Get Mew through a glitch. What rock where you under if you didn't know about this?

[SOMEONE5]

Would someone try that on g/s/c? It may just work because this glitch was found out only recently, and if nintendo didn't know about it, then they might have done it again in g/s/c. I can't try this because I'm out of batteries. I hope someone else would.

I think it wasn't found out until recently because it was too complicated to be found in the game's data(as something that triggers pokemon based on the last one you fought against, you'd have to scan all of the possible bugs in that cartridge, something almost impossible to do if you're not one of these which made the game - and if you were you'd probably have no problem in locating this kind of bugs, like the missingno glitch, or the glitched/numbers city). You'd have to be a programmer at nintendo to find that kind of a bug in the data.

Also, can someone find out who's the source of this info? that's the biggest mystery in this subject.
If it's a leak from nintendo, then we can all forget about seing this in g/s/c(or r/s for whoever is counting on it).

[Sakura12]

Hmm... I might try sometime soon, but after I complete my Ru/Sa versions...

[SOMEONE5]

Then try it in R/S first please. Now I have my batteries, but I can see - by trying to do the code on the few trainers left in my game(silver) that want to battle - that they notice you right on the spot, and if you somehow do suceed to open the menu(I didn't manage to), flying will make everyone around you disappear(all the people), because that's how fly works in g/s/c, so maybe using sweet scent would do the job if the menu would somehow open, but because you can't stay there, I suggest to use dig infront of trainers in caves(that doesn't make them disappear).
I hope someone(like you Sakura12) tries this on R/S, because I saw that fly doesn't make the people around you disappear in these version, so the glitch might repeat in these R/S. I prefer not to do this, because I'll need to start a new game(and go far enough to have fly and surf with me), while you(Sakura 12) can try it right away.
If you try it, and it doesn't work for you walking towards a trainer, then maybe try it on a trainer walking towards you.

It looks like it has a better chance to exist in R/S then on g/s/c, believe it or not.

[Ninetales3001]

That code is really neat. I'd try it if I had the game, but the video was enough evidence for me. ^^;

Has anyone ever thought that the programmers of the game may have programmed it in on purpose? Who knows?

i dont think so

[Jay]

The process of getting Mew seems too complicated for it to be programmed into the game. There is always that possibility but it's very unlikely

Luckily I already have a Mew that I got from Japan many years ago, so I don't need to restart any of my versions again yay

[ShinyVulpix]

I've tried it in yellow version
But when I use this code with the swimmer (the one that looking at the house)
under the FUSHIEA CITY(the one with GYM 5)
When I fly back to LAVENDER TOWN and go to ROUTE 8 and fight the pokemon
The screen turns dark ,playing the fighting sound
But the screen still dark
And a moment later it screw up my game

[Gnight]

[POKEMASTERMARIO]

Which pkmn make missigno appear?
Because it also works in the european versions and missigno was quitted from them,maybe with this trick there can be a way to have an spanish missigno

battle teh rocker south from lavendertown

[GSAce789]

Wow, this code really works. I've never tried any others, cause I knew they were all bs, but since I was restarting my game anyhoo, I didn't battle those two guys and gave it a try.
Well, a few days later, here it is. And believe me, Mew is worth it.
Here's mine's stats, 30 levels later:

MEW level 37- 130 HP
ATTACK: 96 DEFENSE: 90
SPEED:90 SPECIAL: 92

Very good everything, high HP for it's level, yada yada...

[Pokemaster Cody]

Question: Does this work on the Jappanese Red/Green?

[Kari and Mewtwo]

heres another question: Are the DVs for this mew randomly calculated or is it all the same? (i'm assuming its random)

It works? Amazing! It's just like magic!

[Profesor_Rod]

DV's must be random. there is no doubt. You are very lucky GSace. Did you searched the mew? I think it may took at least 20 tries.

[God of Fire]

I let my friend shark me a mew on my yellow game but it's horribly glitched up (it says 'Pikachu') so I'd love to check this code out and get myself a legit one. However I value my game files so I'll go and ask my friend to try this out.

[Lynx Wolverina]

look, a mew code only one is real, and that is the one where you go to gambler, fly away, defeat youngsta, get on route between lavender and saffron in anyway and cathc sttupid mew on level 7.
my mew is now on lvl 58, I do not train it much.
Look, I posted this thread so many times and nobody wouldnt believe...well, someone cant believe, someone has a mew.
I started new game to get mew. I traded my bests to silver, then I didnt even miss them, becuz I hate my Blue since I had a missingno...
If you defeat some channelers instead of youngster, Missingno appears. Some other trainers make Scyther, Pinsir, other pkmn appear.


