Pokemon Go: Catch Mew and Mewtu - Here's how
Mewtwo has the number 150 in the Pokédex, Mew the number 151. Both Pokémon are already in play. Mewtwo is even the Pokémon with the highest attack value at the moment.
- The legendary Psycho-Pokémon was already teasered in the trailer for Pokémon GO. However, it is currently very difficult to catch Mewtwo or Mew.
- With the arena update in June 2017, there was further evidence of the two legendary Pokémon. Mew and Mewtu are said to be among the new raid bosses hatching from black eggs. At least that's what the app's program code reveals.
- When and whether Mewtwo and Mew will actually appear as raid bosses in arenas is still unclear. So far, Mewtwo has only been caught in special community events.
- The first event of this kind took place in August 2017 in the Yokohama Arena in Japan. There the players could catch Mewtwo in a special raid. A comparable event took place in Germany in October 2017, the Safari Zone in a shopping center in Oberhausen.
- Contrary to expectations, the players did not need any of the rare master balls for Mewtwo. The Pokemon was easy to catch.
