Which moveset for Mew?

I know its a kind of weird question as there are like 400 possibilities, but I got a 14/15/15 from my quests. Originally I thought, Id just encounter it and leave it aside, but those godly IV got me thinking of pushing mine up, as I have one or two great attackers of any type already and no bigger needs to fill. Atm it has Shadow Claw and Psyshock, 55 Fast TMs and 26 Charge TMs left.

Congratulation ! I encountered a pretty good one as well 151215. Need more rare candies to max though. You are so lucky^^ I used 10+ tms totally to get what your mew have lol. For me, the flexibility of psyshock makes mew special compared to mewtwo/alakzam/lugia. And as mew doesnt have any stab fast move, a psychic charge move is necessary in my opinion. Shadow claw/pound/cut are my favourate fast move just because they are fast. And shadow claw is the most ideal one among them considering the typing. So don t change your moves !

Agreed. You've got a solid Gengar counter as is.

Haha thanks man. You really got a beauty there aswell!
Good points about Psyshock, it does bother in one aspect a lot though: it lacks synergy with Shadow Claw. Thus I though of TMing Psyshock to Dark Pulse, so I can use it in Mewtu raids and against Psychic types. I dont mind, that its being outclassed by Tyranitar by a big margin, but it looks like thats the best use for Mew in the current meta.

Would be nice, if it would be usable as a gym defender, as it might deal a shit ton of damage with Voltswitch and Dragon Claw or Psyshock.^^

I would leave Psyshock and just play with fast TMs. Dragon Tail/Psyshock could be a good generalist.

Since Mew doesn't have a "use," per se (or at least doesn't do anything that another Pokemon doesn't do better), I decided to go for a move set I thought would be fun to use. After going through multiple TMs and iterations--including Shadow Claw, Dazzling Gleam, Wild Charge, Psyshock, and Dark Pulse--I landed on Pound/Rock Slide, which is the move I wanted all along.

Now I've got an adorable kitty who slaps you when it gets annoyed. And if you don't get the message buries you in a catacomb of rocks.

I call that fun.

I have 145 Fast TM's and am planning to burn at least 30 to get Shadow Claw. But I am not willing to spend more than a few Charge TM's on Mew. Currently has perhaps the worst possible move set: Frost Breath / Hyper Beam!

Mine has the exact opposite IV's: 12/15/12!
