so it has the ability to use any and all TMs and HMs. Some Pokémon scholars believe Mew to be the ancestor of all existing Pokémon, but the idea is debatable.''
 
====Brawl trophy information====
 
''"A New Species Pokémon. An extremely rare Pokémon that contains the DNA of all other Pokémon, it is thought by many scholars to be a Pokémon ancestor, considering the wide range of moves it can use. On top of being able to make itself invisible, Mew can also {{m|transform}} into any opponent Pokémon and use characteristics and moves in exactly the same way."''
 
==={{g|Snap}}===
Mew appears in the seventh course, [[Rainbow Cloud]]. Although the game is not combat-oriented, the difficulty of photographing Mew effectively makes it the game's boss. Mew floats in a bubble that turns opaque when the zoom is activated, so players must throw a series of Pester Balls or Food at it to break the bubble so Mew will come out for a clear shot. Photographing Mew gets an automatic bonus of 2500 points, making it the highest ranking Pokémon in the game with a highest possible score of 10,000 points with perfect positioning, size and pose.
 
==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}: Mew is the guardian of the [[Seven Treasures|Grass Cornet]].
* In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]] Mew takes Pikachu and their friends {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Piplup}}, and {{p|Charmander}} to the {{ga|PokéPark}}. He then appears to Pikachu in a dream once they've arrived in the PokéPark and tells Pikachu to collect pieces of the [[Sky Prism]] so that peace can be restored to the PokéPark. Once all the pieces have been obtained Mew awaits Pikachu at the [[Sky Pavilion]] where he plays. In this game, Mew is referred to as male, despite being genderless in the main series.

Mew returns again as a rare Pokémon in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], the chance of it appearing is 1 in 493 this time. Like the other "secret" Pokémon, it drops rare items instead of just flying away. In Mew's case, the items are CDs. However, once all the pick-up CDs are obtained, it will drop Stickers instead.
 
Mew returns in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]] and comes out of a Poké Ball (rarely) and/or Master Ball (rare, but less rare than a Poké Ball).
 
Mew returns yet again in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]], once again as a rare Poké Ball summon, but also as a {{sbw|Spirit}}.
 
Throughout the series, Mew, much like Mewtwo, is roughly akin to its portrayal in [[M01|the first movie]], especially having Kōichi Yamadera reprise his role.
 
====Melee trophy information====
''Mew is an extremely rare Pokémon that has been seen by only a few people. Information on every Pokémon in the world is contained in Mew's cell structure, so it has the ability to use any and all TMs and HMs. Some Pokémon scholars believe Mew to be the ancestor of all existing Pokémon, but the idea is debatable.''
 
====Brawl trophy information====
''"A New Species Pokémon. An extremely rare Pokémon that contains the DNA of all other Pokémon, it is thought by many scholars to be a Pokémon ancestor, considering the wide range of moves it can use. On top of being able to make itself invisible, Mew can also {{m|transform}} into any opponent Pokémon and use characteristics and moves in exactly the same way."''
 
====3DS/Wii U trophy information====
Mew appears as a trophy in both versions of the game.
 
'''NA''': ''Mew is a Pokémon previously thought to be extinct but rediscovered by [[Mr. Fuji|Dr. Fuji]]. This Legendary Pokémon doesn't often show itself to humans, so it is considered quite lucky to see one. In Smash Bros., Mew will appear and then use Fly to sail away, leaving behind a gift. Thanks, Mew! ''
 
'''PAL''': ''Mew was thought to be extinct until it was rediscovered by Dr. Fuji in Guyana. This Mythical Pokémon doesn't often show itself to humans, so it's considered very lucky to see one. In this game, it will float upwards and leave a present behind. If only Mew would turn up more often, eh?''

