Gen 3 - Mystery Mew Collection Complete!

[Urt1]

Thanks and I hope I didn't sound like a gatekeeper. I have nothing against people getting events that they missed, whether it be by something like wiimmfi or injection. Also version exclusives and trade-evolutions suck.

Another little blurb

[Sabresite]

The save game for Mystery Mew was clearly hacked. And since we provide a download of a save with all of the Mew, it isn't hard to believe that someone would simply flash the save game to a cart and sell it. It's been going on for years.

As for being legit, there is no way to tell the difference between a legit redeemed mew from the event and one trade from a cart off eBay.

This is an old thread... but not sure where else to ask best. Serebi lists Mystery Mew as possible to be listed as from Kanto or Hoenn upon transfer to Gen IV. But as these were generated then traded to players without Mystery Gift, that origin game isn't based on the game you received it on I thought? And all the Mew I checked in this file look to have the Origin Game set to Ruby (despite being distributed using a FR cart). Am I missing something, or is Serebii possibly wrong there?

Background - Trying to complete a living dex of pokemon from their earliest generations, so trying to find a way to get a Kanto mew from Gen 3.

Yeah serebii is wrong on this. The Transferred region/location is based on origin game, which is set to one game.

Thanks for confirming. I looked at the other few Mew distros for Gen 3 and they all looked similar to me. Are there no Mew in Gen 3 that have an origin of Kanto?

I know you can't transfer from Gens 1/2 to 3, but not sure if there's been a Gen 3 event that lists Kanto or not.

Specifically Gen 3? You just gotta load all the Gen 3 Mew and check in PKHeX.
Doesn't take that much time.

PokéPark: Ruby
Mystery: Ruby
Aura: Ruby

This should be evident enough that there ain't any Kanto event Mew in Gen 3...

Is there an excel/csv list of all these mews (with the spreads)? Could have sworn I found one before, but not finding it now. Or, is there a way to export the box contents to an excel format?

Yo, this topic brings me back. My friend and I got some Mystery Mews from Toys R Us in Sacramento back when the event happened, which I wanna say was in 2006? It’s been a while. Anyway my friend and I got a couple, I had Emerald and Leaf Green and was able to get 2. Barely used them for the longest time because I wasn’t sure how I would want to distribute their stats and which games I would use them in! Mew was my favorite Pokemon and was obviously one of the most rare back then, so it felt like a tough choice to commit to EV training and wasn’t sure which games I would like to keep them in. Anyway my friend gave me one of his Mews, and I ended up with 3 Mystery Mews, which I passed on to HeartGold and almost 10 years later I finally EV trained one in X/Y, because I liked the Pokemon Amie feature and wanted to use Mew in 3d. I saved the rest in the box and though I got ORAS and Pokemon Moon, I kept the Mews in a PC box in X/Y. Sad thing is, I finally lost the X/Y cartridge and no longer have those legit Mews that I got from the event. It brings me back though, I finally trained one to top potential in XY with ev training, ect and used it as my “main” Pokemon. Just thought I would share that we had 3 legit Mews over the generations and they may still be floating out there somewhere. My friend might have had 1 more in a cartridge but I have no idea if he still has it or not. They may still be out there
