'''Forrest''' (Japanese: '''ジロウ''' ''Jirō'') is a {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} specialist. He is the brother of {{an|Brock}} and {{Brocksib|eight other children}} and is the son of {{ka|Flint}} and [[Lola]]. He is the second oldest child in the family.

He is currently the [[Gym Leader]] of the [[Pewter City]] [[Gym]], and gives out the {{Badge|Boulder}} to challengers who defeat him.

==History==
Years ago, Forrest's father, Flint, left home to become a great {{pkmn|Trainer}} and never returned. His mother, Lola, soon followed. This left his eldest brother, Brock, in charge of the family. Brock took care of them for many years, running the Pewter City Gym at the same time. Although in truth, Brock wanted to travel and become a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder|breeder}}. Eventually, Flint returned, allowing Brock to leave on a journey with a Trainer he had recently met, {{Ash}}.

Flint ran the Gym in Brock's absence, but was ousted from the position when Lola returned home. Lola usurped the title of Gym Leader from Flint and turned the Gym into a {{type|Water}} Pokémon Gym, something that angered Forrest, who was dedicated to Rock-types.

Brock returned home and was shocked to find what happened. Forrest and Brock commiserated with each other over the sad state the Gym had fallen into. Brock defeated Lola in a {{pkmn|battle}}, and convinced her to restore the Gym to its former state. In the process, he gave Forrest most of his Pokémon and passed the title of Gym Leader onto him.

When Brock returned from [[Sinnoh]], Forrest was with a [[Nurse Joy]] from the [[PIA]], but she demanded to see the true Gym Leader, Brock. So Brock battled the Nurse Joy and Forrest acted as referee. Brock lost and Nurse Joy was forced to close the Gym, but she gave them one more chance.

If Forrest battled her and he won, she would not shut down the Gym. He was surprised when Nurse Joy called upon her {{p|Latias}}, a [[legendary Pokémon]]. Forrest put up a tough fight with his {{p|Rhyperior}}, but both ended up losing to Latias. Still, Nurse Joy was impressed by his skill and decided to name him as the official Gym Leader of Pewter City.

In the English dub only, Forrest seems to have the same interest in girls as his older brother Brock does, although this interest in girls has not really been explicitly stated in the Japanese-language version.

|desc={{p|Rhyperior}} is currently the only known Pokémon of Forrest that he did not borrow from {{an|Brock}}. He used it in a battle against [[Nurse Joy]]'s {{p|Latias}} that, if he had lost, would have caused the Pewter Gym to be shut down. Rhyperior did a lot of damage to Latias with its {{m|Megahorn}}, but Latias used {{m|Recover}} and then fired an {{m|Ice Beam}} at Rhyperior. Rhyperior continued to use Megahorn, but Latias used multiple {{m|Steel Wing}} attacks and an Ice Beam until Rhyperior finally fainted.

Rhyperior became {{status|frozen}} by Latias's Ice Beam but Brock was able to help it recover. Nurse Joy was impressed by Forrest's skill, and as a result the Pewter Gym was not closed.

Rhyperior's known moves are {{m|Megahorn}}, {{m|Rock Wrecker}}, {{m|Horn Drill}} and {{m|Dig}}.}}

I am evetype and it is so nice to meet you!

I hope to help anyone and everyone I can, but I am a rookie to this sort've stuff, sooooooo....

Bug (type)

2012-06-07T05:08:31Z

Evetype: /* Trivia */

{{types}}
The '''Bug type''' (Japanese: '''むしタイプ''' ''Bug type'') is one of the seventeen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers that specialize in Bug-type Pokémon are [[Bugsy]] of [[Azalea Town]], {{OBP|Aaron|Elite Four}} of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], and [[Burgh]] of [[Castelia City]]. Prior to Generation IV, where moves are designated [[Physical move|physical]] or [[Special move|special]] based on the move itself rather than its type, all Bug-type moves were physical.

==Statistical averages==

==Characteristics==
Bug {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are usually amongst the first Pokémon types a Trainer can find in the wild. They generally [[evolution|evolve]] at very early levels compared to most other Pokémon. The type varies from strong to weak. Depending on the Bug Pokémon, they can prove to be a nuisance with stat altering moves or hit hard with attacks such as {{m|Megahorn}}, {{m|X-Scissor}}, {{m|Signal Beam}} and {{m|Bug Buzz}}. As of Generation V there is only {{p|Genesect|one}} legendary Bug-type Pokémon. (Excluding {{p|Arceus}} holding the {{DL|Plate|Insect Plate}}.)

===Offense===
Offensively, they are somewhat flawed. They are effective against {{t|Psychic}} and {{type|Dark}}s, which are two types common in most teams; but their strength against the very common {{type|Grass}} is reduced by the common Grass/Poison typing.
In the [[Generation I]] games, there were only {{m|Leech Life|three}} {{m|Twineedle|Bug-type}} {{m|Pin Missile|moves}}; none of which were very powerful. Since then, the range (and average base power) of Bug-type moves has increased. However, since six types resist Bug-type attacks (making it the second-most ineffective type, after Grass), Bug-type attacks still don't deal a lot of damage to many types. The fact that they are resisted by Poison—a popular defensive type—causes further problems (though many Poison types also have a subtype that is weak to Bug—commonly Grass—which helps alleviate this issue). Furthermore, their advantage over Psychic-types is compromised by the relatively common typing of Bug/Poison types; Psychic-types with Bug-resistant types; and the high speed, special attack and wide movepools that many Psychic-types have.
Despite these offensive flaws, the Bug-type pairs effectively with {{t|Water}} and {{t|Ice}}.

===Defense===
Defensively, Bug-types are still flawed, because of their low {{stat|Defense}} and the fact that there are many that are part {{t|Flying}}, multiplying their weakness to {{t|Rock}}. In this way their resistance to {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Fighting}}, the two most effective types (in terms of number of type advantages), are of little use seeing as many Pokémon of both types can learn Rock moves.
Dual-type Bug/Flying and Bug/{{t|Poison}} Pokémon have an outstanding double resistance to {{t|Fighting}}, which can make up for their low {{stat|Defense}}. They also have a double resistance to common {{t|Grass}} moves, meaning they would take very little damage from powerful moves such as {{m|Giga Drain}}, {{m|Energy Ball}}, or {{m|Petal Dance}}.
The Bug/Steel Pokémon prove particularly effective as they only have {{t|Fire|one}} weakness and ten resistances.

===Contest Properties===

When used in [[Contest]]s, Bug-type moves do not favor one [[Contest category]].

==Pokémon==
As of Generation V, there are {{tt|63|65 if all three Wormadam forms are counted}} Bug-type Pokémon or {{tt|9.71 %|10.01 % if all three Wormadam forms are counted}} of all Pokémon, making it the sixth most common type.

==Trivia==
* Even though {{t|Flying}} is a common secondary type among Bug-type Pokémon, the only Bug-type Pokémon that can learn the move {{m|Fly}}, [[Volcarona]] and [[Genesect]], are not Flying types.
* Until Platinum, several Bug-type Pokémon, {{p|Shuckle}}, {{p|Kricketot}}, {{p|Burmy}}, {{p|Wormadam}}, and {{p|Combee}}, were unable to learn any Bug-type moves. Each of them is now able to learn {{m|Bug Bite}} by level, and Wormadam can learn {{m|Signal Beam}} by [[move tutor]].
* Almost all Bug-type Pokémon evolve very early, perhaps due to their low stats. In the games, one reason for this could be to give the player the opportunity of having a strong, evolved, Pokémon in the beginning of their journey in order to earn the first Gym [[Badge]]s more easily. Despite this, all but one of the very first Gyms are strong against Bug-types, as they specialize in {{t|Rock}} and {{type|Flying}}s, and even the one that isn't, the [[Striaton City]] Gym in [[Unova]], has a chance to specialize in {{t|Fire}} types.
* {{p|Larvesta}} evolves at level 59, the highest among two-stage evolutionary lines and second-highest overall, only surpassed by {{p|Zweilous}}, which evolves at level 64.
* Until Generation IV, the only Bug moves with a power above 25 were Megahorn, Signal Beam, and Silver Wind, which made them extremely hard to use offensively.
* As of Generation II, the Bug-type (along with the {{t|Fighting}} type) are one of only two pairs of different types to share the same interaction against each other (Bug resists Fighting and vice versa). The other pair is {{t|Normal}} and {{t|Ghost}} (Normal is immune to Ghost and vice versa).
** In Generation I, the Bug-type and the {{t|Poison}} type also shared the same interaction: they were super-effective against each other. As of Generation II, Poison-type Pokémon now resist Bug-type moves, and Poison-type moves are neutral on Bug-types.
*** The {{t|Poison}} type's now neutral match-up against the Bug type could reflect the real life principle behind insects being able to adapt to poison.
* The Flying type is one of the two types most commonly paired with the Bug type (along with Poison). However there are a number of Bug-types, despite being able to fly, that are not Flying types, nor have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}. These include {{p|Beedrill}}, {{p|Venomoth}}, {{p|Heracross}}, {{p|Dustox}}, {{p|Volbeat}}, {{p|Illumise}} and {{p|Volcarona}}.
* With the exception of {{p|Whirlipede}}, all mid-evolution Bug Pokémon are based on cocoons.
* {{m|String Shot}} is the only Bug-type status move that can miss.
* Generation V introduced the most Bug-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 18 and Generation IV introduced the least Bug-type Pokémon, with {{tt|nine|counting only one of Wormadam's form}}.
** Additionally, Generation V is the only Generation to introduce a Bug-type legendary Pokémon: {{p|Genesect}}.
** Generation V is the only Generation not to introduce a dual Bug/{{t|Flying}} Pokémon.
* All Gym Leaders and Elite Four members that specialize in Bug-type Pokémon are male.
** This could be a reference to the stereotype that girls are afraid of bugs, a stereotype that {{an|Misty}} lives up to in the anime when she first encounters Ash's {{AP|Caterpie}}.
* Statistically, Bug-type Pokémon are the weakest, as most fully evolved Bug-type Pokémon have stats that aren't even close to 400. However, Generation IV and V introduced several Bug-type Pokémon with base stat totals over 500, including one at 600 (Genesect).
* The Bug type was the most common 4x weakness in [[Generation I]], with 11 Pokémon doubly weak to it, mainly due to {{t|Poison}} type having a weakness to it at the time.
* Generation IV introduced the most Bug-type moves of any Generation, with seven and Generation II and III introduced the least Bug-type moves, with four.

Evetype: /* Trivia */

{{types}}
The '''Bug type''' (Japanese: '''むしタイプ''' ''Bug type'') is one of the seventeen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers that specialize in Bug-type Pokémon are [[Bugsy]] of [[Azalea Town]], {{OBP|Aaron|Elite Four}} of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], and [[Burgh]] of [[Castelia City]]. Prior to Generation IV, where moves are designated [[Physical move|physical]] or [[Special move|special]] based on the move itself rather than its type, all Bug-type moves were physical.

==Characteristics==
Bug {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are usually amongst the first Pokémon types a Trainer can find in the wild. They generally [[evolution|evolve]] at very early levels compared to most other Pokémon. The type varies from strong to weak. Depending on the Bug Pokémon, they can prove to be a nuisance with stat altering moves or hit hard with attacks such as {{m|Megahorn}}, {{m|X-Scissor}}, {{m|Signal Beam}} and {{m|Bug Buzz}}. As of Generation V there is only {{p|Genesect|one}} legendary Bug-type Pokémon. (Excluding {{p|Arceus}} holding the {{DL|Plate|Insect Plate}}.)

===Offense===
Offensively, they are somewhat flawed. They are effective against {{t|Psychic}} and {{type|Dark}}s, which are two types common in most teams; but their strength against the very common {{type|Grass}} is reduced by the common Grass/Poison typing.
In the [[Generation I]] games, there were only {{m|Leech Life|three}} {{m|Twineedle|Bug-type}} {{m|Pin Missile|moves}}; none of which were very powerful. Since then, the range (and average base power) of Bug-type moves has increased. However, since six types resist Bug-type attacks (making it the second-most ineffective type, after Grass), Bug-type attacks still don't deal a lot of damage to many types. The fact that they are resisted by Poison—a popular defensive type—causes further problems (though many Poison types also have a subtype that is weak to Bug—commonly Grass—which helps alleviate this issue). Furthermore, their advantage over Psychic-types is compromised by the relatively common typing of Bug/Poison types; Psychic-types with Bug-resistant types; and the high speed, special attack and wide movepools that many Psychic-types have.
Despite these offensive flaws, the Bug-type pairs effectively with {{t|Water}} and {{t|Ice}}.

===Defense===
Defensively, Bug-types are still flawed, because of their low {{stat|Defense}} and the fact that there are many that are part {{t|Flying}}, multiplying their weakness to {{t|Rock}}. In this way their resistance to {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Fighting}}, the two most effective types (in terms of number of type advantages), are of little use seeing as many Pokémon of both types can learn Rock moves.
Dual-type Bug/Flying and Bug/{{t|Poison}} Pokémon have an outstanding double resistance to {{t|Fighting}}, which can make up for their low {{stat|Defense}}. They also have a double resistance to common {{t|Grass}} moves, meaning they would take very little damage from powerful moves such as {{m|Giga Drain}}, {{m|Energy Ball}}, or {{m|Petal Dance}}.
The Bug/Steel Pokémon prove particularly effective as they only have {{t|Fire|one}} weakness and ten resistances.