==={{g|Snap}}===
Mew appears in the seventh course, [[Rainbow Cloud]]. Although the game is not combat-oriented, the difficulty of photographing Mew effectively makes it the game's boss. Mew floats in a bubble that turns opaque when the zoom is activated, so players must throw a series of [[Pester Ball]]s or Food at it to break the bubble so Mew will come out for a clear shot. Photographing Mew gets an automatic bonus of 2,500 points, making it the highest-ranking Pokémon in the game with the highest possible score of 10,000 points with perfect positioning, size, and pose.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Though it comes after {{p|Mewtwo}} in the Pokédex, it has to have been discovered before Mewtwo, due to the fact that Mewtwo is Mew's clone.
[[File:Mew Discovery Date.png|thumb|right|Mew's discovery date.]]
* Mew was the only Pokémon of the first 151 to be left out of the original version of the [[Pokérap]].
* Mew was designed by Shigeki Morimoto, which he states at the [[Heahea City]] [[GAME FREAK]] office. This included its pixel art, cry and Pokédex entry (the one reused in {{g|FireRed}}). He also says it was right at the very end of game development.
* Mew was a little-known secret when {{game|Red and Green|s}} were first released in Japan. Even Nintendo was not initially aware that [[Shigeki Morimoto]] had programmed it into the game.<ref>http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/news/iwata/iwata_asks_-_pokmon_heartgold_version__soulsilver_version_16288_16289.html</ref>  
* Despite being a clone of Mew, {{p|Mewtwo}} appears before Mew in the [[Pokédex]].
* In the games, lost scientific reports state that Mew was found in the forests of [[Guyana]].
* Mew is the only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} out of the first 151 to be left out of the original version of the [[Kanto Pokérap|Pokérap]].
* In [[Generation III]], Mew was the only [[Kanto]] Pokémon not catchable in either {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, as well as the only legendary Kanto Pokémon catchable in {{v2|Emerald}}.
* In [[Generation I|Generations I]] and {{gen|II}}, due to technical limitations, Mew's [[Pokémon category|category name]], ''New Species'', is labeled in game as ''NEW SPECIE'' (and in early versions, labeled as ''NEWSPECIES'').
* Mew had shown up in six opening sequences, more than any other legendary.
* Mew was a little-known secret when {{game|Red and Green|s}} were first released in Japan. Even [[Nintendo]] was not initially aware that [[Shigeki Morimoto]] had programmed it into the game.<ref name=IwataAsks>[https://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/ds/pokemon/0/0/ Iwata Asks - Pokémon HeartGold Version & SoulSilver Version]</ref>
* Mew is the only genderless Pokémon able to learn {{m|Captivate}}, and the only genderless Pokémon besides {{p|Cryogonal}} to learn {{m|Attract}}; however, when used by genderless Pokémon, these moves will always fail.
** According to Shigeki Morimoto, the cartridges for Pokémon Red and Green had about 300 bytes of free space left after the debugging process was complete, and he thought of slotting Mew in as a last-minute addition, even after he was told not to tamper with the games post-debugging.<ref name=IwataAsks/> However, Pokémon Red and Green are 373 kilobytes in size and are housed in 512 kilobyte cartridges.<ref>[https://www.thegamer.com/pokemon-file-size-every-core-game/ The File Size Of Every Core Pokemon Game] - ''The Gamer''.</ref><ref>https://datacrystal.romhacking.net/wiki/Pokémon_Red_and_Blue</ref>
* Unlike most [[legendary Pokémon]], Mew needs only 1,059,860 Exp. to get to level 100, whereas most legendary Pokémon need 1,250,000. It shares this trait with both {{p|Celebi}} and {{p|Shaymin}}. The three of them also share base 100 stats.  
** In an interview with [[Game Freak]] and [[Creatures, Inc.]] in [[Nintendo Power]] issue 134, Shigeki Morimoto revealed that he created Mew two weeks before game development was finished.<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Vol. 134, July 2000, p.78-79 ([http://www.rigelatin.net/copycat/media/print/np134.php excerpt])</ref>
* In [[Super Smash Bros.]] it has a chance of 1 out of 151 to appear, in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]], its chance to appear is 1 out of 251, and in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], its chance to appear is 1 out of 493.
* In the [[core series]], Mew can only be fought as a [[wild Pokémon]] on [[Faraway Island]] in {{game|Emerald}}. However, this requires the [[Old Sea Map]], an [[event item]] only distributed in Japan and Taiwan.
[[File:Wildmew.jpg|thumb|right|A wild Mew found using the [[Mew glitch]]]]
* Mew has the most anime opening appearances of any Mythical Pokémon, with seven in Japan.
* Although Mew is considered the ancestor of all Pokémon, {{p|Arceus}} is said to be the first of all Pokémon.
* Because Mew can learn any TM:
* Mew shares the move {{m|Transform}} with {{p|Ditto}}, along with also sharing the same {{Shiny}} coloration and the same weight.
** It is the only [[Gender unknown|gender-unknown]] Pokémon species that is legitimately able to learn {{m|Captivate}}, and one of the few that can learn {{m|Attract}}. Both moves fail when used by any Pokémon with unknown gender, including Mew.
* In an interview with [[Game Freak]] and [[Creatures, Inc.]] in [[Nintendo Power]] issue 134, [[Tsunekaz Ishihara]] revealed that he created Mew two weeks before game development was finished.
** It is the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, {{m|Blast Burn}}, {{m|Hydro Cannon}}, {{m|Draco Meteor}}, {{m|Grass Pledge}}, {{m|Fire Pledge}}, {{m|Water Pledge}}, and {{m|Steel Beam}} that doesn't share a type with the move.
* In the US release of Mew as an event for {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, it was released on the ten-year anniversary of the original release of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.
* In [[Super Smash Bros.]], Mew has a chance of 1 out of 151 to appear; in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]], its chance to appear is 1 out of 251; and in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], its chance to appear is 1 out of 493. This is a reference to how many Pokémon were out during the release of each game (151 in [[Generation I]], 251 in [[Generation II]], and 493 in [[Generation IV]]).
* In all generations, Mew learns a new move every 10 levels (starting at level 10) until level 40 in [[Generation I]], level 50 in Generations {{gen|II}} and {{gen|III}}, and level 100 in Generations {{gen|IV}} and {{gen|V}}. It shares this trait with {{p|Larvesta}}.
[[File:Wildmew.png|thumb|right|A wild Mew found using the [[Mew glitch]]]]
* Mew was the most voted of all [[legendary Pokémon]] on {{n|Official Pokémon website announces Pokémon Power Bracket|Pokemon Power Bracket}}.
* The US release of Mew as an event for {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} happened on the ten-year anniversary of the original release of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.
 
