CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Mew exists on the boundary between observation and mystery. So few people have seen it that some experts still regard it as an uncertain apparition. Its ability to become invisible helps it remain elusive. Even when it approaches humans, it can escape their notice, leaving more questions than traces of its quiet, hard-to-confirm presence.

Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.

A detail worth noticing

Mew card 30th-G calculates its attack from the Energy attached to the opponent's Active Pokémon rather than its own. It deals 10 damage plus 40 for each Energy attached to that target. YOSHIROTTEN illustrated this printing: the more Energy the opponent gives their Active Pokémon, the more vulnerable it becomes to this attack.