===Contest Properties===

When used in [[Contest]]s, Bug-type moves do not favor one [[Contest category]].

==Pokémon==
As of Generation V, there are {{tt|63|65 if all three Wormadam forms are counted}} Bug-type Pokémon or {{tt|9.71 %|10.01 % if all three Wormadam forms are counted}} of all Pokémon, making it the sixth most common type.

==Trivia==
* Even though {{t|Flying}} is a common secondary type among Bug-type Pokémon, the only Bug-type Pokémon that can learn the move {{m|Fly}}, [[Volcarona]] and [[Genesect]], are not Flying types.
* Until Platinum, several Bug-type Pokémon, {{p|Shuckle}}, {{p|Kricketot}}, {{p|Burmy}}, {{p|Wormadam}}, and {{p|Combee}}, were unable to learn any Bug-type moves. Each of them is now able to learn {{m|Bug Bite}} by level, and Wormadam can learn {{m|Signal Beam}} by [[move tutor]].
* Almost all Bug-type Pokémon evolve very early, perhaps due to their low stats. In the games, one reason for this could be to give the player the opportunity of having a strong, evolved, Pokémon in the beginning of their journey in order to earn the first Gym [[Badge]]s more easily. Despite this, all but one of the very first Gyms are strong against Bug types, as they specialize in {{t|Rock}} and {{type|Flying}}s, and even the one that isn't, the [[Striaton City]] Gym in [[Unova]], has a chance to specialize in {{t|Fire}} types.
* {{p|Larvesta}} evolves at level 59, the highest among two-stage evolutionary lines and second-highest overall, only surpassed by {{p|Zweilous}}, which evolves at level 64.
* Until Generation IV, the only Bug moves with a power above 25 were Megahorn, Signal Beam, and Silver Wind, which made them extremely hard to use offensively.
* As of Generation II, the Bug-type (along with the {{t|Fighting}} type) are one of only two pairs of different types to share the same interaction against each other (Bug resists Fighting and vice versa). The other pair is {{t|Normal}} and {{t|Ghost}} (Normal is immune to Ghost and vice versa).
** In Generation I, the Bug type and the {{t|Poison}} type also shared the same interaction: they were super-effective against each other. As of Generation II, Poison-type Pokémon now resist Bug-type moves, and Poison-type moves are neutral on Bug types.
*** The {{t|Poison}} type's now neutral match-up against the Bug type could reflect the real life principle behind insects being able to adapt to poison.
* The Flying type is one of the two types most commonly paired with the Bug type (along with Poison). However there are a number of Bug-types, despite being able to fly, that are not Flying types, nor have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}. These include {{p|Beedrill}}, {{p|Venomoth}}, {{p|Heracross}}, {{p|Dustox}}, {{p|Volbeat}}, {{p|Illumise}} and {{p|Volcarona}}.
* With the exception of {{p|Whirlipede}}, all mid-evolution Bug Pokémon are based on cocoons.
* {{m|String Shot}} is the only Bug-type status move that can miss.
* Generation V introduced the most Bug-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 18 and Generation IV introduced the least Bug-type Pokémon, with {{tt|nine|counting only one of Wormadam's form}}.
** Additionally, Generation V is the only Generation to introduce a Bug-type legendary Pokémon: {{p|Genesect}}.
** Generation V is the only Generation not to introduce a dual Bug/{{t|Flying}} Pokémon.
* All Gym Leaders and Elite Four members that specialize in Bug-type Pokémon are male.
** This could be a reference to the stereotype that girls are afraid of bugs, a stereotype that {{an|Misty}} lives up to in the anime when she first encounters Ash's {{AP|Caterpie}}.
* Statistically, Bug-type Pokémon are the weakest, as most fully evolved Bug-type Pokémon have stats that aren't even close to 400. However, Generation IV and V introduced several Bug-type Pokémon with base stat totals over 500, including one at 600 (Genesect).
* The Bug type was the most common 4x weakness in [[Generation I]], with 11 Pokémon doubly weak to it, mainly due to {{t|Poison}} type having a weakness to it at the time.
* Generation IV introduced the most Bug-type moves of any Generation, with seven and Generation II and III introduced the least Bug-type moves, with four.

Poison (type)

2012-06-07T04:49:05Z

Evetype: /* Trivia */

{{types}}
The '''Poison type''' (Japanese: '''どくタイプ''' ''Poison type'') is one of the seventeen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers that specialize in Poison-type Pokémon include [[Koga]], [[Aya]] and [[Janine]] of [[Fuchsia City]], all of whom are related, and [[Homika]] from an unknown city set to debut in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}. Some villainous teams, such as [[Team Rocket]], also frequently use Poison-type Pokémon. Prior to Generation IV, where moves are designated [[Physical move|physical]] or [[Special move|special]] based on the move itself rather than its type, all Poison-type moves were physical.

}}

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
When used defensively, the Poison type is considered one of the best in the game. This is because of its ability to block or cause [[status ailment]]s and resist common moves. Its obvious weakness, {{m|Earthquake}}, can be mitigated by the variety of dual-typed {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Bug}}/Poison Pokémon, as well as the {{p|Zubat}} family's {{t|Flying}} type and the {{p|Gastly}} and {{p|Koffing}} families' {{a|Levitate}}. Additionally, the Poison type resists itself, {{t|Bug}}, {{t|Fighting}}, and {{t|Grass}}, giving it resistances to common moves such as {{m|Grass Knot}}, {{m|X-Scissor}}, and {{M|Close Combat}}. Moreover, Poison-types tend to hold potent status and support moves, such as {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, and {{m|Toxic}}. Immune to {{status|Poison}} and {{m|Toxic Spikes}} themselves, they have an opportunity to absorb status effects as well. [[Koga]]'s words of "confusion, sleep, poison" describe the Poison type very well.

===Offense===
Offensively, Poison-type moves are only suggested for inflicting the Poison condition, [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] or using support moves. Its only strength, which is against the Grass-type is largely mitigated by the variety of Grass/Poison Pokémon as well as {{p|Torterra}}'s {{t|Ground}}, {{p|Lileep}} and {{p|Cradily}}'s {{t|Rock}}, and especially {{p|Ferroseed}} and {{p|Ferrothorn}}'s {{t|Steel}}. {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Flying}} are much more useful in countering the Grass-type. Also, Poison moves are not very effective on Poison, {{t|Rock}}, {{t|Ghost}}, or {{t|Ground}}, and are completely ineffective against {{t|Steel}}. Hence, resistances to the Poison type are far more common than weaknesses to it. Poison-type moves are better when used to wear down the opponent in long battles rather than to knock out the opponent in a few moves.

===Contest Properties===
When used in Contests, Poison-type moves typically become [[Smart Contest|Smart]] moves, but can also be of the other four Contest types, excluding [[Cute Contest|Cute]].

==Pokémon==
As of Generation V, there are 57 Poison-type Pokémon or 8.78% of all Pokémon, making it the eighth most common type.

==Trivia==
* With the exception of {{p|Arceus}} holding a {{DL|Plate|Toxic Plate}}, there is no Poison-type [[legendary Pokémon]]. This makes it the only type without any persistent legendary Pokémon.
* Poison is the most common type in [[Generation I]]; even as of [[Generation V]], over half of the Poison-type Pokémon currently known were introduced in the first generation.
** Nearly 1/4 of the [[Generation I]] Pokémon are Poison type.
* In [[Generation I]], the Poison type is {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against {{type|Bug}} Pokémon, while the Bug is super effective against Poison-type Pokémon. This trait has never been shared with any other type match-up, and is likewise no longer true.
* The Poison type is the only one of the original 15 types not mentioned in the song [[2.B.A. Master]]. Instead, the "Flame type" (which doesn't exist) is mentioned.
* A Pokémon of every type except Poison was added to the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] in {{game|Platinum}}.
* Only odd numbered generations have introduced pure Poison-type Pokémon.
** Also, every such generation has a two stage family of blob-shaped pure Poison types: {{p|Grimer}} and {{p|Muk}} in Generation I, {{p|Gulpin}} and {{p|Swalot}} in Generation III, and {{p|Trubbish}} and {{p|Garbodor}} in Generation V.
* Generation I introduced the most Poison-type Pokémon of any Generation with 33, and Generation II introduced the least Poison-type Pokémon, with four.
* The Poison type is one of three types that will never (with the current type chart) be doubly [[Damage modification|super effective]] against any Pokémon, as it is only super effective against one type. The other two are the {{t|Normal}} type and {{t|Dragon}} type.
** However, in Generation I, due to {{t|Bug}} being weak to Poison, it was super effective against Grass/Bug-type Pokémon ({{p|Paras}} and {{p|Parasect}}).
* Generation I introduced the most Poison-type moves of any Generation with eight, and Generation II introduced the least Poison-type moves, with only {{m|Sludge Bomb|one}}.

Legendary Pokémon

[[File:Entei_Book.png|thumb|right|370px|An artist's interpretation of {{p|Entei}}, a legendary Pokémon, in the anime.]]
'''Legendary Pokémon''' are a group of incredibly rare and often very powerful {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

While in English, all are typically grouped under the banner of "legendary", there are three distinct terms in Japanese that are used to refer to them. One, '''伝説のポケモン''' ''densetsu no Pokémon'', literally "legendary Pokémon", refers to Pokémon such as {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}, who are featured prominently in the legends of the Pokémon world. A second, '''幻のポケモン''' ''maboroshi no Pokémon'', literally "illusory Pokémon", refers to Pokémon seen so rarely, such as {{p|Mew}}, that some question their very existence. This term was translated in the [[Generation IV]] games as "mirage Pokémon", in reference to the various [[Sinnoh myths|myths of Sinnoh]], and many consider it to refer to Pokémon that are restricted to [[event Pokémon|Nintendo event]]s, not available during the course of normal gameplay. The third and newest term is '''神話のポケモン''' ''shinwa no Pokémon'', literally "mythical Pokémon", which refers to the Pokémon which are spoken of as the creators of the Sinnoh region.

==Characteristics of legendary Pokémon==

===Statistical averages{{tt|*|Considering Alternate Formes as separate Pokémon, counting Arceus once only and without Phione}}===
{{BaseStatNoCat|
HP=93.13 |
Attack=106.21 |
Defense=99.42 |
SpAtk=111.51 |
SpDef=104.25 |
Speed=101.15 }}

Aside from the high [[stats]] shared by most legendary Pokémon, many of them are only available once to the {{player}} in a given save file, and to obtain another legitimately, one must [[trade]] with another game. The [[gender]] of most legendary Pokémon is unknown (though there are seven notable exceptions in {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Cresselia}}, {{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}}), and all but {{p|Manaphy}} are unable to breed in captivity, even with {{p|Ditto}} (and Manaphy only produces the unevolvable {{p|Phione}} when it breeds with Ditto.)

No legendary Pokémon is known to [[evolution|evolve]], though many are part of a [[legendary trio]] or [[legendary duo]]. Much like [[starter Pokémon]] appear at the beginning of each [[regional Pokédex]] and their generation's portion of the [[National Pokédex]], legendary Pokémon typically appear at the very end of them. There is one exception to this rule: {{p|Victini}}. Victini's [[Unova Pokédex]] number is #000, coming before the region's [[starter Pokémon]] in the Pokédex.

===In the anime===
Legendary Pokémon typically make their anime debut in a {{pkmn|movie}}, rather than first appearing in a normal episode. Many are held in very high regard in all forms of canon, though their status varies between the games and anime. For example, their {{wp|deity|godlike}} status is expressed in both the anime and the games, though in the anime they are shown to be able to breed, whereas in the games they cannot, and in the anime most of them supposedly cannot be caught in Poké Balls, while in the games, they can. In the anime they are often only seen by special {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, usually the anime's main protagonist, [[Ash Ketchum]], and other people who have a special connection to them. [[Villainous teams]] and others with bad intentions often seek them out, due both to their rarity and their superior power.

It has been shown that the capture of certain legendary Pokémon may lead to great catastrophe, due to their often pivotal role in nature. Despite this, however, Trainers using Legendary Pokémon via [[Poké Ball]]s or even as a non-owned Pokémon is not unheard of. An example of the latter use is the fact that {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}} befriended and fought official {{pkmn|battle}}s with an {{TP|Noland|Articuno}}. Likewise, {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} in the anime owned the three {{TP|Brandon|Regis}} in Poké Balls and trained them and there were no chaotic events that followed. {{si|Tobias}} is another Trainer who has been shown to have legendary Pokémon in Poké Balls, seeing to own a {{p|Darkrai}} and a {{p|Latios}}. Another Trainer in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] owned a {{p|Heatran}}. Finally, a [[Nurse Joy]] who visited the Pewter Gym under assignment of the [[Pokémon Inspection Agency|PIA]] kept a {{p|Latias}} in a Poké Ball.

