'''Mew is thought to be one of the most powerful Pokémon in the world.

Mew (ミュウ Mew) is a -type Legendary Pokémon and the last Pokémon in the Kanto Pokédex. It has the ability to learn every TM or HM.

It cannot evolve into or from any pokemon, however it has been Cloned using it's DNA to create Mewtwo. It was the last Pokemon in the Pokedex until Generation II was released.

Appearance
.

Mew's appearance is as a pink cat-like Pokémon with large feet, big blue eyes, small pointed ears and a long skinny tail. It is covered with a layer of fine pink hair, only visible with the aid of a microscope. It has short arms with three fingers on each paw.

Special Abilities
Mew has the ability Synchronize. This ability allows it to pass on any status problem, except sleep and frozen, to its opponent. This ability also raises the encounter rate of Pokémon with its same nature.

Additionally, it is said that Mew's DNA possesses the genetic composition of all existing Pokémon species, thus allowing it to use all known Pokémon techniques. also, as shown in Lucario and the mystery of mew, it can change into any pokemon. It changed into Meowth, Ho-Oh, Pidgeot, Pikachu, Aipom, Treecko, Tailow, Mime Jr., and Pichu.

Mew has also shown its ability to levitate, create force fields, and change its form into any existing species of Pokémon. It is a very versatile and powerful Pokémon.

Anime


Mew has been featured in several Pokémon movies, having a large role in most of them. Despite this, Mew has been shown several times though in the TV series anime.

Mew first appeared in the movie Mewtwo Strikes Back or Pokémon the First Movie, and fought with Mewtwo. It was again featured in the TV Movie special Mewtwo Returns, during a flashback sequence of Mewtwo's.

Mew's second movie appearance was in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, where a different Mew from the first movie takes Meowth and Ash's Pikachu to the Tree of Beginning.

Mew's first and only TV series appearance, so far, is in the episode A Lean, Mean, Team Rocket Machine, where it appears in one of Meowth's boss fantasies, along with Celebi, Phione, Manaphy, and Jirachi.

Games
Mew first appeared in the Generation I games as a legendary Pokémon, largely unattainable without the aid of a cheat device or glitch.

In the main series games, Mew can learn most moves through a Technical or Hidden Machine, or is taught by the Move Tutor, and also a few of its own. Other than Ditto, and Smeargle, it is the only Pokémon that can learn Transform.

Mew is mentioned in journal entries found in the Pokémon Mansion on Cinnabar Island stating that it was discovered deep in the jungles of Guyana, South America on July 5 (the year was not specified) and named on July 10, and that it "gave birth" to Mewtwo on February 6.

Unlike normal Pokémon, Mew cannot be obtained within the game except by various Nintendo events and a glitch.

In Pokémon Emerald, it may be found on Faraway Island, but only with the promotion only item, the Old Sea Map. Mew was previously only in the Red, Blue, and Yellow versions and therefore could not be transferred to third-generation games. Both third-generation games and My Pokémon Ranch can transfer Mew to Diamond and Pearl.

My Pokémon Ranch: How to get Mew
My Pokémon Ranch is a game that can be bought on the Wii console for a certain amount of points. Once the game is purchased you need to transfer a certain amount of Pokémon to the game from your Pokémon Diamond or Pearl version. Once you have transferred the necessary Pokémon, the girl in the game will trade you her Mew for one of your Pokémon eggs.

Super Smash Bros
Mew has been a featured Pokémon in every one of the Super Smash Brothers games.

In original Super Smash Bros., a Mew will fly up without affecting the battlefield. In Super Smash Bros. Melee there is a 1 in 493 chance that a Poké Ball item contains Mew, and if this is the first time you see her, you will get an "achievement" after your battle. While it does not attack, the player receives 10,000 points after the battle is over. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, it may even leave the player with a CD, a rare item that unlocks additional music in the game. Also, like in SSBM, if it's your first time seeing her, you will get a "Notice" record from encountering her. This can be viewed later, along with the date and time you received it.

Origins
Mew's name likely has to do with the onomatopoeia for a kitten's cry, referring to its cat-like appearance. It may also be based on a cat.

Trivia

 * Mew was the very first Pokémon trademark ever to be applied for and registered.
 * Mew, in the original games, was so little known that even Nintendo was not initially aware that it was programmed into the game.
 * Mew is also known as a Mirage and some times called by people Mirage since there not a lot of Mews in the Pokemon World and people think when they see a Mew its just a mirage.

 * In the first Pokémon movie, Mew appears underwater, in a bubble, and is a blue color, but when it raises out of the water, it gets it's pink hue. This is the first time Mew is shown with a different color, and it later is applied as the color for it's "special colored-form".
 * There was a widly popular rumor that you could find a mew under the truck near the SS Anne in pokemon red and blue, but this was proven untrue.
