Answer 1

Double/Triple Battle

Mew @ Life Orb/Smooth Rock
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Transform
- Tailwind
- Sandstorm
- Psychic

Okay, nobody cares about any moves besides Transform. That is right, this is a Transform Mew. Part of the classic Double Landorus and Excadrill Triple Battle team. Tranform into Landorus, then KO everything with the combined might of three of the most powerful Earthquakes of all time.

Answer 2

Mew @ Leftovers
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Thunder Wave
- Dragon Tail
- Roost
- Heal Bell

Answer 3

I like this moveset because has coverage against 14 types.

Answer 4

Mew @ Weakness Policy
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 252HP / 100 Def / 156 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Amnesia
- Iron Defense
- Baton Pass
- Roost

This set works well with a speed passer like ninjask blaziken or scolipede. with some speedboosts it wil outspeed anything so you can use amnesia or iron defense or roost before they hit you. If you are lucky youre opponent wil hit you with a bug dark or ghost type attack. if you have maxed out youre defences you can use baton pass. use baton pass to go in a bulky sweeper like ttar. it wil have the speed to outspeed almost anything an it is indestructible.

Answer 5

Mew @ Chesto Berry
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
IVs: 0 Atk
- Rest
- Recycle
- Swagger
- Foul Play

Rest, Recycle, and a Chesto Berry is a great combo for a defensive Pokémon like Mew. Swagger confuses opponents at the cost of an attack boost. Max Defense/HP and a Bold nature helps Mew take those Physichal hits, and Foul Play gets a boost in power.

Answer 6

Mew
Mew @ Mewnium Z
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Psychic
- Fire Blast
- Nasty Plot
- Rock Polish

Answer 7

Double/Triple Mew Special

Item: Leftovers/Wise-glasses
Ability: Synchronize
Nature: Timid
EVs: 252 Speed, 252 S.Attack, 6 Hp

---

Blizzard
Surf
Thunderbolt/Air-cutter
Heal-bell/Light-screen/Reflect

---

Blizzard hits all foes and is coverage. Surf hits everything and is coverage. Thunderbolt is coverage, Air-cutter hits all foes but is not very powerful. Heal-bell/Light-screen/Reflect choose you support move.

Answer 8

Mew @ Leftovers

Trait: Synchronize

EVs: 252 HP / 196 Def / 60 SDef

Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)

• Super Fang
• Roost
• Transform
• Night Shade

---

An interesting set, that I'm actually using in a rain team of mine.

Super Fang breaks down walls, and that works well. Roost heals off HP, as he's gonna be taking hits a lot. Transform gives him the option to copy an opponents layout when they're low on hp ( Useful ) while Night Shade is instant damage to walls again, or to anything.

Kind of a wall breaker I guess. He can play a lot of roles.

Answer 9

Screwtheprez (Mew) @ Icy Rock
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 204 HP / 252 SAtk / 52 SDef
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Will-O-Wisp
- Hail
- Volt Switch
- Blizzard

" Screw the president " - Josh

I'm Josh.

Will-O-Wisp makes this thing bulky and cripples sweepers. It's a nice slot to have on a lead to cripple lead sweeps and switch ins.
Hail sets up the weather in the case that you indeed to want to " Screw the president " and not use Obamasnow. Next Volt Switch + Blizzard is bolt-beam coverage. Blizzard actually hitting because of hail, and Volt Switch being an escaping attack to use after setting up hail. I personally love using Mew > Mr. President.

Answer 10

Mew @ Leftovers

Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)

• Swords Dance
• Flame Charge
• Zen Headbutt
• Drain Punch

One of my new favorite sets. EVs give bulk and speed.
Swords Dance, well...boosts Attack! What else can be said? xD
Flame Charge is a way of doing damage, but raising Speed. Even at base 40, it will hurt after Swords Dance.
Zen Headbutt is STAB, and also hurts after Swords Dance.
Drain Punch ALSO hurts after Swords Dance. It'll restore your health if it's running low.

Answer 11

Subsitute=Barrier

Answer 12

Baton Passer Set

Go Awesome Mew
(M) @Leftovers
Trait: Synchronize
EV's: 252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SpD
Timid Nature: (+Spe -Atk)
~Baton pass
~Nasty Plot / Swords Dance: (Depending on whether you want physical or special)
~Taunt
~Psychic

Answer 13

Annoying Mew @Leftovers
Timid Nature(+speed, -attack)
Ev's: 252Spe, 252Hp, 4SpA

~Thunder Wave
~Will-o-Wisp
~Transform
~Psyshock/Psychic

This set is highly annoying as well as particularly useful. This mew acts as a useful lead and has great speed allowing it to cripple fast or physical attackers with the status of your choice. Then, if the Pokemon has used a set-up move, such as quiver dance, swords dance, etc, you can steal the stat boost and be better off than the opponent after crippling it's speed or attack stat and performing a sweep with their Pokemon instead via Transform. The extra Hp helps to beat out the opponent after a transform and psyshock allows you to attack frail fighting/poison types with stab.

Answer 14

Mew @ Choice Scarf

Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spd
Modest Nature

• Psyshock
• Flamethrower / Fire Blast

• Ice Beam

Answer 15

Mewofdoom(Mew)@Life Orb
Nature:Timid
252 Sp.atk/252 spd/4HP
Flamethrower (to cover bug weakness and extra coverage )
U-Turn /Focus Blast (to cover Dark type weakness)
Psychic(STAB and 90 BP)

The last move really is ur own personal preference
