Thank you! Have it backed up now, yeah. All successful. I'm still thinking on it. I like the idea that it's mine and is individual and a particular piece of my childhood, and not cloned repeatedly by anyone who wants it. On the other hand, being the only one preserved from that event would be really cool. I need to go dig around in any 2000 photo wallets knocking about to see whether I have any photos from the day too. Thank you again for your replies, kind of you to help, I really appreciate it. And so quickly too.

Aha! Thank you so much for your help. I got very disappointed, but thinking there is no way that was possible - given I never knew the Mew glitch, and was pretty certain on my chain of custody of my Millennium Dome Mew - I checked my brother's Red cart, which is miraculously also still alive, and bingo my Mew is there. I guessed that the only way I had a glitch Mew was if I accidentally traded the wrong one back to my Yellow cart. Thank you! OT is UK too.

Hi all, I went to the Pokémon adventure event at the Millennium Dome in September 2000 and was transferred a Mew there. With some level of certainty, the Mew I still have on my Pokemon Yellow cartridge is the same Mew. I have restarted the game a few times over the years, and each time would trade the Mew on to my brother's Pokemon Red cartridge, and trade it back so I could keep hold of it. Having recently fetched my cartridge from my childhood bedroom, I was delighted to find that it was still working, and the battery was somehow still hanging on in there. Consulting with AI, I was encouraged to buy a GBxCart RW and back my file up. It did however tell me stats that it would expect a Mew obtained at this event to have. Namely a OT with a simple short name, and IVs 5 HP, 10 Attack, 1 Defense, 12 Speed, 5 Special My OT is ASH, and my IVs are 2 HP, 12 Attack, 10 Defense, 7 Speed, 4 Special PKHeX also says: "Not legal Encounter: Invalid: Unable to match an encounter from origin game. Fateful: Invalid: Fateful Encounter with no matching Encounter. Has the Mystery Gift data been contributed?" Now, again, I am 99% sure this Mew is the real deal - does any of what I'm describing seem within the realms of possible? Or are the known event Mews from that tour all so consistent that it means something is off here? Thanks for your help! Very new to all this. Arthur
