Dex 151
Mew
Investment decision: Mew has HP 115, speed 120 and both attack multipliers ×1.25. Its balanced sides allow a special or physical route, but Mewtwo has a higher base special multiplier; flexibility is not the same as highest base damage.
How to get it: Mew is a five-star Kanto species and is also flagged for the official rift pool. It is not a starter. The common 0.25% number describes an ordinary pre-pity slot estimate, not the conditional ten-pull guarantee.
Psychic is a single type. A matching Psychic attack gains the own-type 20% bonus, turning ×1.25 into ×1.5 before other effects. A Normal attack does not receive that same-type bonus merely because Mew is single-type.
Special route: Confusion +, Nasty Plot, Psybeam and Mist Ball. Physical route: Swords Dance, Psycho Cut, Body Slam and Quick Attack. These are natural-pool examples, not tested clear results. Choose the route before spending on nature changes.