* In 2012, Mew was voted the most popular Legendary/Mythical Pokémon in the {{n|Official Pokémon website announces Pokémon Power Bracket|Pokémon Power Bracket}}, which consisted of all Legendary and Mythical Pokémon from the first four [[generation]]s.
===Trademark===
* Mew started the trend of every generation until [[Generation VI]] introducing a Mythical Pokémon with a base stat total of 600 and a stat distribution of 100 all around. Others that follow this trend include {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Land Forme}} {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Victini}}.
* Mew (then spelled ミュー, not ミュウ) was the first Pokémon trademark ever registered (granted on March 31, 1994, registration number 2636685 part 12), before even Pocket Monsters (ポケットモンスター), which was granted on December 26, 1997.  
* At 981 episodes (and over two decades), Mew is the Pokémon species that has taken the longest to physically debut in the main anime series from the start of their generation out of any Pokémon thus far.
** ミュウ was registered on August 6, 1999, registration number 4302090.
* The only ways to legitimately obtain a {{Shiny}} Mew are via the Generation II {{DL|List of PCNY event Pokémon distributions in Generation II|Shiny Mew|Gotta Catch Em All Event}} in Thanksgiving 2002, the [[Old Sea Map]] on a Japanese copy of {{game|Emerald}}, or through the [https://www.leekduck.com/shiny-mew-masterwork-research/ Pokémon Go Mew Masterwork Research] quest, which was available for a limited time in Pokémon GO during the Pokémon Go Tour: Kanto event and then became available again for players who missed purchasing it the first time for a few days in early July 2023.
* Mew is also the first Pokémon trademark ever applied for; the application was submitted on May 9, 1990, application number 平2-51989; before even Pocket Monsters, which was submitted September 11, 1995.
** Only the latter two can exist in modern games, as Gen II's "Gotta Catch Em All" Shiny Mew cannot legitimately be [[transfer|transferred]] to Generation III or later.
** ミュウ was submitted on June 17, 1997, application number 平9-128909.
** Mew is the only Pokémon that can be shiny while having the Mightiest [[Mark]].
* Mew is tied with {{p|Muk}} for the shortest English name of all Pokémon.
** Mew has the shortest Korean name of all Pokémon, only consisting of one hangul character.
* Mew is the only Pokémon obtainable in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] that cannot have the [[Pokémon GO]] [[origin mark]] ([[File:GO icon VIII.png|16px|GO origin mark]]) in said games.
* Mew is the only [[Mythical Pokémon]] introduced in Generation I.
* As of [[Generation IX]], Mew is the only Generation I Pokémon that does not appear in any regional Pokédex other than [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto]] and [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto]].
* The symbol for the {{TCG|Fusion Strike}} expansion [[File:SetSymbolFusion Strike.png|30px]] resembles Mew's tail surrounded by [[Dynamax]] clouds.