There are some cases where legendary Pokémon are implied to breed in the wild, as seen with {{p|Lugia}}, though this is not the case in the games. Some are not immortal nor invincible, as seen by the death of {{OBP|Celebi|M04}}. The injury of {{p|Arceus}} is also a debatable factor in the immortality of legendaries. Only some, in fact, are often considered unique, some of these being {{an|Mewtwo}} (due to the [[The Birth of Mewtwo|circumstances of its creation]]), {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, {{p|Reshiram}}, and {{p|Zekrom}}, due to their roles in the creation of the Pokémon world and their respective regions. {{p|Genesect}} is also presumed to be a unique species, due to the modifications made to it by [[Team Plasma]].

==List of legendary Pokémon==
Of the {{numpkmn}} Pokémon species, 47 are considered to be legendary (7.24%), while several more have certain characteristics of legendary Pokémon. Each [[generation]] has introduced at least one legendary trio and one legendary duo, with the notable exception of [[Generation V]] which introduced the first legendary quartet and no legendary duo.

===Generation I===
The legendary Pokémon introduced in [[Generation I]] can be broken into two groups: the [[legendary birds]] and the Mew duo.

[[File:Legendary birds.png|thumb|right|270px|{{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Articuno}}, and {{p|Moltres}}; art from a [[Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos (Warner Bros. promo)|TCG card]] by [[Mitsuhiro Arita]]]]
The three legendary birds, also known as the Winged Mirages, are the resident [[legendary trio]] of the [[Kanto]] region. Each of them is based on a mythical bird, and each is associated with a [[Seasons|season]] (though none of the three is associated with autumn).

In the games, all three are available in the Kanto region in all of its appearances except for [[Generation II]]. {{p|Articuno}} takes up residence in the [[Seafoam Islands]] in the south, {{p|Zapdos}} in the [[Power Plant]] (next to it in Generation IV) in the east, and {{p|Moltres}} in a variety of places, {{ka|Victory Road}}, [[Mt. Ember]], or [[Mt. Silver]], depending on the generation. In Generation IV, they are also found {{pkmn2|roaming}} [[Sinnoh]], but only in {{game|Platinum}}.

In the anime, the legendary birds appear together in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'', where they rule over the islands surrounding [[Shamouti Island]]. If they are disturbed and begin to fight, only {{OBP|Lugia|M02}} can stop them, though it will fail without additional help from the Chosen One. Separately, Articuno appears in ''[[EP189|Freeze Frame]]'', ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno]]'', and ''[[AG136|The Symbol Life]]'', while Zapdos appears in ''[[EP242|As Clear As Crystal]]'', ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', and ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]'', and Moltres appears in ''[[EP074|All Fired Up!]]'' and ''[[SS018|The Search for the Legend]]''.

====Mew duo====
[[Image:Mewtwo and Mew.png|thumb|250px|left|{{p|Mewtwo}} and {{p|Mew}} in [[M01|the first movie]]]]
The Mew duo, so named because of their similar genetic structure and Mewtwo's origin as an enhanced clone of Mew, are a pair of catlike Pokémon which are believed by many to be among the most rare and powerful Pokémon that exist.

In the games, {{p|Mew}} is only mentioned in years-old journals found in the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} on [[Cinnabar Island]]. It was the first {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive Pokémon, being otherwise available only by [[Mew glitch|glitching the game]] or [[cheating]]. One is available in the wild on [[Faraway Island]], an event area in {{game|Emerald}}, the only time it is legitimately able to be caught from the wild.

Mew appears in the anime in both [[M01|the first movie]] and [[M08|the eighth movie]]. In the first, it appears to fight against Mewtwo, while in the second, its status as the Pokémon from which life began is explored.

In the games, {{p|Mewtwo}} is revealed to have been cloned from Mew in the journals in the Pokémon Mansion. Unlike most Pokémon, however, Mew gave live birth to Mewtwo, rather than laying an {{pkmn|Egg}} and Mewtwo hatching from it. Mewtwo was too powerful, however, and it escapes from the Pokémon Mansion, destroying it in the process. Mewtwo then makes its home in [[Cerulean Cave]], where all kinds of powerful Pokémon live.

In the anime, {{an|Mewtwo}} was featured prominently, appearing in several episodes of the [[original series]], [[M01|the first movie]], and [[Mewtwo Returns|the first special episode]]. Mewtwo's origin is slightly different as well, with [[Team Rocket]] boss {{an|Giovanni}} funding a group of scientists to create an enhanced clone of {{p|Mew}} for his own use. Though Mewtwo is initially a very angry Pokémon, viewing all humans as evil due to the acts of the scientists and Giovanni, eventually, when [[Ash Ketchum]] sacrifices himself to stop the fighting between Mew and Mewtwo, Mewtwo's heart softens, and he learns that some humans do care about their, and all, Pokémon. Meeting up with Ash again, Mewtwo is further shown that, although it is a genetically-enhanced clone of Mew, it and the other clones are no different than normal Pokémon, and because it erased Ash and his friends' memory at the end of their first meeting, realizes that Ash himself truly does care for others, even if he doesn't know them.

Mewtwo is known in the anime to travel around the world, traversing rooftops at night, and living its life free. It occasionally appears in anime openings, sometimes with Mew, and sometimes alone.

===Generation II===
More legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation II]], adding six more for a running total of 11. The legendary Pokémon introduced in this generation down can be separated into three groups.

====Legendary beasts====
{{main|Legendary beasts}}
[[File:Entei Raikou Suicune.png|thumb|right|250px|[[Eusine]] and {{ga|Lyra}} discover {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}} in the basement of the [[Burned Tower]]]]
Like the legendary birds of the previous generation, a second trio of similar types was introduced in the neighboring [[Johto]] region. These legendary beasts, so named because their features are based on many different creatures, both real and mythical, as well as mythological deities, were trapped in the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]] when it was struck by lightning and burned to the ground, resulting in their death. The trio was revived by the power of {{p|Ho-Oh}} and now [[roaming Pokémon|roam across the land]] because of their great power. It is unknown whether the three were already a Suicune, Raikou, and Entei when they died, or whether they were simply three non-legendary Pokémon, and Ho-Oh reincarnated them as the first legendary beasts. In the case of the latter, it is possible that these three would be the original three beasts, who created multiple descendants. For example, a new Entei is said to be born whenever a new volcano is formed.

In the games, more than one of each exists, with only the trio that roams Johto after being discovered in Brass Tower's basement during [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] being that of the legend. Each was captured and changed into a [[Shadow Pokémon]] by [[Cipher]] in {{g|Colosseum}}, while one of the three, depending on the player's [[starter Pokémon]] choice, roams Kanto in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, {{p|Entei}} for {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Raikou}} for {{p|Squirtle}}, and {{p|Suicune}} for {{p|Charmander}}.

In the anime, the legendary beasts did not appear together until [[M13|the thirteenth movie]], despite being introduced in Generation II. It appears that an initial plan for the three Johto-era {{pkmn|movie}}s was to have each feature one of the legendary beasts in a central role, with {{OBP|Entei|M03}} taking a central role in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown]]'' and {{OBP|Suicune|M04}} taking the stage in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]''. This did not pan out, however, possibly due to the canning of Johto's {{p|Celebi}} plotline, and Raikou was relegated to a role in ''[[The Legend of Thunder]]'', featuring anime characters based on {{ga|Ethan}} and {{ga|Kris}}, rather than [[M05|the fifth movie]], which focused on legendary Pokémon from the then-upcoming [[Generation III]] instead.

Each of the beasts made an episodic appearance, as well, with Entei appearing in ''[[EP259|Entei at Your Own Risk]]'', Raikou briefly appearing in ''[[EP180|Houndoom's Special Delivery]]'', and Suicune having the most prominence (as in the games) through its appearance in ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'Dile]]'', ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll]]'', and ''[[DP028|Drifloon On the Wind!]]''.

====Tower duo====
[[Image:Lugia_and_ho-oh.jpg|200px|thumb|left|{{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}]]
The first [[version mascot]]s that were also legendary Pokémon, {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}} are a pair of legendary birds which formerly resided in [[Ecruteak City]] atop tall towers, leading to their designation. However, when the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]], the home of Lugia, was struck by lightning, burned to the ground, and they both flew away, Lugia resolved to make its new home in the [[Whirl Islands]] and Ho-Oh to search the world for a pure-hearted Trainer. The two are thought to be as closely related as they are polar opposites, being based on the eastern legends of the {{wp|Fènghuáng}} and {{wp|Ryūjin}}.

In the games, Lugia does not play a central role in the Generation II storyline, instead being mentioned only as having lived in Ecruteak City before the Brass Tower burned. It is found in the Whirl Islands in the Generation II games and their {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|remakes}} if the player holds a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Silver Wing}}. It reaches prominence in the storyline of {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, where [[XD001|one]] is corrupted by [[Cipher]] to become the ultimate [[Shadow Pokémon]], unable to be purified. It is also available on [[Navel Rock]] in Generation III, as an event-exclusive legendary Pokémon.

In the anime, Lugia is featured in a central role in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'', where it is revealed that {{Ash}} is the Chosen One who must help it to quell the fighting of the [[legendary birds]]. Another pair of them appeared when Ash and his friends traveled to the Whirl Islands in Johto. This implied that legendary Pokémon could breed, though it is unknown whether this is should be considered a "mistake" by the anime cannon, as legendary Pokémon cannot breed in the games.

Ho-Oh has a much greater focus during Generation II, being named as the creator of the legendary beasts. It can be found, if the player has a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Rainbow Wing}}, atop [[Bell Tower]] in the Generation II games and their remakes. It makes an appearance in {{g|Colosseum}}, as well, as a reward for purifying all Shadow Pokémon, and on [[Navel Rock]] like Lugia.

In the anime, {{an|Ho-Oh}} is notably the first legendary Pokémon that appeared (outside of the [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master|opening animation]], at least), flying over a rainbow at the start of [[Ash Ketchum]]'s journey at the end of ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. Ash has subsequently seen it several times over the course of his journey, but has never come face-to-face with it.

====Celebi====
[[Image:Celebi_Shrine.png|thumb|right|100px|{{p|Celebi}} on its shrine in [[Ilex Forest]]]]
Although it has no relation to Mew that has been revealed, {{p|Celebi}} was dubbed the "New Mew" when it was introduced in Generation II because of their similar size and stats, as well as the status of being the last in the [[National Pokédex]] as of its generation and being unobtainable through normal gameplay. Unlike Mew, however, it was not believed to be the ancestor of all Pokémon, but merely the guardian of forests, traveling through time to make sure of their purity.

In the games, Celebi is available only by event, either directly (via [[Trade|trading]] or [[Mystery Gift]]), or, in {{game|Crystal}}, through an event involving the [[GS Ball]]. This made it the first event Pokémon that was able to be captured from the wild in the games after using an event-only item, something which would continue forward even to the current generation. Celebi also makes an appearance in {{g|Colosseum}} and {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, but it is unobtainable.

In the anime, Celebi takes a central role in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'' and ''[[AG155|The Green Guardian]]''. In the movie, [[Celebi (M04)|one]] accidentally brings [[Sam]] to the future when attempting to escape from a poacher, and is later captured in a [[Iron-Masked Marauder|Team Rocket member]]'s [[Dark Ball]]s to be used to destroy the forest and rule the world. In the episode, another is attempting to heal after putting out a forest fire, and needs the help of Pokémon Ranger [[Solana]], as well as the anime's protagonists, to do so. A {{OBP|Celebi|M13}} also played an important role in ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'', where [[Grings Kodai]] wanted to use the "ripple of time" created by Celebi's time travels to allow himself to get visions of the future.

===Generation III===
Many more legendary Pokémon were added to the roster in [[Generation III]], with the ten new legendary Pokémon bringing the total to 21. At this point in the series, legendary Pokémon began to have a greater role in the storyline of the games, with the plot of the [[villainous teams]] introduced in this generation and the next involving the reawakening of ancient legendary Pokémon for the team's own use.

====Legendary golems====
{{main|Legendary golems}}
[[Image:Regis.png|thumb|left|{{p|Regice}}, {{p|Registeel}}, and {{p|Regirock}}]]
This third trio of legendary Pokémon, based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend, featured minimally in Hoenn-region legend. They are based on the three ancient ages of humanity, the ice age, the stone age, and the iron age. Truly, this legendary trio, as well as its [[trio master|master]], {{p|Regigigas}}, feature the most complicated method of in-game availability, with puzzles made of [[braille]] in the Hoenn region being the keys to unlocking their mystery.

As complex as the method in which they are obtained is the legend of the golems, which is told in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and finally completed in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. Long ago, an ancient Pokémon was said to have moved the continents into their present positions by pulling them with ropes. After it was finished, it created in its image three Pokémon: {{p|Regirock}}, from clay, {{p|Regice}}, from ice, and {{p|Registeel}}, from magma. Ancient people, seeing that the Pokémon was so powerful, sealed it away in [[Snowpoint Temple]], while those it had created were separated from it and taken to the Hoenn region, sealed in three chambers, and left in the hopes that one day, someone would unlock the chambers and be able to tame the three so as to tame Regigigas. They are available in the [[Desert Ruins]], [[Island Cave]], and [[Ancient Tomb]] in Hoenn, as well as the [[Rock Peak Ruins]], [[Iceberg Ruins]], and [[Iron Ruins]] in [[Sinnoh]] with an event {{p|Regigigas}}.

