This is my first attempt at writing an FAQ. I will listen to any criticism if you e-mail me. If there is any incorrect information, please let me know!
OK LISTEN, I have gotten like 50 e-mails saying that this code doesn't work. Please do not send me e-mail if it doesn't work on the AMERICAN VERSIONS OF THE GAME! So now I will address those who don't think it doesn't work
I DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THE U.S. Versions of Pokemon Red and Blue. This code works on the JAPANESE POKEMON GREEN VERSION OF THE GAME!!! I have this version. I have no knowledge of the American versions. I aquired the JAPANESE VERSION on vacation several weeks ago! Due to the fact that I take Japanese in school, I can read it and am able to play the game. If you still think I am wrong, I would be more than willing to take a look at someone else's GREEN VERSION with the exception of an emulated ROM, for I don't trust them. SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOW TO GET MEW (pokemon 151) WITHOUT USING ANY CODES!
This isn't as easy as it sounds...
1. It is crucial that you DO NOT!!! go onboard the S.S. ANNE at VERMILLLION CITY. If you do, the trick is null and void!!
2. Link up with a friend that has a pokemon with the CUT ability (HM01).
3. Play through the game until you have pokemon with the SURF (HM03) and STRENGTH (HM04). Then go to VERMILLION CITY.
4. Go on the gang plank that is the entrance way to the boat. Instead of getting on the boat, use your pokemon with SURF to swim to the ground to the right of it.
5. When you go onto the ground, you will see a truck. Use your pokemon with STRENGHTH to move the truck. After you move the truck, you will see the icon of a pokeball or of a pokemon (like when you encounter MEWTWO). Which icon you get depends on the color of pokemon you have. Engage this icon. You will now be fighting MEW (pokemon 151).
MEW starts at level 10. His abilities are TRANSFORM and a random other ability. He will learn MEGA PUNCH at level 20, METRONOME at level 30, and PSYCHIC at level 40. He gets 4 HP UP extra after each level up. Until he reaches level 25, he needs less than 1000 Experience Points to gain a level. He has NO WEAKNESSES to ANY certain pokemon type. I have also heard reports that if you get him without Game Genie, he gets boosted EXP. like a traded pokemon. Who ever said that MEWTWO was the best pokemon was wrong! MEWTWO starts at level 70, granted but needs 19000 EXP. to become level 71. MEW is better. I got MEW at level 10, and ten minutes later I already had him upto level 17
ALTERNATE WAY TO GET MEW!!! (JAPANESE GREEN OR GOLD VERSION ONLY)
1. Collect all 150 pokemon.
2. Go to YAMABUKI CITY (a.k.a. Saffron City U.S. version).
3. Look around for a while in the houses until you find the right guy. He will ask if you have all 150 pokemon. If you do, he will give you MEW!
In the American version he just gives you a stupid diploma.
-----GAME GENIE CODES TO GET MEW-----------
151-91A-7FC 151-93A-F7E B91-9BA-6EB
Enter this code and look for wild MEW's in the tall grass patch to the LEFT of Cerulean City by the ledges.
-----GAME SHARK CODES TO GET MEW-----------
Enter the code 011564D1.
The pokemon in your first position will become MEW. Be sure to put a common pokemon that can be easily caught again in the first position. If you have MEWTWO in your first position, you don't want him to get erased!!!
