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

Mew is the last Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]].

===In the main series===

====Major appearances====

=====[[Mew (M01)]]=====

Mew returns again as a rare Pokémon in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|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 throughout the ''Smash'' series, much like Mewtwo, is roughly akin to the first movie portrayal, especially having Kōichi Yamadera reprise his role.

* Despite being a clone of Mew, {{p|Mewtwo}} appears before Mew in the Pokédex.

* Mew was the only Pokémon of the first 151 to be left out of the original version of the [[Kanto Pokérap|Pokérap]].

* 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>

** 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.

* In [[Generation III]], Mew is the only Generation I Pokémon that cannot be encountered in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, as well as the only Generation I Legendary or Mythical Pokémon that can be encountered in {{v2|Emerald}}.

* Mew is tied with Mewtwo for the most anime opening appearances of any Legendary or Mythical Pokémon, with seven in Japan.

* 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. 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]]).

* Mew shares the move {{m|Transform}} with {{p|Ditto}}, along with also sharing the same {{Shiny}} coloration and the same weight. In addition, in {{game|Yellow}}, Ditto can be encountered in the Pokémon Mansion on Cinnabar Island, where [[Pokémon Mansion journals|diary entries]] on Mew can be found.

* The US release of Mew as an event for {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} happened on the ten-year anniversary of the original release of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.

* Mew started the trend of every generation (through [[Generation V]]) 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}}.

* The only way to legitimately obtain a {{Shiny}} Mew is via the [[Old Sea Map]] on a Japanese copy of {{game|Emerald}}.