In the anime, the [[Legendary golems (M08)|three legendary golems]] starred together guarding the [[Tree of Beginning]] in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', as well as members of {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}'s team in the Battle Frontier saga.

====Eon duo====
{{main|Eon duo}}
[[File:Latias Latios.png|thumb|220px|right|{{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}}]]
Another of Hoenn's minor legendary Pokémon, {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}} do not feature a distinct legend behind them. Nonetheless, they are incredibly rare, with only one of the two available normally to players, and the other available through an event.

Latios and Latias take on counterpart availability in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} as well as {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, with Latios being a [[roaming Pokémon]] in Ruby and SoulSilver, and Latias doing the same in Sapphire and HeartGold. In Emerald, after the player has defeated the Elite Four, their mother will ask if the Pokémon mentioned on TV was red or blue, and depending on that, one of the two will be roaming Hoenn. The other member of the duo will be found on [[Southern Island]], accessible by [[Eon Ticket]], in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, and in [[Pewter City]], through the [[Enigma Stone]] event, in HeartGold and SoulSilver.

In the anime, Latios and Latias were the stars of ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes]]'', where the two guarded the legendary city of [[Alto Mare]]. With a strong connection to the [[Soul Dew]], the two were responsible for protecting it from {{mov|Annie}} and [[Oakley]], who wished to steal it. In the main series, {{si|Tobias}} used a Latios against Ash, as his second Pokémon in the first semi-final battle of the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]].

====Weather trio====
{{main|Weather trio}}
[[Image:Weather trio.png|250px|thumb|right|A depiction of the cataclysmic battle between {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, and {{p|Rayquaza}}]]
The trio of super-ancient Pokémon, known for their [[weather conditions|weather-related]] [[Ability|Abilities]] as the weather trio, serve as the [[version mascot]]s of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, being the first legendary trio to be version mascots, and represent the three major components of the Earth: the hydrosphere, the lithosphere, and the atmosphere. Said to have shaped the land and sea, {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} are among the most powerful legendary Pokémon, while {{p|Rayquaza}} prevents the two from quarreling.

During the course of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, [[Team Magma]] or [[Team Aqua]], depending on version, seek out Groudon or Kyogre, with the intention of awakening them to make more homes for Pokémon of the land or sea. Eventually, the plan goes wrong, and the player is forced to defeat or capture the legendary Pokémon to stop a global disaster. In {{game|Emerald}}, instead, both teams are on the loose, intending to awaken their respective legendary Pokémon, and only with interference by the player and {{p|Rayquaza}} does the fight end up resolved.

In the anime, Groudon and Kyogre appeared in the two-part episode consisting of ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''. In these episodes, Team Magma and Team Aqua finally succeed in awakening the two, as in the games, though their conflict is resolved very quickly, much to the annoyance of viewers. Rayquaza appeared in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', where it fought against the pair of {{OBP|Deoxys|M07}}.

====Jirachi====
[[File:385Jirachi AG anime.png|thumb|left|{{p|Jirachi}} in the anime]]
One of the two event legendary Pokémon of Generation III, {{p|Jirachi}} is known to grant wishes written on the tags on its head each time it awakens: once every millennium.

In the games, Jirachi has never had a concrete location tied to it, and it cannot be captured from the wild legitimately. However, several direct transfers have been present in the history of the franchise, most notably in the form of a [[Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disc|bonus disc]] released as a preview of {{g|Colosseum}} which fixes the [[Berry glitch]] present in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}.

Jirachi starred in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', where it befriended [[Max]] as the group attempted to keep it away from [[Butler]], a former [[Team Magma]] operative.

====Deoxys====
[[File:386Deoxys formes.png|thumb|right|{{p|Deoxys}} in its four Formes: Attack, Normal, Defense, Speed]]
A virus from space which mutated when shot by a laser, {{p|Deoxys}} was the first legendary Pokémon known to [[Form differences|change form]], taking different forms on in each of the [[Generation III]] games - Normal Forme in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, Attack Forme in {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon FireRed|s}}, Defense Forme in {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon LeafGreen|s}}, and Speed Forme in {{game|Emerald}}, and being able to change them at will starting from [[Generation IV]] games with special meteorites found in [[Veilstone City]], {{rt|3|Kanto}} and [[Nacrene City]].

In the games, Deoxys is only available on [[Birth Island]] when the {{DL|Event item|AuroraTicket}} is downloaded to FireRed, LeafGreen, or Emerald, though as with all event legendary Pokémon, it has also been available through direct download via [[Mystery Gift]].

Deoxys featured heavily in the seventh Pokémon movie, ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', where its Attack and Defense Formes were first revealed. One of the two {{OBP|Deoxys|M07}} featured befriends a boy named [[Tory Lund]], who fears Pokémon otherwise and does not realize what Deoxys is, while the other seeks out the first, concerned for its safety. Another Deoxys featured in ''[[AG171|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys Crisis!]]'', where Deoxys's Speed Forme debuted in the anime.

===Generation IV===
Thirteen more legendary Pokémon were added in [[Generation IV]], the most of any generation so far, bringing the total to a whopping 34. Many of the legendary Pokémon of this generation have little connection to the plot of the games, instead being minor, post-League sidequests for the player to go on. Six of the 13 introduced, even, are not in Sinnoh's regional Pokédex, appearing only in the National Dex, a first for any Pokémon.

Prior to Generation IV, 680 had been the limit on a legendary Pokémon's [[Base stats|base stat]] total: this limit was set by {{p|Mewtwo}} in [[Generation I]] and was only matched - never surpassed - in Generation II and Generation III. As of Generation IV, however, the most powerful of all Pokémon in terms of base stats is no longer Mewtwo or any of its equals, but {{p|Arceus}}, the supposed creator of the Pokémon universe.

====Lake guardians====
{{main|Lake guardians}}
[[File:Mesprit Azelf Uxie anime.png|thumb|right|{{p|Azelf}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Uxie}} in the anime]]
The lake guardians, [[Sinnoh]]'s native legendary trio, represent the spirit of all consciousness, with {{p|Uxie}} embodying knowledge, {{p|Mesprit}} embodying emotion, and {{p|Azelf}} embodying willpower. According to legend, having been created by {{p|Arceus|the Original One}}, the trio have the power to tame the powerful dragons it also created.

In the games, Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf are found in the caverns of [[Lake Acuity]], [[Lake Verity]], and [[Lake Valor]], though Mesprit will roam Sinnoh after the player has encountered it, rather than battle immediately as the other two will. The trio are captured by [[Team Galactic]]'s {{tc|Commander}}s, [[Jupiter]], [[Mars]], and [[Saturn]], and subjected to the experiments of [[Charon]] to draw out the [[Red Chain]] from the gems in their bodies. Cyrus summons {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, and alone, the lake guardians' power is not enough to stop them. {{p|Giratina}} interferes and draws Cyrus into the Distortion World, where the lake guardians assist the player in navigation toward Giratina's lair.

In the anime, the lake guardians appeared, first in spirit form, in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage]]'', ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals]]'', and ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]'', to {{an|Dawn}}, {{Ash}}, and {{an|Brock}}. They were captured by [[J]], who had been hired by [[Team Galactic]], in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', and were freed by Ash, Dawn, and Brock to stop the power of Dialga and Palkia in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]''.

====Creation trio====
{{main|Creation trio}}
[[File:Dialga-Palkia-Giratina.jpg|180px|thumb|right|Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina artwork from {{game|Platinum}}]]
The legendary creators of the Pokémon universe, the creation trio consisting of {{p|Dialga}} of time, {{p|Palkia}} of space, and {{p|Giratina}} of antimatter, are, like the weather trio before them, the mascots of [[Sinnoh]]'s trio of games, {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.

In the games, Dialga and Palkia are sought by [[Cyrus]] to destroy and then remake the universe without spirit, a thing he hates about humanity. At [[Spear Pillar]], one of the two will be able to be captured in Diamond and Pearl, depending on the game, while Giratina may be obtained after the Pokémon League has been conquered. In Platinum, however, Giratina interferes with Cyrus's planned destruction of the universe, and may be captured in its home, the [[Distortion World]], while Dialga and Palkia cannot be found until the Elite Four have been defeated.

In the anime, {{mov|Dialga}} and {{mov|Palkia}} appeared together, fighting, in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', while Dialga and {{mov|Giratina}} appeared in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. The three appeared together, finally, in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. Dialga and Palkia were also summoned at Spear Pillar and chained by Cyrus in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', but were freed when he escaped into another universe and the Red Chain was shattered by Ash, Dawn, Brock, and their Pokémon.

====Lunar duo====
[[File:Darkrai-Newmoon Island.png|thumb|left|{{p|Darkrai}} on [[Newmoon Island]]]]
Two sidequest legendary Pokémon and event legendary Pokémon, {{p|Cresselia}} and {{p|Darkrai}} represent two phases of the moon with opposite connotations: Darkrai represents the {{wp|new moon}}, the cause of the darkest nights and bringer of nightmares, while Cresselia represents the {{wp|full moon}}, a sign of hope and good dreams.

In the games, Cresselia can be found on [[Fullmoon Island]] as part of a post-League quest to rid {{tc|Sailor}} Eldrich's son of a nightmare. It will flee immediately, roaming Sinnoh and leaving behind a [[Lunar Wing]], which will heal the boy. Darkrai is found on [[Newmoon Island]], accessible only with a [[Member Card]], and can only be obtained through an event.

The lunar duo made their debuts separately, with a {{OBP|Darkrai|M10}} appearing in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', attempting to stop Dialga and Palkia's fight from destroying its home, [[Alamos Town]], and protecting [[Alice]], its friend. Cresselia first appeared in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle!]]'', where it fought briefly against a Darkrai.

====Sea guardians====
[[File:Manaphyphione.png|thumb|right|{{p|Manaphy}} and {{p|Phione}}]]
The sea guardian Pokémon are a legendary duo that, somewhat like Mewtwo and Mew, is comprised of a parent and child. {{p|Manaphy}}, a legendary Pokémon that makes its home in warmer seas south of the known regions, bears {{p|Phione}} when bred in captivity in the known regions.

In the games, Manaphy can only be found through an event: either it may be transferred in its Egg from one of the {{ga|Pokémon Ranger|Ranger}} games after activating an event in those games, or can be directly received via various Mystery Gift events. Like Jirachi, it cannot be legitimately found in the wild. Phione, of course, must be bred from a Manaphy and a {{p|Ditto}}, making it the only legendary Pokémon available only through this method.

In the anime, Manaphy debuted in ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', where, like in the games, it first appeared as an Egg, and befriended {{an|May}}, who it regarded as its mother. It was the only Pokémon able to find the mysterious Temple of the Sea, [[Samiya]], and was regarded as the Prince of the Sea. For this, it was sought by [[the Phantom]], a pirate who wished to take the jewels of the Sea Crown deep in Samiya. Phione debuted under different circumstances, being found in [[Chocovine Town]] in ''[[DP113|Hold the Phione!]]'', where they were revered as bringers of good luck.

Phione's status as a legendary Pokémon is often disputed, due to the fact that it can breed and multiple individuals can be obtained. [[Pokémon.com]]'s mailbag was once asked if Phione was legendary, to which the answer was initially no, but was quickly changed to yes; the whole mailbag section has since been taken down with the restructure of Pokémon.com. In the official game guide to {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, which is made by [[The Pokémon Company International]], it is stated that Phione is not legendary. In [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]], it is not referred to by the game as "rare" or "legendary", which is the case for all other legendary Pokémon in the game. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, it is banned from the [[Battle Subway]], a rule which typically applies only to legendary Pokémon.

====Heatran====
[[File:Heatran anime.png|thumb|right|{{p|Heatran}} in the anime]]
{{p|Heatran}} is the embodiment of the planet's boiling {{wp|core}}, appearing in [[Stark Mountain]] in [[Sinnoh]], where it was said to have been born at the same time as Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina created Sinnoh at [[Spear Pillar]] and created the [[Battle Zone]]. Heatran is the first, and currently only, legendary Pokémon with a variable gender.

Heatran first appeared in the anime in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the control of [[Marcus]], and later appeared in ''[[DP169|Pokémon Ranger: Heatran Rescue!]]'' as part of a Pokémon Ranger rescue mission.

====Regigigas====
[[File:Regigigas anime.png|thumb|left|{{p|Regigigas}} in the anime]]
{{p|Regigigas}} is the master of the [[legendary golems]], having created them in ancient times and was said to have moved the continents in place, pulling them by rope.

In the games, Regigigas is found at [[Snowpoint Temple]], though it will not awaken unless all three of the legendary golems are in the player's party.

Regigigas appeared in the anime in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', where it attempted to stop a glacier from destroying [[Ten'i Village]]. Another appeared in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'', where it was hunted by [[J]] and defended by {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}.

====Shaymin====
[[File:Seabreak path.png|thumb|right|{{p|Shaymin}} running down [[Seabreak Path]]]]
A legendary Pokémon that has the Ability to purify areas instantly and bring plant life in abundance, {{p|Shaymin}} is referred to as the Mew of Generation IV. Unlike previous event legendary Pokémon with its straight-100 base stats, however, Shaymin has the Ability to change forms, between Land Forme and Sky Forme.

