The only way you can get mew is either use an Action Replay (cheat) or get the Japanese Version of Emerald.

quote Blazichu

I have got it on Fire Red a shiny too

Well, without a cheating device it is impossible to get mew on firered....

Oh, and well said Woodentop.

what are you talking about, you can get mew, you need to go to newyork though

Are you thinking of another pokemon? You can't get mew from New York. The Pokemon Center has a pokemon catching machine that will give you a pokemon, but you can't get legendary pokemon from it.

can you trade a pokemon japan version of pokemon emerald to
a english version of fire red.

I think I remember reading that you can't as the translations between the games would be hard to do for a trade... but again I'm not sure as I have not looked into it. I believe Octarine Skye would know though...

[color=black]No, Mew is obtainable in Emerald only a World's Edge Ticket.
You have to chase it. [/color]

Again, it is only confirmed for the Japanese version so far, and not for the english version...

Wow, so many people seem to be pretty sure of themselves, that, just because they see it on serebii, it must be true that Mew is obtainable in Emerald.

Sander is right as far as I know.

Interesting thing though, has anyone looked into the truck rumor for Fire Red and Leaf Green? The truck is still there, for whatever reason, but has someone gotten to it to try using HM's?

PS-About time you started posting again.. you jerk XD

Sorry but I cheated to get it

But Mew is the Best Pokemon With even stats and it learns any attack

from trading from emreald jap and other things tat u cheated on yes then it is

The only reason I did this is because I live in Australia and we will probably never get those pokemon anyway.

Mew is a good pokemon because it is rare. I didn't mean to say it was the best

A pokemon with Wonder Guard and no weakness would be impossible to beat

Also a different colour Mew would have a ratio of 99:1

You mean a Shiny Mew?

The ratio you gave was incorrect if that's what you mean. First off, the 99 and 1 should switch sides. The ratio you gave means that out of every one time you get Mew, it'll have something like a 990 percent chance of being shiny.

I can't even explain it correctly, because it's so hard to.

If I go way back to the days of Red and Blue, I remember that my team ALWAYS had a Mew AND a Mewtwo in it. Other party members were Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos, and I'd top it off with a Snorlax or Arcanine. Why did I use so many legendary Pokemon? Because I was a newbie, and thought that they were the best team ever. But now, after playing through Pokemon Ruby and Fire Red, I've learned that Pokemon don't have to be Legendary to be awesome and good strong team members.

My point is that, Mew really isn't too important, unless you want it to finish your Pokedex. That is my say on the subject.

PS- Sander... you loon... How dare you edit my post! :scream:

As stated as before, Mew can not be obtained as of NOW, but is possible in the future (only confirmed for Japanese Emerald so far) so no reason to keep this opened as the question as been answered.

As for you Griffith, even though it says I edited it, I only added a small welcome note welcoming you back to neoseeker.
