=== Later discussion ===
The Mew Glitch is a perfectly legitimate way to capture Mew, considering the fact that [[Shigeki Morimoto]] programmed it in on purpose.
[[User:MasterZ|MasterZ]] ([[User talk:MasterZ|talk]])
:He didn't program in the Mew glitch; he programmed in the Pokemon Mew itself. The glitch is not intrinsically related to Mew itself; it was only named as such because it happened to become famous for being a non-hacking way to obtain Mew. It doesn't belong in the Game Locations section because literally every Generation I Pokemon (and, to my knowledge, every Gen I glitch Pokemon as well) can be obtained via the glitch.

:Yes, Mew was a "last minute" addition to {{2v2|Red|Green}}. It may have been an early design, but was actually programmed into the game very lately. Unlike {{2v2|Red|Blue}}, there isn't much free space available in Red and Green, because it's only a 512KB cartridge. According to an [http://web.archive.org/web/20101125182143/http://nintendodsi.com/iwata-asks-chapter.jsp?interviewId=6&volumeId=1&chapterId=1 Iwata Asks interview] around the development of {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, there were some debugging features remaining in the game, so Morimoto removed those features to create 300 bytes of free space, and then placed some data for Mew in there. This may be supported by the [[Pokémon base stats data structure in Generation I#Storage|Pokémon base stats structure]], in which Mew's base stats are stored at offset 0x00425B. The base stats data normally follow on by Pokédex entry at 0x0383DE starting from {{p|Bulbasaur}}, yet Mew's base stats data do not follow on from {{p|Mewtwo}}. They do, however in {{game|Yellow}}. I suspect it's probably the same case in Red and Green, though I haven't checked. I personally believe Mew replaced one of the Missingno. occupying index number 21 (0x15). --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 13:26, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

::Chances are Mew was designed well before the time it was put in the game. We already know that Missingno. used to be real Pokémon; Mew was likely one of the deleted 50, then undeleted. Plus, the fact that Mewtwo existed certainly implies it did too. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 13:43, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

Don't forget that Mew is mentioned in the diaries in Pokemon Mansion.  I highly doubt those diaries were programmed into the game at the last minute. Also, Mew had to be the basis of the name and design of Mewtwo, which I also doubt was programmed into the game at the last minute. I suspect the concept for Mew was created already, but not created ''in the game'' until the last minute. [[User:Ritabuuk|Ritabuuk]] ([[User talk:Ritabuuk|talk]]) 00:36, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
Also, this quote is incorrectly attributed.  The exact quote from the article, in answer to "What is your favorite Pokemon?" is:  "SM: Mew.  I created Mew two weeks before we were finished developing the original Pokemon game.  I owe a lot to Mew." SM being Shigeki Morimoto.  I will correct this. [[User:Ritabuuk|Ritabuuk]] ([[User talk:Ritabuuk|talk]]) 00:36, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

== Trivia 2 ==
"Though it comes after Mewtwo in the Pokédex, it has to have been discovered before Mewtwo, due to the fact that Mewtwo is Mew's clone."
it doesn't have to have been discovered SCIENTFICIALLY (what the pokedex is based off, research by proffessors), a lot of the experts were sceptical of its existence thinking it was a mirage.
mewtwo was formed out of a piece of Mew's DNA, some form of feather thing, which means it would of been studied before Mew - Camero56
:It was an eyelash. And If they were to study Mewtwo, they would have had to have studied Mew's DNA first to be able to clone it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 13:17, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
== Diet? ==
First, the article says that Mew looks like an animal called a jerboa (which it does), then it says that no terrestrial creature resembles it.I'm confused... NavyTheGlitch 01:06, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
== You can trade Mew in Pokémon Diamond ==
So it says that you can only get a Mew from Pokémon Ranch in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, this is not entirely true. I got my Mew from Pokémon Ranch, then I cloned it using the Pokémon Ranch clone trick. Then I went and put one of the Mews up for trade on the GTS and was able to trade it for another Pokémon of my choosing. It seems though that I can only trade a Mew to a trainer in Japan. I'm testing now to see if someone can send me a Mew from Japan. I'll fill you all in when it either does or doesn't happen. But, you definitely can trade a Mew to someone in Japan. That I know for sure. --[[User:Bokeatong|Bokeatong]] ([[User talk:Bokeatong|talk]]) 23:33, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
You can trade a Mew in any country it seems. Both GTS and Union Hall. --[[User:Bokeatong|Bokeatong]] ([[User talk:Bokeatong|talk]]) 07:02, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
== Unneeded info ==
As you can see, on where you can find Mew in Generation I, crazox99 has added some unneeded info as he was told not to do so and since I can't remove it, I would like to ask if someone could remove the unneeded info that would make Bulbapedia look bad to the people look at the info on the articles.

== Move tutors ==
"mew can learn ''every'' move tutor move except for these 9." to me that just seems a bit silly [[User:0danmaster0|0danmaster0]] ([[User talk:0danmaster0|talk]]) 19:02, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
:Those nine aren't quite Move Tutor moves in the same way that all the others are. Those nine are exclusive to a very restricted subset of Pokemon, almost like [[signature move]]s (which some of them actually are, though most are not).  Saying "all except this special type of Tutor" is briefer and just as informative as the long list you can see by hitting "show". Although I agree, it'd sound nicer if we categorized those nine moves as a distinct subset of Move Tutor moves and just said "Mew can learn every Move Tutor move except {{red link|restricted Move Tutor moves}}" (or whatever we decide to call that subset).

== Mew Back Sprite DPPT ==
Mew's back sprite in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum features Mew with yellow/cream circles on the soles of its feet. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, these are purple. Should the alternate back sprite not be provided below at the bottom of the sprite section, as has been done with many other Pokémon with back sprite changes between games in the same generation?--[[User:ShinyPatch|ShinyPatch]] ([[User talk:ShinyPatch|talk]]) 00:22, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
== Google Pokédex ==
Is Mew the only Legendary Pokémon that is part of the April Fools' Day 2014's Google Pokédex, or it's not notable? --[[User:Cinday123|<span style="color:pink">Cinday123</span>]] <small>''([[User talk:Cinday123|<span style="color:lightblue">Talk</span>]])''</small> 03:09, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
== Black2 White2 Locations? ==
Is there a reason that Black and White have two entries each in the in-game locations sections, yet Black2 and White2 are not entered? I do not have the black 2 or white 2 games, so I do not know where/if they can be found in those games. Could someone please enter those? Unless there is some reason for this that I am missing...
