Mew is similar to a vertebrate {{wp|embryo}}. It shares many traits with {{wp|cats}}. Its morphology is also vaguely similar to a {{wp|jerboa}}, having large hind legs and a long skinny tail. It is believed by scientists to be the ancestor ({{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}}.