HEY I LOVE ARCANINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!§
I named my friend Arcadilly!
And Darcanine sounds good too, doznt it...

[Gnight]

i like your sig, dude!! that's the coolest pic of mewtwo i've seen yet

[Lynx Wolverina]

you meant me?
oh Im so pleased!
please dont call me dude as I hate it.
I love my sig too,,I didnt mean to cause my beloved wolverine to look at mewtwo!

[drgntamer]

Faithless

The process of getting Mew seems too complicated for it to be programmed into the game. There is always that possibility but it's very unlikely

You Probably have it the wrong way around. If they programmed Mew in the game, chances are you would have to beat the Elite Four 10000000 times, or do some of the other weird stuff codes say. Then, when the person finaly gets the right code, everyone thinks they are just crazy. <evil laugh in background>

[Lynx Wolverina]

IF THERE IS ANYONE LEFT ON WORLD WHO DOZ NOT BELIEVE, I CAN TELL U THAT IT WORKS. AND MILLION TRAINERS CAN TOO.

this is just a noooote

[RaZoR LeAf]

Yes thank you for that little outburst Lynx, but if people choose not to beleive now then it's their own problem. I'd imagine a 10 page topic full of people saying it works, just on this board, let alone, similar things on pokemon boards all over would be enough to convince them, without you posting pointlessly.

[Gnight]

yeah ya'll sure convienced me

[CobaltDragon]

Oh wow!!! It really does work!! I was so pissed when I lost my Nintendo-Mew by forgetting to put in the N64 Box and starting a new game!! And the best thing is, its OT is me!! TuT I got a Lv. 7 Mew and I'm so happy! I finally completed my Gold Pokedex! That took a long time...

[Red Gyrados Trainer]

It works! Ha! well what do you know! looks like iwont be neading this cheat cartridge *throws cheat cartridge out of the window* 8)

[pokehimon]

*walks under a window and gets hit in the head by a cheating cartridge*
Hey! A cheat cartridge! I've always wanted one of these.
Oh and the other day I completed my blue pokedex without any means of out game trading at all!

[Seraphymon]

This is the most amazing thing ever. I'm stuck at work right now, and I just heard about this, and I'm dying to get home and get myself a Mew!!! Has anyone else had any problems with it not learning moves as it levels up, or whatever? One person said they raised it, it didn't learn anything, then suddenly s/he had a level 50 Mew in his/her box. Was this just a weird glitch on that person's own cart, or is it like that all the time?

that was me. I dunno if anyone else had that thing happen or if I was just extremely lucky. whatever. *goes off to eat something*

[Crystalmaster Mike]

Yeah, so I got myself a Mew too. And now I'm trying to find out what other Pokémon you can get through the code. So far, when in Saffron, battling against Gary:

- getting defeated by his Gyarados: MissingNo. / ## M' ##
- " " " " Alakazam: Vaporeon (good thing if ya got another Eevolution)

I've also captured a Hitmonlee though I don't know how. Also, the sentences you sometimes get are funny!!

- "You look good at Pokémon, but how's your chem?" Vaporeon/MissingNo. (what's a chem anyway?)
- "I'm better at school than this!" Hitmonlee

[Gloom]

Well, after finally catching Mew (I finally got the heart to erase my Blue file), I decided to do some experimenting, and these are my results so far:

First Fisherman south of Lavender: Tangela
The Pokémaniac just north of Lavender: Tentacool

As soon as I figure out more, I'll post more here.

[pokehimon]

You don't need to battle different trainers to get the pokemon you want. It all depends on the special stat of the last pokemon you battle. Read this or copy it and read it:


1. Fly to Celadon City. Go right, then take the Underground Path. Upon emerging on the other side, you can save the game (recommended).

2. Press Down, then as soon as your character starts moving, hit Start. Fly to the city of your choice...

3. There should be a trainer who attempts to battle (fortunately for you, your Flyer will prevent the battle from occurring). If he doesn't express intent to fight, then you already battled that trainer. You'll have to start a new game to get extra Pokemon if this is so, so drop everything into a 64 Box now.

4. Go out and find a battle. This could be a trainer battle, or it could be a wild Pokemon (though it's harder to control the final outcome in the wild). Just remember: Until you initiate a battle, the A/B/Start buttons will be unresponsive, so Gym Leaders don't work.

5. Before battling, be sure to put one square's worth of distance between you and a trainer (otherwise, you'll get a frozen game and will have to retry the sequence).

6. Win the battle. If you're opting for wild Pokemon, you CAN initiate multiple battles until you find the Pokemon you want.

7. Fly back to Saffron. Walk 1 step down, 27 steps right, 13 steps up, then 4 steps right. (In other words, head toward the eastern guard post.)