In the games, like Darkrai, Shaymin is catchable in the wild after an event item has been obtained: this time [[Oak's Letter]], which requests the player's help on {{rt|224|Sinnoh}}. After giving thanks to someone or something, Shaymin will appear, and will be available to be caught at the end of the [[Seabreak Path]] that appears, in the [[Flower Paradise]].

Shaymin has a central role in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', when it, as well as its Sky Forme, were officially revealed. It also has a minor role in ''[[DP168|Keeping In Top Forme!]]'' involving [[Marley]].

====Arceus====
[[File:Arceus ruins art.png|thumb|left|{{p|Arceus}} creates a Pokémon Egg for {{ga|Ethan}} and {{ga|Lyra}}]]
The final Pokémon of Generation IV and the most powerful known so far, {{p|Arceus}} is, according to legend, the creator of the Pokémon universe. Born of an Egg in the chaos at the beginning, Arceus's powers were awakened immediately, and from itself it made time and space, matter and antimatter, and set {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}} to guard them. It created spirit as well, setting {{p|Uxie}} in charge of knowledge, {{p|Mesprit}} in charge of emotion, and {{p|Azelf}} in charge of willpower, before falling into an eternal slumber.

Arceus can be awoken from its sleep using an [[Azure Flute]] at [[Spear Pillar]], which will open a staircase to its home, the [[Hall of Origin]]. There it can be captured, though no legitimate way of obtaining the Azure Flute has yet been released.

In the anime, {{OBP|Arceus|M12}} starred in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', where it set out to destroy [[Michina Town]] and its people for their betrayal in ancient times. After changing history with the help of Dialga, Ash and his friends revealed to Arceus the true nature of human beings, and it left Michina Town in peace.

===Generation V===
Thirteen additional legendary Pokémon were added in [[Generation V]], tying with Generation IV to be the largest addition to the ranks, totaling 47 legendary Pokémon. {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} played a large role in the storyline of Black & White, with the respective mascot Pokémon being a necessary and unavoidable capture to progress to the endgame. The rest of the Pokémon mattered little to the narrative progression and some are still unavailable legitimately, waiting instead on future events to unlock their existence.

====Victini====
[[File:Victini-Liberty Garden Island.png|thumb|160px|{{ga|Hilda}}, {{p|Victini}}, and {{ga|Hilbert}}]]
{{p|Victini}} is found at the beginning of [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number|Unova's Pokédex]], being #000. Much like {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Manaphy}} and {{p|Shaymin}} before it, each of its base stats are 100. It is the first [[Generation V]] [[event Pokémon]] revealed and allowed to be obtained. Victini is considered the embodiment of victory. It is said that a Trainer with a Victini will win anything no matter what.

In Pokémon Black and White, if the player possesses the [[Liberty Ticket]], the player can take a boat to [[Liberty Garden]], where Team Plasma is attempting to obtain Victini for the energy it radiates. It is later revealed that Victini was sealed in the basement of the lighthouse by a wealthy person in order to protect it from people with bad intentions.

Victini is the star of ''[[M14|White—Victini and Zekrom and Black—Victini and Reshiram]]''.

====Legendary musketeers====
{{main|Legendary musketeers}}
[[File:Legendary Musketeers.png|thumb|left|200px|The legendary musketeers]]
{{p|Cobalion}}, {{p|Terrakion}}, {{p|Virizion}} are a trio of Pokémon based on the titular characters of the 1844 French novel ''{{wp|The Three Musketeers}}'', and partially on hooved mammals such as deer, antelopes, oxen, goats, and horses. According to legend, they protect Pokémon from having their habitats destroyed by humans and have been known to have attacked human castles during the Middle Ages. Like the Three Musketeers, they are considered a trio but have a fourth, younger member in the form of {{p|Keldeo}} who the other three rescued and raised after its home was destroyed by fire. All four of them can use their horns like swords, and learn their [[signature move]], {{m|Sacred Sword}}, at level 42 (43 for {{p|Keldeo}}, most likely to refer to it becoming part of the group later).

====Kami trio====
{{main|Kami trio}}
{{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}} are a trio of Pokémon based on Japanese deities: {{wp|Fūjin}}, god of wind, {{wp|Raijin}}, god of thunder and lightning, and {{wp|Inari Ōkami|Inari}}, a fertility god. Together the three represent the heavens and the nourishing effect the sky has upon the earth.

====Tao trio====
{{main|Tao trio}}
[[File:Tao trio anime.png|thumb|right|280px|{{p|Reshiram}}, {{p|Kyurem}} and {{p|Zekrom}}]]
{{p|Zekrom}} and {{p|Reshiram}} represent balance through the aspects of {{wp|Tao|Yin and Yang}}, respectively. Originally, they were a single dragon that helped found the Unova region's nation, but fighting between the two brothers who founded the nation split them into two halves. Despite this, the two Pokémon do not willingly fight each other.

Reshiram and Zekrom are the stars of ''[[M14|Pokémon The Movie: White—Victini and Zekrom and Pokémon The Movie: Black—Victini and Reshiram ]]'' along with Victini.

{{p|Kyurem}} is related to Zekrom and Reshiram. Kyurem represents {{wp|Wuji (philosophy)|wuji}}, which is the absence of Yin and Yang.

Kyurem is the star of ''[[M15|Pokémon The Movie: Kyurem VS the Sacred Swordsman: Keldeo]]'' along with Keldeo.

====Meloetta====
[[File:648Meloetta P BW anime.png|thumb|left|100px|{{p|Meloetta}}, in Pirouette form.]]
{{p|Meloetta}} represents music and dance. Legend says that it once sang and danced joyfully. However, when sorrow darkened the world, it lost the melody and its red shoes. {{m|Relic Song}} changes its form.

Meloetta will make its anime debut in the [[BW082]].

====Genesect====
{{p|Genesect}} is an experimental creature created by Team Plasma, under [[N]], attempting to create the strongest Pokémon in existence by altering an ancient insect Pokémon with cybernetic upgrades. It uses special [[Drives]] to make variations to its signature move, {{m|Techno Blast}}.

==Trivia==
* Though {{p|Unown}} is not considered to be a legendary Pokémon, in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown]]'', {{p|Unown}} are shown in [[Molly Hale]]'s ''Book of Legendary Pokémon'', their power appears to match that of legendary Pokémon and they are explicitly referred to as legendary Pokémon.
* Generation I is the only generation (excluding Generation V) where all of its legendaries have appeared in a movie. Mewtwo appeared in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. Mew appeared in both ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'' and in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', while the birds appeared in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.
** Ho-Oh is the only Generation II legendary who hasn't appeared in a movie, only appearing in anime appearances, opening sequences, and in a cameo in ''Lucario and the Mystery of Mew'', only to be Mew in disguise.
** Groudon is the only Generation III legendary who hasn't appeared in a movie, only appearing in the opening sequences of ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' and ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''. There was a fake Groudon in ''Jirachi: Wish Maker''. However, the real Groudon has appeared with its counterpart, Kyogre, in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''.
** Generation IV is the generation with the greatest amount of legendaries that haven't appeared in a movie: the [[lake guardians]] and {{p|Cresselia}}. This group is notable for not even appearing via cameos in the movies, except for Cresselia, who appeared in the opening of ''[[M10|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. All four have their own debut episodes in the anime, however.
* In all but one of the games, there appears to only be one of each legendary Pokémon, but in the {{pkmn|anime}}, there is more than one of most legendary Pokémon. This may just mean that the creators of the game intended the {{player}} to only ever happen to meet one of them canonically, and in fact there are others elsewhere which the player does not encounter.
** This may be supported by the possibility of acquiring Eggs of {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Giratina}} in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, and {{p|Manaphy}} in the [[Generation IV]] games.
* Each generation has introduced at least one {{type2|Psychic}} legendary Pokémon and one {{type2|Flying}} legendary Pokémon, though the {{p|Shaymin|only}} {{p|Arceus|two}} Flying-type legendaries in Generation IV gain this type only in an {{DL|Form differences|Shaymin|alternate}} {{DL|Form differences|Arceus|form}}.
* According to interviews with [[Junichi Masuda]] in 2009, legendary Pokémon are the most difficult to design names for because Game Freak strives to make sure that the names of legendary Pokémon are universal across the different translations, so extra work must be put into their names to make sure that they work universally in all languages and don't conflict with anything else. This is consistent with the relatively small number of legendary Pokémon who have had their names changed outside of Japan (currently nine: the [[legendary birds]], the [[lake guardians]], and the [[Kami trio]]).
* As of [[Generation V]], aside from {{p|Arceus}}'s use of [[Plates]], there has never been a {{type|Poison}} legendary Pokémon.
* Only {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Giratina}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Lugia}}, and {{p|Ho-Oh}} have a battle theme that is shared with no other. {{p|Mew}} has its own battle theme; however, it is a remixed version of the normal [[Kanto]] wild battle theme.
** Each member of the [[legendary beasts]] and the [[Tao trio]] has its own remix of each trio's designated battle theme:
*** In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Suicune's theme uses bells, Entei's theme uses an electric guitar, and Raikou's theme is synthesized.
*** Reshiram's theme employs a burning fire effect, Zekrom's theme employs a crackling thunder effect, and Kyurem's theme features an extra slapped bass part playing in the background.
* The legendary birds of Kanto are the most available wild legendary Pokémon, able to be caught in nine main series games each ({{2v2|Red|Green}}, {{v|Blue}}, {{v|Yellow}}, {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, {{v2|Platinum}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}). The least available wild legendary Pokémon are {{p|Celebi}} and {{p|Mew}}, which only appear in the wild in one game apiece; each encounter requires an [[event item]] to activate it. {{p|Shaymin}} and {{p|Darkrai}} may also count, as the event items for the two, though existent in the games' coding, were not released to players of {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, with the Mystery Gift events only available for players of {{v2|Platinum}}.

Hayley's trades

2012-03-30T23:05:13Z

Evetype: /* Normal Pokémon */

Whenever the player brings in one of the '''"Wanted Pokémon"''' in the game [[My Pokémon Ranch]], Hayley will offer to trade one of her Pokémon for it, and the Pokémon received will be one of the following twenty which know a [[TM]] move, [[egg move]], or have something else that makes them unique. Although Hayley can bring almost any type of Pokémon to the ranch on any given day, only the Pokémon listed here will be offered.

All of these Pokémon will have the [[Original Trainer|OT]] ''[[Hayley]]'' (English), ''ユカリ'' (Japanese), ''EULALIE'' (French), ''EUKALIA'' (Germany), ''GIULIA'' (Italian), ''EULALIA'' (Spanish) and the [[Trainer ID number]] 01000.

Note that all of the Pokémon with specific natures cannot have a different nature, gender, and ability and they cannot be {{Shiny}}. The name of the Pokémon is its name in the game's language, meaning that a German {{p|Eevee}} would have the OT of ''EUKALIA'' and the name ''EVOLI''.

==Normal Pokémon==
Hayley will only trade if she has already brought one of the above Pokémon into the ranch. To get one of those Pokémon, repeatedly answer no when she asks "Is a ______ Pokémon okay?" when she asks about the Pokémon she should bring the next day. Eventually she will say she'll bring a Pokémon that she's interested in, and it will be one of these Pokemon below.

==Special Pokémon==
These two Pokémon are only available once certain requirements are filled.

Once 250 Pokémon are present on the ranch, it will expand and jump to a new level. When this level is obtained, Hayley will add a new Pokémon to the "Wanted" board, {{p|Leafeon}}. When Leafeon is brought to the ranch, she will offer to trade her Phione for it.

When 999 Pokémon are present, the ranch will expand and jump to level 25, the maximum level. Once this level is obtained, a new wanted Pokémon will be added. Hayley is now asking for any Pokémon {{pkmn|egg}}. When the egg is brought, she will offer to trade her Mew for it.

Hayley's trades

2012-03-30T23:04:41Z

Evetype: /* Normal Pokémon */

Whenever the player brings in one of the '''"Wanted Pokémon"''' in the game [[My Pokémon Ranch]], Hayley will offer to trade one of her Pokémon for it, and the Pokémon received will be one of the following twenty which know a [[TM]] move, [[egg move]], or have something else that makes them unique. Although Hayley can bring almost any type of Pokémon to the ranch on any given day, only the Pokémon listed here will be offered.

All of these Pokémon will have the [[Original Trainer|OT]] ''[[Hayley]]'' (English), ''ユカリ'' (Japanese), ''EULALIE'' (French), ''EUKALIA'' (Germany), ''GIULIA'' (Italian), ''EULALIA'' (Spanish) and the [[Trainer ID number]] 01000.

Note that all of the Pokémon with specific natures cannot have a different nature, gender, and ability and they cannot be {{Shiny}}. The name of the Pokémon is its name in the game's language, meaning that a German {{p|Eevee}} would have the OT of ''EUKALIA'' and the name ''EVOLI''.

==Normal Pokémon==
Hayley will only trade if she has already brought one of the above Pokémon into the ranch. To get one of those Pokémon, repeatedly answer no when she asks "Is a ______ Pokémon okay?" when she asks about the Pokémon she should bring the next day. Eventually she will say she'll bring a Pokémon that she's interested in, and it will be one of the Pokemon below.

