So rare that it is still said to be a mirage by many experts. Only a few people have seen it worldwide.
When viewed through a microscope, this Pokémon's short, fine, delicate hair can be seen.
Apparently, it appears only to those people who are pure of heart, and have a strong desire to see it.
Its DNA is said to contain the genetic codes of all Pokémon, so it can use all kinds of techniques.
Because it can learn any move, some people began research to see if it is the ancestor of all Pokémon.

Mew is normally described as a pink cat-like creature, though its morphology is actually more like a 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 rabbit, and short arms with three-fingered paws. Mew has triangle-shaped ears, and baby-blue eyes. Mew is said to have the 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.
Mew's main abilities include turning invisible at will, creating force-fields of psychic energy, and being able to transform into any one of the other 492 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 Celebi.
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 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 relative, Mewtwo.
Reports found on Burned Mansion found in Cinnabar Island in the Kanto region speak of expeditions of scientists, either independent or Team Rocket-run which had sighted Mew in 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.
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.
Mew shares some traits with felines. It is also similar to a vertebrate embryo. It is purported by scientists to be the ancestor of all other Pokémon, a reference to the recapitulation theory.
Mew's name may refer to its cat-like appearance, with mew being the sound a kitten makes, the Japanese word "unique (myō)," or the English word "mutant (myūtanto)."
