Mew Exists in Pokemon Go, and It's One of A Kind


Last week, Pokemon Go sleuths already figured out that the game currently contains 4 legenday Pokemon and they are Zapdos, Moltres, Articuno, and Mewtwo, but we're left wondering why they couldn't find Mew among them.

A deeper dig into the game's code revealed that Mew is indeed part of the game, but it's not considered a Legendary Pokemon. Mew is slated under a unique Pokemon category, and is the only one in the game that falls under it.

The new Pokemon category is called "Mythic" , and just like all the other 4 legendary Pokemon in the game, it doesn't have a 'base capture rate', which means, unlike most Pokemon, it can't be captured in the game.

Mew' stats show that it'll be one of the most powerful Pokemon in the game, ranking 3rd in terms of Max CP and 11th in terms of Max HP. Mew will most likely be caught in special events hosted by Niantic.