{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Mew}}
Mew is similar to a vertebrate {{wp|embryo}}. It is purported by scientists to be the ancestor of all other Pokémon, a reference to the {{wp|recapitulation theory}}. It also shares some traits with {{wp|cats}}.  
Designer Shigeki Morimoto stated that Mew's design was based on Mewtwo. Its design was made simpler than Mewtwo in order to take up less space on the cartridge.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyXDpFd1CQk The Untold Origin Story of Mythical Pokémon "Mew" and "Mewtwo"! (Game Freak "Secret Base" #39)] - Game Freak Official YouTube Channel (Japanese)</ref><ref>[https://nintendoeverything.com/game-freaks-shigeki-morimoto-on-mew-why-it-was-initially-rare-design-more/ Game Freak’s Shigeki Morimoto on Mew – why it was initially rare, design, more] - ''Nintendo Everything''.</ref>
 
Mew's overall physical appearance appears to be based on domestic {{wp|cat}}s. Several of Mew's features, such as a short muzzle and large hind feet, are commonly found in cats. Its morphology is also vaguely similar to a {{wp|jerboa}}, having large hind legs and a long skinny tail. Mew's earliest design in [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red and Green]] resembled a vertebrate {{wp|embryo}}, featuring a large head and small body. Mew was soon revised and became mostly mammalian with cat-like traits, while still retaining several embryonic features such as having short fine hair and small forearms. Mew is believed by scientists to be the {{wp|last universal common ancestor}} of all other Pokémon, which, along with its resemblance to an embryo, may be a reference to the {{wp|recapitulation theory}}.


====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Mew may be derived from 妙 ''myō'' (strange/unusual), ''mew'' (the sound a kitten makes, referring to its size and cat-like appearance), or ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (myūtanto), or it may be a combination of ''mystery'' and ''new'' (considering its mysterious and "newly" discovered).
Mew may be a combination of ''{{wp|mutant}}'' or ''{{wp|mutation}}'' and ''new''. It may also involve 妙 ''myō'' (wonderful, exquisite).
 
According to Julien Bardakoff, the French localizer for [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red and Blue]], he asked if Mew's name was based on the English onomatopoeia for a cat's meow, and was explicitly told it was not.<ref>[https://www.liberation.fr/apps/2016/06/pokemon/ Libération.fr – Pokémon, traduisez-les tous]</ref>

Mew (Japanese: ミュウ Mew) is a Psychic-type Mythical Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Mew is notable for its unique ability to learn every Technical Machine, Technical Record, Hidden Machine, and Move Tutor move (except those exclusive to a particular Pokémon or group of Pokémon, such as Volt Tackle and Secret Sword).

It is associated with Mewtwo, and thus they are collectively referred to as the Mew duo by fans.

Mew was first officially revealed in the May 1996 issue of CoroCoro,[1] less than two months after Pokémon Red and Green were released in Japan.

Biology

Mew is a pink, bipedal Pokémon with mammalian features. It has a rounded, wide snout; triangular ears; and large, blue eyes. It has short arms with three-fingered paws and large hind paws with oval markings on the soles. Its tail is long and thin with an ovoid tip. Its fur is so fine and thin, it can only be seen under a microscope.

Mew has shown a playful, childish personality, showing signs of high intelligence, curiosity, shyness, playfulness, and even selflessness. It is said to have the DNA of every single Pokémon contained within its body. This causes many scientists to theorize that Mew is the ancestor of all Pokémon. It is an incredibly adaptable species, capable of levitation and teleportation. It can use almost all known moves, regardless of their types. It has also shown the rare power to transform into all known Pokémon. It is capable of making itself invisible at will, so it entirely avoids notice even if it approaches people. As seen on several occasions, it has the ability to create an orb of energy around itself for protection, which can come in many colors, such as green, yellow, and pink.