'''Snorlax''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カビゴン''' ''Kabigon'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Munchlax}} via {{DL|Happiness|Evolutions|Happiness}}.

In the [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games and their remakes, wild Snorlax can be found sleeping in inconvenient locations throughout [[Kanto]]. In order to catch one, a Trainer must first awaken it with music from either a [[Poké Flute]] or [[Pokégear]] set to the Poké Flute channel.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Snorlax's body is composed of mostly its belly, where most of its fat reserves accumulate. It wakes up only to eat and seldom exercises. Its head is also large, and it has two pointed teeth protruding from its mouth. Its feet, with three claws and a circular brown paw pad, are extremely large compared to most Pokémon, assisting its balance when it chooses to stand. Its arms and foreclaws are short, but are long enough for Snorlax to grab its food and eat it, and strong enough to deliver powerful blows. It is usually dark blue or green in color.
====Gender differences====
None, although most Snorlax are male.

===Special abilities===
When trained and exercised properly, Snorlax can gain supreme strength and ability. They can throw incredibly powerful punches and cause immense {{m|earthquake}}s.

===Behavior===
Snorlax spend the majority of their time sleeping, surviving on their stored fat. Many Snorlax only awaken once a month, spending their waking time finding more food. A hungry Snorlax isn't satisfied until it consumes 900 pounds of food, and then it goes back to sleep. If one ever sees a sleeping Snorlax, he or she should not wake it up, because these Pokémon become very grumpy if their peaceful dreams become interrupted. Several {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon using {{m|Dream Eater}} find this out the hard way. Aside from this, they are very docile and even allow children to bounce on their big bellies.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Snorlax are often in mountains and forests. However, they sometimes wander into towns and streets and sleep there. They have been documented in [[Kanto]], and evidence suggests that they could be found in [[Sinnoh]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Snorlax are not picky, and will eat anything and everything that is edible. They are fond of large, thorny vines or their diet may compose of bananas found in grasslands. Snorlax only wake up to eat. They need to eat about 900lbs (90% of their bodyweight) to be satisfied before falling back to sleep. Some Snorlax sleep for a month at a time, so 900lbs of food is enough to sustain them for at least one month whilst asleep.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Ash Snorlax.png|thumb|250px|[[Ash's Snorlax]] in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Snorlax]]====
In ''[[EP094|Snack Attack!]]'', a Snorlax was eating the grapefuits of the [[Seven Grapefruit Islands|Grapefruit Islands]]. {{Ash}} managed to capture it near the end of the episode. After the adventures in the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]], [[Ash's Snorlax]] spent most of its time at {{an|Professor Oak}}'s lab.

====Other====
Snorlax first appeared in ''[[EP041|Wake Up Snorlax!]]''. This Snorlax was blocking the water flow to a small village.

In ''[[AG088|The Garden of Eatin']]'', another Snorlax was causing trouble for a man named [[Marcel]] by eating the bananas in his {{p|Slakoth}} Banana Garden. Marcel's newly evolved {{p|Vigoroth}} defeated the Snorlax, allowing him to capture it. Afterwards, Marcel made an attraction around his new Snorlax: a relaxation room.

A Snorlax belonging to {{an|Daniel}} takes part in the [[Pokéathlon]] in ''[[DP160|A Marathon Rivalry!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
A Snorlax doll is seen in Ash's room in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''.

''[[SS012|Training Daze]]'' featured a {{pkmn2|shiny|red}} Snorlax which [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, while competing with [[Butch]], [[Cassidy]], and {{TR|Raticate}}, were sent to steal in order to become official Team Rocket field agents. The Snorlax turned out to be [[Viper]], the Team Rocket Academy Drill Sergeant in disguise.

In ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action]]'', a Snorlax was a sheriff in a western-themed Pokémon movie.

A Snorlax also appeared near the end of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', evolving from {{p|Munchlax}} in order to stay afloat during a 'flood' of malfunctioning robots.

In ''[[AG158|Queen of the Serpentine]]'', a Snorlax made a cameo as one of {{FB|Pike Queen|Lucy}}'s pets.

[[Roman]], who appeared in ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]'', owns a Snorlax.

A Snorlax also appeared in the Pikachu short ''[[PK07|Pikachu and Pichu]]''.

A Snorlax appeared in ''[[DP141|Challenging a Towering Figure!]]''.

A Snorlax blocked the path to the cave in ''[[EP167|A Hot Water Battle]]''

==In the manga==
{{adv|Red}} caught a Snorlax on [[Kanto Route 17|Cycling Road]], awakening it by exploiting its gluttonous nature with the {{p|Beedrill}} honey left on [[Saur]]'s head. Afterwards, it became one of Red's favorite fighters, allowing him to stop {{adv|Green}} after she stole his money (only to discover later that she then seized his badges during the ensuing fight), and overcome dozens of challenges along his journey with few defeats, being able to force {{adv|Blue}} to recall his {{p|Machamp}}, and even stop a full-speed train in its tracks much later on in the {{chap|Gold, Silver, & Crystal}}. In addition, to date, it is his highest-level party Pokémon at level 89.

==In the TCG==

==Other appearances==
[[Image:SSBB Snorlax.png|right|thumb|Snorlax in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]

===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
When released from a Poké Ball, Snorlax will ascend into the air before descending over a large area of the screen with a {{m|Body Slam}} that sends any opponent underneath flying.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Snorlax does the same maneuver as it did in the previous game, but covers a smaller area.

Snorlax is also a [[Poké Floats|Poké Float]]. It is lying down asleep and so fighting occurs on its head and belly.
====Trophy information====
Snorlax love to sleep and love to eat: these portly Pokémon get grumpy if they don't get 888 pounds of food per day. After snacking out, they always nap. They have cast-iron stomachs and can eat moldy and even rotten food with no digestion problems. They are the heaviest Pokémon on record, weighing in at over 1,000 pounds.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Snorlax once again performs the same maneuver as the previous games.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}: Snorlax will be seen sleeping throughout the game, effectively cutting off certain areas until later on. It will eventually remain in a cave in the [[Sekra Mountain Range]]. Once the rest of the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Ranger Browser]] has been completed, it will wake up and can be captured.

==Trivia==
* Until [[Generation III]], Snorlax was the heaviest Pokémon. It was later out-massed by both {{p|Metagross}} and {{p|Groudon}}. In [[Generation IV]], {{p|Dialga}} and both forms of {{p|Giratina}} are heavier than it as well, setting it back to its present state of the sixth-heaviest Pokémon known.
** It is, however, the heaviest Pokémon that has a gender.
* Snorlax could learn or know the move {{m|Headbutt}} from [[Generation I]] to [[Generation III]], but cannot naturally learn it as of [[Generation IV]]. However, it can learn it as a move tutor move in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
** Similarly, Snorlax is able to learn {{m|Harden}} in [[Generation I]] games, but is unable in further generations.
* Unusually, in the [[Pokémon Stadium series]] (and later 3D games), Snorlax open their eyes when they faint.
* In [[Pokémon Snap]], when using the [[Poké Flute]], it stands up and dances to the music.
* At 110, Snorlax and {{p|Dodrio}} have the highest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all [[Generation I]] Normal-types.
* Snorlax is the heaviest Pokémon that can legally hatch from an egg.
** Both {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Giratina}} can be obtained just after hatching in [[Generation IV]], by taking an {{p|Arceus}} to the [[Ruins of Alph]]. However the egg cannot be in the player's party.
* In [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} to {{gen|III}}, Snorlax could learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} by [[Level|leveling up]]. However, in [[Generation IV]], possibly due to the Physical/Special split, Snorlax can no longer learn it by leveling up and instead can learn {{m|Giga Impact}}, Hyper Beam's physical variant, possibly referencing its large body mass.
*{{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} are the only games in which Snorlax is in the regional Pokédex and is not encountered as an obstacle that is blocking a route.
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, if the player is at [[Mt. Silver]] while the [[Walking Pokémon]] is Snorlax, and interacts with it, a unique message will come up saying "SNORLAX is feeling very eager", based on the fact that {{ga|Red}}, who is also at Mt. Silver, owns a Snorlax as well. While on Mt. Silver, unique messages will also apply if the player's walking Pokémon is a {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Charizard}}.
*Snorlax is the first and only [[Generation I]] Pokémon to be characterized as having a Black [[List of Pokémon by color|Pokédex color]].

===Origin===
Snorlax may be loosely based on {{wp|hibernation|hibernating}} {{wp|bear}}s or {{wp|teddy bear}}s. It may also be based on the large, cave dwelling bears, {{wp|Ursus spelaeus}}. It may also be based on a food coma, as it eats and eats and eats, then gets tired and sleeps (symptoms of a food coma)

====Name origin====
Snorlax's name is a combination of ''snore'' and ''lax''. The ''lax'' in its name might also come from relax. Its Japanese name may come from an alternate reading of sleep, 寐 ''bi'', and a corruption of 鼾酔 ''kansui'', snoring, or 憩う ''ikou'', rest. It may also incorporate mold, 黴 ''kabi'', noting the fact that Snorlax will eat anything, even moldy food. 잠만보 is derived from "Sleepy-head".

'''Mew''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウ''' ''Mew'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to 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|Sword of Mystery}}).

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

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mew is normally described as a pink 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. Mew has big hind legs, like a {{wp|rabbit}}, and short arms with three-fingered paws. Mew has triangle-shaped 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 is a genderless species.

====Special abilities====
Mew's main abilities include turning invisible at will (similar to {{p|Rotom}}), creating force-fields of psychic energy and being able to {{m|transform}} into any one of the other 648 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 {{m|Dive|underwater}} as well.

===Behavior===
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|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===
[[File:Rare.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]
Reports found in the Burned Mansion found in [[Cinnabar Island]] in the [[Kanto]] region speak of expeditions of scientists, either independent or Team Rocket-funded which had sighted Mew in {{wp|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 inhabit other areas of the universe, and whether it originates from [[Pokémon world|Earth]] at all is debatable.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Considering Mew's unique lifestyle as a floating Psychic Pokémon, and that no terrestrial animal resembles it, there is no known diet for Mew. However, it can be found with the [[Lum Berry]], which might offer a clue as to what it eats.

==In the anime==
{{spoiler}}
[[File:MewInBubble.png|thumb|right|In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'']]
===Major appearances===
====[[Mew (movie 1)|Mew (Mewtwo Strikes Back)]]====
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.

Mew makes a small appearance in the hour-length special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', the sequel to ''Mewtwo Strikes Back''. Mewtwo sees it after being thrown into the Purity Spring.

====[[Mew (movie 8)|Mew (Lucario and the Mystery of Mew)]]====
[[File:Mew.png|right|thumb|In ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'']]
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|the others}} 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|8}} 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}}.

====Other====
A {{pkmn2|mirage}} Mew appears in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', and helps to interfere with the plans of [[Dr. Yung|Mirage Master]].

===Minor appearances===
[[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 [[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==
[[File:Mew Adventures.png|right|thumb|Mew as it appears in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Mew debuted in its own round in 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 the {{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 the [[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 TCG==
{{main|Mew (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[File:SSBB Mew.png|right|thumb|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.

===[[Pokémon Snap]]===
Mew appears in the seventh course, [[Rainbow Cloud]]. Although the game is not combat-oriented, the difficulty of photographing Mew effectively make 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===
* [[Pokémon 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 PokéPark. It 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 it plays.

==Trivia==
* Though it comes after Mewtwo in the Pokédex, it has to have been found before Mewtwo, due to the fact that Mewtwo is Mew's clone.
* Mew was the only Pokémon of the first 151 to be left out of the original version of the [[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 the games, lost scientific reports state that Mew was found in the forests of Guyana.
* 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}}.
* Mew is the only genderless Pokémon able to learn {{m|Captivate}}, and the only genderlesss Pokémon besides {{p|Furiijio}} to learn {{m|Attract}}; however, when used by genderless Pokémon, these moves will always fail.
* Mew's English name, only three letters long, is the shortest of all Pokémon. It shares this distinction with {{p|Muk}}.
* 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}}.
** Coincidentally, the three of them all have base 100 stats.
* If Mew were considered an embodiment of 'earth', it and the other 'fairy legendary Pokémon' would represent the Chinese Wu Xing, fire (Victini), water (Manaphy), earth (Mew), wood (Celebi), and metal (Jirachi).
* 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. These are the total numbers of Pokémon in [[Generation I]], [[Generation II]], and [[Generation IV]], respectively.
[[File:Wildmew.jpg|thumb|right|A wild Mew found using the [[Mew glitch]]]]
* Although Mew is considered the ancestor of all Pokémon, {{p|Arceus}} is said to be the first of all Pokémon.
* Mew's species name, "New Species", is rather ironic, as it is in fact one of the first ever Pokémon to have existed.
** In the games it is also unable to breed, despite being the ancestor of all Pokémon.
* In many of the games, Mew is depicted as pink. However, in the movies and some of the spin off games, Mew is a much lighter color.
* Mew shares the move {{m|Transform}} with {{p|Ditto}}, along with also sharing the same color, both {{Shiny}} and not, as well as having the same weight.
* In an interview with Game Freak and Creatures, Inc. in Nintendo Power issue 134, Tsunekazu Ishihara revealed that he created Mew two weeks before game development was finished.
* For the most recent release of Mew as an event for {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, for the US it was released ten years to the day for the anniversary for the original release of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.
* Mew's tail in the back sprites of {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} grew in length from the {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} back sprites.
* Mew is the only Pokémon capable of having the ability {{a|Synchronize}} that does not have a hidden ability.
* Mew is the mascot of the fansite {{OBP|Legendary Pokémon|site}}.
* Mew is the only Pokémon able to learn {{m|Sky Drop}} without getting STAB from it.
* In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]], Mew is referred to as a male, despite being a genderless Pokémon.

