Default Mew Wi-Fi Event

A new Wi-Fi event for Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver is on it's way! This event will give you a Level 5 Mew which only knows one move: Pound. It will come in a Cherish ball and will have a Premier Ribbon. The Wi-Fi event will be available October 15th (this Friday) and will end October 30th (Saturday). It is unknown if this Mew will also be available for download in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum. It is available for download to those in the US/Canada and Europe.

Is it just a Wi-Fi event? There's no special location to go to? I remember the last Mew event I went to was at a Toys R Us.

I think I've already got this Mew on my Japanese version. It might be the same one, it's got the same level, move, ball and ribbon. I'm glad to see that it's FINALLY getting a release outside of Japan!

Nais, now I can add it to my collection of other Mews! (I have one from Hoenn, one from My Pokémon Ranch and I think another one from someplace else).

...I really wish I bought SoulSilver already. I was able to get I think three Jirachi's since I had one of each D/P/Pt, but I won't be quite so fortunate this time around.

Ooh cool, now I'll have 4 Mew. I love events over wi-fi, I don't have to drive to the US or ask for a trade. >_<

I've lost track of how many I have now... Before they were really rare, the only way I could get one was to glitch it in R/B/Y... Then I got four at an event with all of my GBA games, I've had quite a few from Wi-Fi, and now this? It's not really that rare any more, is it?

I saw this on Pokegym, and got really exited. I'll have to mention it at BookTRON on Thursday.

Thankfully, you have to talk to the Delivery Man at a Poke Mart to get this thing, so people like me will be soft-resetting over and over to get a good one!

I wouldn't actually bother to SR with Mew. It's an Uber, and I can NOT do Ubers battles. I'll still train it though, as it gives me something to do, and should I ever get into Ubers I've got a bit of a head start!

I think I have this Mew Event. I bribed my friend to trade the event from his Japanese Copy. Not like I'll get any Wi-Fi events anyways...

Well, I don't yet have one myself. Think of it this way:
  • Quite a few Pokémon fans were introduced with D/P/Pt/HG/SS. Others never knew what an event was until those games came around (the latter is my case).
  • Quite a few Pokémon fans don't want to go to the ever-rare Toys 'R' Us. I am in this group myself as well. Even inside the U.S. such stores may be a couple hours away. As such, Wi-Fi makes it a lot easier for more rural fans.
  • Some people may no longer have their older games or reset the game before knowing to transfer. I was in this group until about a year ago (when before I reset Platinum for the second time I moved everything to HeartGold).
  • No Pokémon is ever rare with Action Replay or GTS (which may go hand-in-hand: not sure).

Could always go to a:
  • Bookstore or Local Library
  • McDonalds (only some are free)
  • Coffee Shop
  • Random Restaurant (though maybe that's more common where I live)

It might only be where I live that there are 200 free hotspots in a 5 mile radius, though (there is also one Gamespot in such a radius, which helps when they give things away).

Yeah I guess, I'm not really into Event Pokemon anyways that much though.

It's about time another Wi-Fi event showed up for us English speakers

I'll get it, of course. It'll probably just sit in my PC like all my other legendaries, though. I'm not big on raising legendaries.

Well, I only have a single Mew in my Platinum (as far as my memory serves me), so this is a great chance to increase the collection. I'm a little disappointed that it doesn't have anything special besides the ribbon, though.

I just got Mew TTT and I am starting on EVing it! (Which is really good because I got it as Modest nature the very first time I received it!)
