Double Dark Mew
I caught my Mew today and it has Snarl and Dark Pulse. I plan to keep Dark Pulse but was wondering if it is worth the risk to TM Snarl and try to get Shadow Claw? I have 21 TMs and don't mind using about 10-15 of them if I need to. Thoughts?

You were extremely lucky, then. I spent seven charge TM's on a karate chop Machamp and still didn't get DP. It took me six charge TM's to get shadow ball on my shadow claw Gengar, and five to get heavy slam on a Snorlax. With Mew, you could easliy spend more than 50 TM's without getting the moves you want.
21 Fast TMs is more than enough. You can change 21 non-Mew Pokemon to the desired fast move. When do you ever have a moment where you need to fast TM 22 Pokemon (in a relatively short moment, as you get new ones quite fast) anyway?
I agree with the rest though. If you are going to power it up directly spending TMs on it may be worth it, otherwise you can better keep those TMs if they're not bothering you.