===Trademark===
* 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.
** ミュウ was registered on August 6, 1999, registration number 4302090.
* 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.
** ミュウ was submitted on June 17, 1997, application number 平9-128909.

===Origin===
{{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 felines.

====Name origin====
Mew's name may refer to its {{wp|cat}}-like appearance, with ''mew'' being the sound a kitten makes, the Japanese word ''unique'' (myō), or the English word ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (myūtanto).

'''Mew''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウ''' ''Mew'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to 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|Sword of Mystery}}).

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

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mew is normally described as a pink 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. Mew has big hind legs, like a {{wp|rabbit}}, and short arms with three-fingered paws. Mew has triangle-shaped 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 is a genderless species.

====Special abilities====
Mew's main abilities include turning invisible at will (similar to {{p|Rotom}}), creating force-fields of psychic energy and being able to {{m|transform}} into any one of the other 648 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 {{m|Dive|underwater}} as well.

===Behavior===
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|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===
[[File:Rare.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]
Reports found in the Burned Mansion found in [[Cinnabar Island]] in the [[Kanto]] region speak of expeditions of scientists, either independent or Team Rocket-funded which had sighted Mew in {{wp|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 inhabit other areas of the universe, and whether it originates from [[Pokémon world|Earth]] at all is debatable.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Considering Mew's unique lifestyle as a floating Psychic Pokémon, and that no terrestrial animal resembles it, there is no known diet for Mew. However, it can be found with the [[Lum Berry]], which might offer a clue as to what it eats.

==In the anime==
{{spoiler}}
[[File:MewInBubble.png|thumb|right|In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'']]
===Major appearances===
====[[Mew (movie 1)|Mew (Mewtwo Strikes Back)]]====
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.

Mew makes a small appearance in the hour-length special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', the sequel to ''Mewtwo Strikes Back''. Mewtwo sees it after being thrown into the Purity Spring.

====[[Mew (movie 8)|Mew (Lucario and the Mystery of Mew)]]====
[[File:Mew.png|right|thumb|In ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'']]
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|the others}} 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|8}} 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}}.

====Other====
A {{pkmn2|mirage}} Mew appears in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', and helps to interfere with the plans of [[Dr. Yung|Mirage Master]].

===Minor appearances===
[[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 [[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==
[[File:Mew Adventures.png|right|thumb|Mew as it appears in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Mew debuted in its own round in 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 the {{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 {{adv|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 the [[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 TCG==
{{main|Mew (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[File:SSBB Mew.png|right|thumb|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.

===[[Pokémon Snap]]===
Mew appears in the seventh course, [[Rainbow Cloud]]. Although the game is not combat-oriented, the difficulty of photographing Mew effectively make 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===
* [[Pokémon 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 PokéPark. It 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 it plays.

==Trivia==
* Though it comes after Mewtwo in the Pokédex, it has to have been found before Mewtwo, due to the fact that Mewtwo is a clone of it.
* Mew was the only Pokémon of the first 151 to be left out of the original version of the [[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 the games, lost scientific reports state that Mew was found in the forests of Guyana.
* 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}}.
* Mew is the only genderless Pokémon able to learn {{m|Captivate}}, and the only genderlesss Pokémon besides {{p|Furiijio}} to learn {{m|Attract}}; however, when used by genderless Pokémon, these moves will always fail.
* Mew's English name, only three letters long, is the shortest of all Pokémon. It shares this distinction with {{p|Muk}}.
* 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}}.
** Coincidentally, the three of them all have base 100 stats.
* If Mew were considered an embodiment of 'earth', it and the other 'fairy legendary Pokémon' would represent the Chinese Wu Xing, fire (Victini), water (Manaphy), earth (Mew), wood (Celebi), and metal (Jirachi).
* 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. These are the total numbers of Pokémon in [[Generation I]], [[Generation II]], and [[Generation IV]], respectively.
[[File:Wildmew.jpg|thumb|right|A wild Mew found using the [[Mew glitch]]]]
* Although Mew is considered the ancestor of all Pokémon, {{p|Arceus}} is said to be the first of all Pokémon.
* Mew's species name, "New Species", is rather ironic, as it is in fact one of the first ever Pokémon to have existed.
** In the games it is also unable to breed, despite being the ancestor of all Pokémon.
* In many of the games, Mew is depicted as pink. However, in the movies and some of the spin off games, Mew is a much lighter color.
* Mew shares the move {{m|Transform}} with {{p|Ditto}}, along with also sharing the same color, both {{Shiny}} and not, as well as having the same weight.
* In an interview with Game Freak and Creatures, Inc. in Nintendo Power issue 134, Tsunekazu Ishihara revealed that he created Mew two weeks before game development was finished.
* For the most recent release of Mew as an event for {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, for the US it was released ten years to the day for the anniversary for the original release of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.
* Mew's tail in the back sprites of {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} grew in length from the {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} back sprites.
* Mew is the only Pokémon capable of having the ability {{a|Synchronize}} that does not have a hidden ability.
* Mew is the mascot of the fansite {{OBP|Legendary Pokémon|site}}.
* Mew is the only Pokémon able to learn {{m|Sky Drop}} without getting STAB from it.
* In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]], Mew is referred to as a male, despite being a genderless Pokémon.

===Trademark===
* 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.
** ミュウ was registered on August 6, 1999, registration number 4302090.
* 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.
** ミュウ was submitted on June 17, 1997, application number 平9-128909.

===Origin===
{{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 felines.

====Name origin====
Mew's name may refer to its {{wp|cat}}-like appearance, with ''mew'' being the sound a kitten makes, the Japanese word ''unique'' (myō), or the English word ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (myūtanto).

==In other languages==

'''Mew''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウ''' ''Mew'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to 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|Sword of Mystery}}).

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

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mew is normally described as a pink 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. Mew has big hind legs, like a {{wp|rabbit}}, and short arms with three-fingered paws. Mew has triangle-shaped 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 is a genderless species.

====Special abilities====
Mew's main abilities include turning invisible at will (similar to {{p|Rotom}}), creating force-fields of psychic energy and being able to {{m|transform}} into any one of the other 648 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 {{m|Dive|underwater}} as well.

===Behavior===
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|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, [[Mewtwo]].

===Habitat===
[[File:Rare.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]
Reports found in the Burned Mansion found in [[Cinnabar Island]] in the [[Kanto]] region speak of expeditions of scientists, either independent or Team Rocket-funded which had sighted Mew in {{wp|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 inhabit other areas of the universe, and whether it originates from [[Pokémon world|Earth]] at all is debatable.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Considering Mew's unique lifestyle as a floating Psychic Pokémon, and that no terrestrial animal resembles it, there is no known diet for Mew. However, it can be found with the [[Lum Berry]], which might offer a clue as to what it eats.

==In the anime==
{{spoiler}}
[[File:MewInBubble.png|thumb|right|In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'']]
===Major appearances===
====[[Mew (movie 1)|Mew (Mewtwo Strikes Back)]]====
In this movie, Mew made a couple of cameo appearances at the start of the movie. A 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.

Mew makes a small appearance in the hour-length special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', the sequel to ''Mewtwo Strikes Back''. Mewtwo sees it after being thrown into the Purity Spring.

====[[Mew (movie 8)|Mew (Lucario and the Mystery of Mew)]]====
[[File:Mew.png|right|thumb|In ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'']]
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|the others}} 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|8}} 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}}.

====Other====
A {{pkmn2|mirage}} Mew appears in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', and helps to interfere with the plans of [[Dr. Yung|Mirage Master]].

===Minor appearances===
[[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 [[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==
[[File:Mew Adventures.png|right|thumb|Mew as it appears in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Mew debuted in its own round in 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 the {{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 {{adv|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 the [[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 TCG==
{{main|Mew (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[File:SSBB Mew.png|right|thumb|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.

===[[Pokémon Snap]]===
Mew appears in the seventh course, [[Rainbow Cloud]]. Although the game is not combat-oriented, the difficulty of photographing Mew effectively make 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===
* [[Pokémon 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 PokéPark. It 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 it plays.

==Trivia==
* Though it comes after {{p|Mewtwo}} in the Pokédex, it has to have been found before Mewtwo, due to the fact that Mewtwo is a clone of it.
* Mew was the only Pokémon of the first 151 to be left out of the original version of the [[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 the games, lost scientific reports state that Mew was found in the forests of Guyana.
* 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}}.
* Mew is the only genderless Pokémon able to learn {{m|Captivate}}, and the only genderlesss Pokémon besides {{p|Furiijio}} to learn {{m|Attract}}; however, when used by genderless Pokémon, these moves will always fail.
* Mew's English name, only three letters long, is the shortest of all Pokémon. It shares this distinction with {{p|Muk}}.
* 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}}.
** Coincidentally, the three of them all have base 100 stats.
* If Mew were considered an embodiment of 'earth', it and the other 'fairy legendary Pokémon' would represent the Chinese Wu Xing, fire (Victini), water (Manaphy), earth (Mew), wood (Celebi), and metal (Jirachi).
* 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. These are the total numbers of Pokémon in [[Generation I]], [[Generation II]], and [[Generation IV]], respectively.

* Although Mew is considered the ancestor of all Pokémon, {{p|Arceus}} is said to be the first of all Pokémon.
* Mew's species name, "New Species", is rather ironic, as it is in fact one of the first ever Pokémon to have existed.
** In the games it is also unable to breed, despite being the ancestor of all Pokémon.
* In many of the games, Mew is depicted as pink. However, in the movies and some of the spin off games, Mew is a much lighter color.
* Mew shares the move {{m|Transform}} with {{p|Ditto}}, along with also sharing the same color, both {{Shiny}} and not, as well as having the same weight.
* In an interview with Game Freak and Creatures, Inc. in Nintendo Power issue 134, Tsunekazu Ishihara revealed that he created Mew two weeks before game development was finished.
* For the most recent release of Mew as an event for {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, for the US it was released ten years to the day for the anniversary for the original release of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.
* Mew's tail in the back sprites of {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} grew in length from the {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} back sprites.
* Mew is the only Pokémon capable of having the ability {{a|Synchronize}} that does not have a hidden ability.
* Mew is the mascot of the fansite {{OBP|Legendary Pokémon|site}}.
* Mew is the only Pokémon able to learn {{m|Sky Drop}} without getting STAB from it.
* In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]], Mew is referred to as a male, despite being a genderless Pokémon.

===Trademark===
* 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.
** ミュウ was registered on August 6, 1999, registration number 4302090.
* 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.
** ミュウ was submitted on June 17, 1997, application number 平9-128909.

===Origin===
{{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 felines.

====Name origin====
Mew's name may refer to its {{wp|cat}}-like appearance, with ''mew'' being the sound a kitten makes, the Japanese word ''unique'' (myō), or the English word ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (myūtanto).

'''Mew''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウ''' ''Mew'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to 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|Sword of Mystery}}).

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

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mew is normally described as a pink 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. Mew has big hind legs, like a {{wp|rabbit}}, and short arms with three-fingered paws. Mew has triangle-shaped 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 is a genderless species.

====Special abilities====
Mew's main abilities include turning invisible at will (similar to {{p|Rotom}}), creating force-fields of psychic energy and being able to {{m|transform}} into any one of the other 648 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 {{m|Dive|underwater}} as well.

===Behavior===
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|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, [[Mewtwo]].

===Habitat===
[[File:Rare.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]
Reports found in the Burned Mansion found in [[Cinnabar Island]] in the [[Kanto]] region speak of expeditions of scientists, either independent or Team Rocket-funded which had sighted Mew in {{wp|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 inhabit other areas of the universe, and whether it originates from [[Pokémon world|Earth]] at all is debatable.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Considering Mew's unique lifestyle as a floating Psychic Pokémon, and that no terrestrial animal resembles it, there is no known diet for Mew. However, it can be found with the [[Lum Berry]], which might offer a clue as to what it eats.

==In the anime==
{{spoiler}}
[[File:MewInBubble.png|thumb|right|In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'']]
===Major appearances===
====[[Mew (movie 1)|Mew (Mewtwo Strikes Back)]]====
In this movie, Mew made a couple of cameo appearances at the start of the movie. A 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.

Mew makes a small appearance in the hour-length special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', the sequel to ''Mewtwo Strikes Back''. Mewtwo sees it after being thrown into the Purity Spring.

====[[Mew (movie 8)|Mew (Lucario and the Mystery of Mew)]]====
[[File:Mew.png|right|thumb|In ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'']]
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|the others}} 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|8}} 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}}.

====Other====
A {{pkmn2|mirage}} Mew appears in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', and helps to interfere with the plans of [[Dr. Yung|Mirage Master]].