According to journals found in Kanto's Pokémon Mansion, Mr. Fuji is the one who discovered Mew deep in the jungle and coined its name. With other scientists, he managed to gather some of Mew's DNA and used it in his mansion to create a modified clone of it, aiming it to be the most powerful Pokémon of all, which resulted in the birth of the Legendary Pokémon Mewtwo. Since Mew can make itself invisible, very few people have seen it, leading some scientists to declare it extinct and most to assume it to be nothing, but a mirage. However, sightings of it are still being reported to this day, confirming its existence. Even though it's rarely seen, it will willingly show itself to a person who is pure of heart and has a strong desire to see it.

According to the anime's radio drama, The Birth of Mewtwo, Mew was discovered by Jessie's mother, Miyamoto, who registered its cry in a forest 20 years before the events of the series. It was worshiped for its protection by ancient people who created a song in its honor and believed it appeared once a year with the rising sun. It wasn't rediscovered until 18 years after Miyamoto met Mew by sunrise on the peak of a high mountain. As depicted in the episode In the Palms of our Hands! it is capable of splitting itself up and transforming into more than one Pokémon at the same time. It was also shown to possess a strong rivalry with its clone, Mewtwo in Mewtwo Strikes Back.

Mew is the only known Pokémon capable of using the Z-Move Genesis Supernova.

Pokédex entries

The Pokédex entry from Japanese Pokémon Blue and LeafGreen had some localization changes:

  • 「いまでも まぼろしの ポケモンと いわれる。そのすがたを みたものは ぜんこくでも ほとんど いない。」 (It is still called a Mythical Pokémon. Its shape was seen by almost no one in the entire country.)BLG
    This entry uses the Japanese term for Mythical Pokémon (literally: Illusory Pokémon), but it predates the definitive split between Legendary and Mythical in English media. The localization calls Mew a "mirage" instead.
    In the localization, Mew is said to be a mirage by "many experts". However, the Japanese text does not mention any experts.
    In Japanese, it is said that almost no one has seen Mew in the entire country (全国(ぜんこく)). In English, this was changed to "worldwide".

In the German version of Pokémon Stadium, Mew's entry does not mention South America; instead, it says that Mew has been seen in "Niemandsland" (No Man's Land).

Other appearances

Mew in Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Mew trophy in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS

Super Smash Bros. series

In Super Smash Bros., Mew will sometimes appear out of a Poké Ball. When summoned, it will use Fly to leave the arena. In single-player, the summoner is awarded the "Mew Catcher" bonus, worth 15,000 points.

After unlocking every character in Super Smash Bros. Melee, there is a 1 in 251 chance of Mew appearing from a Poké Ball. The thrower of the Poké Ball receives the same "Mew Catcher" bonus.

Mew returns again as a rare Pokémon in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the chance of it appearing is 1 in 493 this time. Like the other "secret" Pokémon, it drops rare items instead of just flying away. In Mew's case, the items are CDs. However, once all the pick-up CDs are obtained, it will drop Stickers instead.

Mew returns in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U and comes out of a Poké Ball (rarely) and/or Master Ball (rare, but less rare than a Poké Ball).

Mew returns yet again in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, once again as a rare Poké Ball summon, but also as a Spirit.

Throughout the series, Mew, much like Mewtwo, is roughly akin to its portrayal in the first movie, especially having Kōichi Yamadera reprise his role.

Melee trophy information

Mew is an extremely rare Pokémon that has been seen by only a few people. Information on every Pokémon in the world is contained in Mew's cell structure, so it has the ability to use any and all TMs and HMs. Some Pokémon scholars believe Mew to be the ancestor of all existing Pokémon, but the idea is debatable.

Brawl trophy information

"A New Species Pokémon. An extremely rare Pokémon that contains the DNA of all other Pokémon, it is thought by many scholars to be a Pokémon ancestor, considering the wide range of moves it can use. On top of being able to make itself invisible, Mew can also transform into any opponent Pokémon and use characteristics and moves in exactly the same way."

3DS/Wii U trophy information

Mew appears as a trophy in both versions of the game.

NA: Mew is a Pokémon previously thought to be extinct but rediscovered by Dr. Fuji. This Legendary Pokémon doesn't often show itself to humans, so it is considered quite lucky to see one. In Smash Bros., Mew will appear and then use Fly to sail away, leaving behind a gift. Thanks, Mew!

