How to Get Mew in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl
Who doesn’t want to nab themselves a Mew to add to the party? Mew is a remarkably powerful Pokémon with insane base stats that easily makes it a tank and capable of withstanding some punishment.
Just think: all of its base stats start at 100. It may not evolve, but it’s strong enough as it is.
Also, even though it’s a Psychic-type Pokémon, it can easily master other move types. It naturally learns some Fighting, Normal, Water, Rock, and Dark-type moves. There’s a reason this Pokémon is thought to be the ancestor of all Pokémon because of its sheer versatility. But how do you get Mew in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl in the first place? You can’t locate it in the wild like you can other Pokémon.
Well, you need to have a previous save file on your Nintendo Switch. This save file must be from either Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! or from Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu!
If you have these loaded on your Nintendo Switch, then you can get Mew. What you want to do is head to Floarama Town. Veer left of the Pokémon Center where you’ll notice a flower field. Standing in the field is an elderly couple. You will want to speak to the woman in the field. This NPC will grant you a Mew for free as long as you have that save data loaded onto your system.