===Minor appearances===
[[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 [[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==
[[File:Mew Adventures.png|right|thumb|Mew as it appears in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Mew debuted in its own round in 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 the {{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 the [[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 TCG==
{{main|Mew (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[File:SSBB Mew.png|right|thumb|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.

===[[Pokémon Snap]]===
Mew appears in the seventh course, [[Rainbow Cloud]]. Although the game is not combat-oriented, the difficulty of photographing Mew effectively make 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===
* [[Pokémon 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 PokéPark. It 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 it plays.

==Trivia==
* Though it comes after {{p|Mewtwo}} in the Pokédex, it has to have been found before Mewtwo, due to the fact that Mewtwo is a clone of it.
* Mew was the only Pokémon of the first 151 to be left out of the original version of the [[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 the games, lost scientific reports state that Mew was found in the forests of Guyana.
* 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}}.
* Mew is the only genderless Pokémon able to learn {{m|Captivate}}, and the only genderlesss Pokémon besides {{p|Furiijio}} to learn {{m|Attract}}; however, when used by genderless Pokémon, these moves will always fail.
* Mew's English name, only three letters long, is the shortest of all Pokémon. It shares this distinction with {{p|Muk}}.
* 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}}.
** Coincidentally, the three of them all have base 100 stats.
* If Mew were considered an embodiment of 'earth', it and the other 'fairy legendary Pokémon' would represent the Chinese Wu Xing, fire (Victini), water (Manaphy), earth (Mew), wood (Celebi), and metal (Jirachi).
* 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. These are the total numbers of Pokémon in [[Generation I]], [[Generation II]], and [[Generation IV]], respectively.
[[File:Wildmew.jpg|thumb|right|A wild Mew found using the [[Mew glitch]]]]
* Although Mew is considered the ancestor of all Pokémon, {{p|Arceus}} is said to be the first of all Pokémon.
* Mew's species name, "New Species", is rather ironic, as it is in fact one of the first ever Pokémon to have existed.
** In the games it is also unable to breed, despite being the ancestor of all Pokémon.
* In many of the games, Mew is depicted as pink. However, in the movies and some of the spin off games, Mew is a much lighter color.
* Mew shares the move {{m|Transform}} with {{p|Ditto}}, along with also sharing the same color, both {{Shiny}} and not, as well as having the same weight.
* In an interview with Game Freak and Creatures, Inc. in Nintendo Power issue 134, Tsunekazu Ishihara revealed that he created Mew two weeks before game development was finished.
* For the most recent release of Mew as an event for {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, for the US it was released ten years to the day for the anniversary for the original release of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.
* Mew's tail in the back sprites of {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} grew in length from the {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} back sprites.
* Mew is the only Pokémon capable of having the ability {{a|Synchronize}} that does not have a hidden ability.
* Mew is the mascot of the fansite {{OBP|Legendary Pokémon|site}}.
* Mew is the only Pokémon able to learn {{m|Sky Drop}} without getting STAB from it.
* In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]], Mew is referred to as a male, despite being a genderless Pokémon.

===Trademark===
* 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.
** ミュウ was registered on August 6, 1999, registration number 4302090.
* 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.
** ミュウ was submitted on June 17, 1997, application number 平9-128909.

===Origin===
{{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 felines.

====Name origin====
Mew's name may refer to its {{wp|cat}}-like appearance, with ''mew'' being the sound a kitten makes, the Japanese word ''unique'' (myō), or the English word ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (myūtanto).

'''Mew''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウ''' ''Mew'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to 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|Sword of Mystery}}).

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

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mew is normally described as a pink 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. Mew has big hind legs, like a {{wp|rabbit}}, and short arms with three-fingered paws. Mew has triangle-shaped 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 is a genderless species.

====Special abilities====
Mew's main abilities include turning invisible at will (similar to {{p|Rotom}}), creating force-fields of psychic energy and being able to {{m|transform}} into any one of the other 648 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 {{m|Dive|underwater}} as well.

===Behavior===
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|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, [[Mewtwo]].

===Habitat===
[[File:Rare.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]
Reports found in the Burned Mansion found in [[Cinnabar Island]] in the [[Kanto]] region speak of expeditions of scientists, either independent or Team Rocket-funded which had sighted Mew in {{wp|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 inhabit other areas of the universe, and whether it originates from [[Pokémon world|Earth]] at all is debatable.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Considering Mew's unique lifestyle as a floating Psychic Pokémon, and that no terrestrial animal resembles it, there is no known diet for Mew. However, it can be found with the [[Lum Berry]], which might offer a clue as to what it eats.

==In the anime==
{{spoiler}}
[[File:MewInBubble.png|thumb|right|In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'']]
===Major appearances===
====[[Mew (movie 1)|Mew (Mewtwo Strikes Back)]]====
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.

Mew makes a small appearance in the hour-length special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', the sequel to ''Mewtwo Strikes Back''. Mewtwo sees it after being thrown into the Purity Spring.

====[[Mew (movie 8)|Mew (Lucario and the Mystery of Mew)]]====
[[File:Mew.png|right|thumb|In ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'']]
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|the others}} 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|8}} 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}}.

====Other====
A {{pkmn2|mirage}} Mew appears in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', and helps to interfere with the plans of [[Dr. Yung|Mirage Master]].

===Minor appearances===
[[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 [[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==
[[File:Mew Adventures.png|right|thumb|Mew as it appears in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Mew debuted in its own round in 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 the {{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 the [[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 TCG==
{{main|Mew (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[File:SSBB Mew.png|right|thumb|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.

===[[Pokémon Snap]]===
Mew appears in the seventh course, [[Rainbow Cloud]]. Although the game is not combat-oriented, the difficulty of photographing Mew effectively make 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===
* [[Pokémon 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 PokéPark. It 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 it plays.

==Trivia==
* Though it comes after {{p|Mewtwo}} in the Pokédex, it has to have been found before Mewtwo, due to the fact that Mewtwo is a clone of it.
* Mew was the only Pokémon of the first 151 to be left out of the original version of the [[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 the games, lost scientific reports state that Mew was found in the forests of Guyana.
* 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}}.
* Mew is the only genderless Pokémon able to learn {{m|Captivate}}, and the only genderlesss Pokémon besides {{p|Furiijio}} to learn {{m|Attract}}; however, when used by genderless Pokémon, these moves will always fail.
* Mew's English name, only three letters long, is the shortest of all Pokémon. It shares this distinction with {{p|Muk}}.
* 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}}.
** Coincidentally, the three of them all have base 100 stats.
* If Mew were considered an embodiment of 'earth', it and the other 'fairy legendary Pokémon' would represent the Chinese Wu Xing, fire (Victini), water (Manaphy), earth (Mew), wood (Celebi), and metal (Jirachi).
* 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. These are the total numbers of Pokémon in [[Generation I]], [[Generation II]], and [[Generation IV]], respectively.
[[File:Wildmew.jpg|thumb|right|A wild Mew found using the [[Mew glitch]]]]
* Although Mew is considered the ancestor of all Pokémon, {{p|Arceus}} is said to be the first of all Pokémon.
* Mew's species name, "New Species", is rather ironic, as it is in fact one of the first ever Pokémon to have existed.
** In the games it is also unable to breed, despite being the ancestor of all Pokémon.
* In many of the games, Mew is depicted as pink. However, in the movies and some of the spin off games, Mew is a much lighter color.
* Mew shares the move {{m|Transform}} with {{p|Ditto}}, along with also sharing the same color, both {{Shiny}} and not, as well as having the same weight.
* In an interview with Game Freak and Creatures, Inc. in Nintendo Power issue 134, Tsunekazu Ishihara revealed that he created Mew two weeks before game development was finished.
* For the most recent release of Mew as an event for {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, for the US it was released ten years to the day for the anniversary for the original release of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.
* Mew's tail in the back sprites of {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} grew in length from the {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} back sprites.
* Mew is the only Pokémon capable of having the ability {{a|Synchronize}} that does not have a hidden ability.
* Mew is the mascot of the fansite {{OBP|Legendary Pokémon|site}}.
* Mew is the only Pokémon able to learn {{m|Sky Drop}} without getting STAB from it.
* In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]], Mew is referred to as a male, despite being a genderless Pokémon.

===Trademark===
* 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.
** ミュウ was registered on August 6, 1999, registration number 4302090.
* 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.
** ミュウ was submitted on June 17, 1997, application number 平9-128909.

===Origin===
{{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 felines.

====Name origin====
Mew's name may refer to its {{wp|cat}}-like appearance, with ''mew'' being the sound a kitten makes, the Japanese word ''unique'' (myō), or the English word ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (myūtanto).

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Mew
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Mew
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 뮤 ''Myu''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 夢幻 ''Mèng Huàn'' - Literally means "dream" or "illusion".
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Cantonese]]: 夢夢

The '''Sootopolis Gym''' (Japanese: '''ルネジム''' ''Rune Gym'') is the official [[gym]] of [[Sootopolis City]]. It is based on {{type2|Water}} [[Pokémon]]. The [[Gym Leader]]s are [[Wallace]] and, later, [[Juan]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat them receive the {{Badge|Rain}}.

==In the games==
To reach the Gym Leader, trainers must step on every ice tile to activate the stairways. If any tile is used twice, the player will fall to a lower level, where the Gym Trainers are located. No matter where he or she falls, at least one Trainer must be challenged before the stairs can be returned to.

When defeated, Wallace or Juan will give the player the {{badge|Rain}} as well as [[TM03]] ({{m|Water Pulse}}) as a reward.

==In the anime==
The Sootopolis Gym appeared in two episodes of the {{pkmn|anime}}.

{{Ash}} and {{Ashfr|his friends}} first arrived at the gym in ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate]]''. They met up with Juan, who was putting on a water show with all the Pokémon in his gym.

After challenging Juan, Ash learned that the battle would be divided up into two parts. The first part was a [[double battle]]. Once both of Juan's Pokémon fainted, the battle would switch into one-on-one battles. Ash defeated Juan in ''[[AG111|Eight Ain't Enough!]]'' and earned his Rain Badge.

Interistingly, Juan did not use his in-game team in the anime, but rather Wallace's Ruby and Sapphire team.

Sootopolis Gym is also the home to {{ho|Sebastian}}, the assistant at the gym.

== Trivia ==

*Despite being a [[Water]]-type gym, its puzzle resembles an [[Ice]]-type gym.
*It is one of the only two gyms that have different [[Gym Leaders]] depending on the version. The other gym is [[Souryuu Gym]].

The '''Castelia Gym''' (Japanese: '''ヒウンジム''' ''Hiun Gym'') is the official [[gym]] of [[Castelia City]]. It is based on {{type2|Bug}} [[Pokémon]]. The [[Gym Leader]] is [[Arti]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him receive the {{badge|Beetle}}.

==In the games==
[[File:Castelia Gym 2.png|thumb|right|Alternate view of Castelia Gym]]


The Castelia Gym is designed like a huge beehive. It contains many small hexagonal rooms, several which are cut off by walls of honey which are at first barricaded by gates. There are buttons which are placed in the center of most of the rooms, and if certain buttons are stepped on, they trigger the gates to descend. However, not all the buttons trigger the doors to descend, but make Trainers to appear and be battled. The player is able to walk through the walls of honey once these gates have gone, giving them the availability to venture through the gym and battle Arti. The gym is also decorated with pictures painted by Arti himself.

The room in which Arti is is a little different to the previous rooms. The hexagonal room leads to a set of stairs, which leads up to a platform on which Arti stands.

Evetype: /* Intro */

[[Image:Lokoko.jpg|thumb|right|Lokoko]]
'''Lokoko''' (Japanese: '''ロココ''' ''Rokoko'') is a [[character of the day]] from the [[Pokémon anime]]. She appeared in ''[[EP232|Just Waiting On A Friend]]''.

Lokoko lived in a mansion with a {{p|Ninetales}}. {{an|Brock}} fell head over heels in love with her, and was considering living with her forever. But {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} felt that something was odd. Whenever Lokoko went by a mirror, she had no reflection, and whenever they tried to alert Brock to what was happening, Lokoko and Ninetales would get in their way.

After finding an old room in the mansion, they learned that the Ninetales belonged to the owner of the mansion. He left one day hundreds of years before, and never returned. Lokoko was an illusion created by the Ninetales.

After a battle with [[Team Rocket]], Brock learned the truth about Lokoko and Ninetales. The reason they wanted him to stay was due to his resemblance to the mansion's owner. After Ninetale's [[Poké Ball]] was broken in battle, Brock told it to go free. Once it did, the mansion and Lokoko disappeared.

Berry (item)

2011-01-31T01:11:56Z

Evetype: /* List of Generation II Berries */

'''Berries''' were introduced in [[Generation II]] to take advantage of the then-new [[held item]]s feature, which allows a Pokémon to hold and use specific items in battle. As [[Generation I]] items that have become standard, such as [[Potion]]s and {{DL|Status ailment healing item|Full Heal}}s, are man-made, a system of ten Berries, each with a different effect, was created. While these [[Berry|Berries]] no longer exist, having been replaced by the new system in [[Generation III]], their effects are similar to, and in many cases exactly the same as, the first ten Berries introduced in [[Hoenn]].