PAL: Mew was thought to be extinct until it was rediscovered by Dr. Fuji in Guyana. This Mythical Pokémon doesn't often show itself to humans, so it's considered very lucky to see one. In this game, it will float upwards and leave a present behind. If only Mew would turn up more often, eh?

Mew in Pokémon Snap
Mew in Pokémon UNITE

Pokémon Snap

Mew appears in the seventh course, Rainbow Cloud. Although the game is not combat-oriented, the difficulty of photographing Mew effectively makes it the game's boss. Mew floats in a bubble that turns opaque when the zoom is activated, so players must throw a series of Pester Balls or Food at it to break the bubble so Mew will come out for a clear shot. Photographing Mew gets an automatic bonus of 2,500 points, making it the highest-ranking Pokémon in the game with the highest possible score of 10,000 points with perfect positioning, size, and pose.

Pokémon UNITE

Main article: Mew (UNITE)

Mew is playable through obtaining a Unite License. It is a ranged attacker.

Celestial

Mew appeared in the music video for Celestial by Ed Sheeran.

Trivia

Mew's discovery date.
A wild Mew found using the Mew glitch
  • The US release of Mew as an event for Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver happened on the ten-year anniversary of the original release of Gold and Silver.
  • In 2012, Mew was voted the most popular Legendary/Mythical Pokémon in the Pokémon Power Bracket, which consisted of all Legendary and Mythical Pokémon from the first four generations.
  • Mew started the trend of every generation until Generation VI introducing a Mythical Pokémon with a base stat total of 600 and a stat distribution of 100 all around. Others that follow this trend include Celebi, Jirachi, Manaphy, Land Forme Shaymin, and Victini.
  • At 981 episodes (and over two decades), Mew is the Pokémon species that has taken the longest to physically debut in the main anime series from the start of their generation out of any Pokémon thus far.
  • The only ways to legitimately obtain a Shiny Mew are via the Generation II Gotta Catch Em All Event in Thanksgiving 2002, the Old Sea Map on a Japanese copy of Pokémon Emerald, or through the Pokémon Go Mew Masterwork Research quest, which was available for a limited time in Pokémon GO during the Pokémon Go Tour: Kanto event and then became available again for players who missed purchasing it the first time for a few days in early July 2023.
    • Only the latter two can exist in modern games, as Gen II's "Gotta Catch Em All" Shiny Mew cannot legitimately be transferred to Generation III or later.
    • Mew is the only Pokémon that can be shiny while having the Mightiest Mark.
  • Mew is tied with Muk for the shortest English name of all Pokémon.
    • Mew has the shortest Korean name of all Pokémon, only consisting of one hangul character.
  • Mew is the only Pokémon obtainable in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! that cannot have the Pokémon GO origin mark (GO origin mark) in said games.
  • Mew is the only Mythical Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
  • As of Generation IX, Mew is the only Generation I Pokémon that does not appear in any regional Pokédex other than Kanto and Johto.
  • The symbol for the Fusion Strike expansion SetSymbolFusion Strike.png resembles Mew's tail surrounded by Dynamax clouds.

Origin

Bulbanews
Bulbanews has an article related to this subject:

Designer Shigeki Morimoto stated that Mew's design was based on Mewtwo. Its design was made simpler than Mewtwo in order to take up less space on the cartridge.[7][8]

Mew's overall physical appearance appears to be based on domestic cats. Several of Mew's features, such as a short muzzle and large hind feet, are commonly found in cats. Its morphology is also vaguely similar to a jerboa, having large hind legs and a long skinny tail. Mew's earliest design in Pokémon Red and Green resembled a vertebrate embryo, featuring a large head and small body. Mew was soon revised and became mostly mammalian with cat-like traits, while still retaining several embryonic features such as having short fine hair and small forearms. Mew is believed by scientists to be the last universal common ancestor of all other Pokémon, which, along with its resemblance to an embryo, may be a reference to the recapitulation theory.

Name origin

Mew may be a combination of mutant or mutation and new. It may also involve 妙 myō (wonderful, exquisite).

According to Julien Bardakoff, the French localizer for Pokémon Red and Blue, he asked if Mew's name was based on the English onomatopoeia for a cat's meow, and was explicitly told it was not.[9]
