Mew (ミュウ, Myuu) is a special fictional character from the Pokémon world. In the Pokémon video games, Mew is a Psychic-type Pokémon. It was a secret Pokémon found in the very first Pokémon games: Pokémon Red, Blue, Green, and Yellow. Mew is like Celebi from the Gold/Silver/Crystal games and Jirachi from the Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald games.
The name "Mew" sounds like the noise a cat makes. A lead programmer, Shigeki Morimoto, secretly put Mew into the game. When the Game Freak president, Satoshi Tajiri, found out, he decided to tell everyone about it.
Mew is #151 in the Pokédex. You could only get Mew through special events or by using a cheating device like Gameshark.
