Mew Dilemma

Hi, I finally catched my Mew. I just want to use in spite of his ranking. He came with Poison Jab / Ancient Power. After one TM, I got Charge Beam / Blizzard. The thing is I just have 3 fast, 4 charge TM left and other pokemon waiting. Which of the two attacks you would change Charge Beam or Blizzard? Which other attack would be compatible with the remaining?

Thanks in advance!

What do you want to use it for?

No specific use. Attacking gyms or raids.

There's an article about Mew's moves. Blizzard is actually a good charge move, while Shadow Claw, Dragon Tail, or Frost Breath would make a better fast move. Mine had Wild Charge when I caught it and I'm going to hold onto it until I get enough TMs to feel comfortable rolling for Ice Beam.

If you were only going to roll off one, I'd roll off Charge Beam. Blizzard isn't bad AND Charged TMs are more rare/valuable.

Charge Beam and Blizzard DO work well together against Flying defenders, but don't tag team Dragon/Ground/Grass as well. Dragon Tail or Shadow Claw would be better alternatives. Honestly, your original Poison Jab wasn't a bad roll.

IMO, spending/wasting TMs on Mew should only be done as a luxury when you have a large stockpile and no other candidates for TM use.

Charge Beam is alright, but Pidgeots aren't that common in gyms.

Disagree - Charge beam has the highest EPS of all of Mew's fast moves. Look at the Pareto frontier on the plot of EPS vs. DPS. If Mew is about the Charged move, Charge beam will get you there fast, and is fairly neutral.