8. Why did the Pause menu pop up out of nowhere? Because there's someone on route 8 who's still waiting for a battle! Hit B anyway.

9. Wild Pokemon appeared! Normally, it's only L7, so catching it should be no problem. Cases of levels anywhere from 5-10 have been heard of.

10. After catching, you can save the game, then go back and repeat the entire sequence. The Gambler will still want to battle, and you can still Fly away at the last minute. This can get you as many free Pokemon of your choice...

But what determines who you fight?

Luckily, we know now. The opponent is determined by the Special stat of the last Pokemon you fought.

Numbers above 232 - Trainers

BUT HOW DO WE CONTROL SPECIAL STATS?

Normally, you can't. But you CAN take advantage of the fact that a given trainer's Pokemon have the same stats in EVERY game.

The first known Trainer that yielded something important was a Youngster on route 25 (between Cerulean City and Bill's house). The single L17 Slowpoke had a Special stat of 21, and as you can see, 21 is the key to Mew.
For convenience, a picture of the Youngster's location can be found at http://white-cat.virtualave.net/pfiles/catchmew4.gif.

Remember, you MUST LEAVE AT LEAST ONE SQUARE OF SPACE.

Any Pokemon whose key number is 128 or higher can be picked up via the Cinnabar Coast Trick, but this method gets them too. Just find a Pokemon with a high enough Special. However, that can be difficult...
For Mewtwo, with number of 131, that gets tricky. No trainer short of the Elite Four, Sabrina (Yellow), or Blaine (also Yellow) carries a 131-Special Pokemon, and those six can't be triggered on inactive A/B/Start buttons. You could explore the Unknown Dungeon, where Kadabra yields a 1/16 chance of hitting the magic number. But don't we want higher odds?

First off, why depend on the OPPONENT having the target Special? Figure out who you want, find its Key Number, then catch something of your OWN and make sure its Special is just right. Put it in slot 1.

Next...Fight a Ditto. Use a timewasting move. Ditto will transform, and acquire your Attack, Defense, Speed, and Special stats.

But since you already chose your Special very carefully, you can now kill the Ditto and the number that's saved will be exactly what you want it to be!

Then go back to Saffron and step 7. If you found Ditto in Unknown Dungeon, you'll have to Dig or Escape Rope out to make sure you don't enter another battle (which will change the number, and therefore the Pokemon).

Finally, see Rhydon, Kangaskhan, NidoranM, and Clefairy? Their numbers are so low that it’s IMPOSSIBLE to get a Special to match them. But don’t worry, it’s still possible to acquire any one of them with the trick.

How? Well, the opponent is determined by Special, but since PokemonToAppear is only an 8-bit trigger, it’s only the last 8 bits of Special. If you add 256 to the numbers, their corresponding Pokemon are identical. So you can think of Rhydon as having a key number of 257, Kangaskhan 258, etc. Even beyond the first four, this +256 will work (so that if you want another Eevee, but don’t have a 102-Special Pokemon handy, your full-stat Gengar will work just as well).

Note, though, that since even L70 Mewtwo tops out at 241, you’ll have to Ditto the numbers in to use this. That shouldn’t be so hard, should it?

Enjoy

where did u get this info? O_O

[pokehimon]

I think its from gamefaqs, enjoy.

[Amphatoast]

How can you figure out the special stat of your pokemon?

[Crystalmaster Mike]

How can you figure out the special stat of your pokemon?

You go to stats, and there it is, along with Attack, Defense, Speed...

hmmm, so your saying if I go and fight a tentacool & kill it and its special attack was 74, I would end up fighting a level 7 Articuno?

[Crystalmaster Mike]

If you just fought a trainer, or that Tentacool was a trainer's, then yes.

Say, could there be a limit to the amount of times you can do the trick? Cause I've never fought the Gambler, but now it says he did... Maybe it's because I've caught two the same Pokémon, two Magnetons?

No, that shouldn't have anything to do with it. Err, if you cant battle the gambler you can also do the trick with the trainer to his left I think. Also there is a limit, you can only do this trick when you fight a trainer, and there's only so many trainers in the game.

[Lugia Trainer]

Originally posted by pokehimon

Well, if fighting your rival at Indigo Plateau would trigger it, then shouldn't it last?

I'm still in shock at the posibility that, all along, there's been is a way to get Mew besides sharking!

I haven't tried it myself yet, but I will as soon as I can locate my blue cartridge...

[pokehimon]

No, to fight a trainer while doing this trick, the trainer must walk to you. You cant talk to trainers (or use any of your buttons actually) therefore you wouldn't be able to get past Lorelie, youd be stuck in the room with her. Believe me, i've tried it.
