This is a way lesser crime, but I distinctly remember during the 3DS era they insisted on doing serial code giveaways for legendaries/shinies at places like GameStop and Target instead of just releasing them via WiFi. Unsurprisingly, a lot of people missed out on these events. It didn't help that this was the only way to get mythical Pokemon like Mew and Jirachi for a LONG time.

I actually set out on a shiny Mew quest of my own back in 2022. Obtaining the Japanese cartridge, beating the game (in Japanese obviously), sending the cartridge out to have the old sea map injected and shiny hunting it took almost a year to do, and after failing it at 1401 encounters, I finally obtained it at 3332. THEN, I spent the ridiculous time and effort to transfer the mon from console to console so that I could have it in the modern Pokémon titles on the Switch. It was an insane process to go through, but it's also an awesome flex. Way to go on getting yours, Johnstone. 🎉🎉🎉

It became my longest hunt ever: 17,526 encounters. I was legitimately going crazy while hunting it. Once I got it, I knew I would transfer it out, so I went the extra mile and got it every single Ribbon it could possibly have. Since then, I’ve made sure to get it every possible Ribbon and Mark it could get, including the Master Rank Ribbon from the brief moment it was allowed in SwSh Ranked Battles and the Mightiest Mark from the Mewtwo Tera Raid event.

On one hand I don't miss how, um, _easy to miss_ these events were, but on the other it felt incredibly special to go somewhere in real life and be rewarded with an event Pokémon for your trouble. The feeling of really going somewhere for an event made these games feel alive, like they were more than just a game. They had treasures just waiting for you to get the keys to unlock them. It's a magical feeling that's just... not really there anymore. Online distributions are convenient, but they aren't _special._ Going to those events in real life, you could just feel the passion in the room. Passion for Pokémon. I think it might have been a big part of why I loved the series so much in my younger years but have since kind of outgrown it. Events like these just don't really happen much anymore, and that's kind of depressing.

5:04 "If the number is under 30, then this specific cartridge was available in stores for purchase before the release of the event." Can you provide a source on this? The imprinted numbers on a cartridge (any Nintendo game) simply mean which factory they were made in, not when they made. For games that have revisions (Emerald is not one of them), they would have an A, B, or C after the two numbers. 6:13 "And possibly a few English copies due to the fact that there was no Taiwanese or Chinese Emerald" Source on this as well? There is no proof that Mew was distributed to the English copies of Emerald. Due to how region locking worked on events, it's more than likely that the Old Sea Map event only worked on Japanese copies of Emerald.

While I don’t approve of Pokemon being locked into certain events, I do sort of miss when catching these mythical and legendaries was more mysterious and fun. Pokemon should just do it like how it was with the Regi trio in Emerald, make it a bit of a scavenger hunt or a fun puzzle. Make it feel fun and exciting again to seek out rare Pokemon. Yeah some people will inevitably look for the solution online, but so what? Plenty of other people will want to go through the challenge themselves.

I’m a little late to the party on this video, but I would like to share a tip for people who want to do this hunt themselves without risk of failing since you can actually account for every single dangerous thing Mew is capable of. Obviously the easiest, but most boring method would be to use a Master Ball. But if you’re like a lot of people and want it in something more unique, I’ve got a better strategy. I hunted this a little over a year ago and came at it with a Smeargle using the following setup: Spore to put it to sleep, Metronome and Imprison to make sure it can’t use Metronome to explode or flee, and Trick while holding Leftovers since it will Transform into the Smeargle and start to Struggle. Because of how Struggle works in Gen III, the Leftovers outpace the damage it does to itself. You could probably swap out Spore for something else, like possibly Transform (if you want to prevent it from transforming into Smeargle so you can keep seeing Mew), but the sleep does help the catch rate. Other than that, just make sure to bring plenty of balls. I ended up being way over prepared and catching it in one ball since its catch rate isn’t that low, but always better safe than sorry. Hope this helps someone!

Talking about Rayquaza, the best save spot is in front of Rayquaza. The Nature is randomized on stationary Pokémon. Once the battle starts, the Nature is now set. You can test that, by saving the Master Ball, and using it to see how the Nature differs based on reloading the save file.
