Collector Insights
Mew is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 40 HP and a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It features the attack Psyshock, which costs one Psychic energy and deals 10 damage, flipping a coin to potentially confuse the defending Pokémon. The card includes the ability Neutral Shield, preventing all effects of attacks, including damage, from Evolved Pokémon unless Mew is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed. Mew’s flavor text describes its rarity, noting it is considered a mirage by many experts and has been seen by only a few worldwide. The card is part of the Base series, released in 1999 as a Promo rarity, and was illustrated by Ken Sugimori. It has no resistances but is weak to Psychic-type attacks with a ×2 multiplier. The card’s theme color is a warm brown, reflecting its unique and elusive nature.
So rare that it is still said to be a mirage by many experts. Only a few people have seen it worldwide.
