- How I Caught The Rarest Shiny Pokemon Ever
Shiny Mew is the one shiny Pokemon that I wanted more than any Shiny Pokemon ever. Not only was it one of the hardest shiny Pokemon ever it is also my favorite shiny of all time! Shiny Mew in Pokemon Emerald was only available in an event in 2005 exclusively in Japan! This video is the story of how I was able to get my hands on this Pokemon!

Thank you for watching!
Now that shiny mew has been available in Pokémon go twice and some more people have it, ur hunt makes it even more special cuz it’s from an actual mainline game
Facts not a lot of people got the sprite!
@@LewaPlays exactly, u got the sprite, and even tho some people would argue u hacked so it doesn’t count, all u did was enable to event. U still had to properly shiny hunt it and I congratulate u on ur find
@@Bigjar420 thats not the problem, the issue is there is no legal event ticket so Nintendo will flag it and not let it transfer up
@@Cruz1214.I have generated shiny mew and I can transfer it to home
I shiny hunted mew also because of Sonikks and got really lucky at around 1300 after 5 days of hunting. Congrats bro
Dude legend!!
Blue shinies rule! Congrats on getting shiny Mew! Also if you had a Zigzagoon, having Mew turn into it would increase the chance of Mew being caught because of Zigzagoon's catch rate.
I didnt know that!!
Yes! Maybe he needs a shiny Ditto next🤔
Great it has no value has it was gotten via cheating and not legit
you know there was a $5 ticket in July that after completing the research, it gives you shiny mew....
@@Victor-i7v1x If you're talking about Pokemon Go, there are still other tasks people have to do and not everyone can do that.
Dude huge congrats! This is one of the most insane hunts I’ve ever seen
It was one of the last real hunts I did!!! Glad you enjoyed the video
Sonic Adventure 2 is SUCH a good game; underrated classic
Its a GOATED game
Congrats on the shiny mew!! Shiny mew is my absolute fav mon and I've been hunting on my own save for a while now and videos like these give me hope of someday finding it, so thanks for making this!!
You got this keep going!
Not that it matters at this point but if Mew transforms it takes the catch rate of whatever it turns into so you can make the capture trivially easy
No way!!
The reason I thought about that is cause I lowkey panicked when it transformed into Blaziken cause the starters have generally odd capture rates due to the fact that you never catch them, so I was like "oh boy, that could have been a big mistake", glad it worked out though!
This hunt was the whole reason game nights became a staple of the LewaFG channel
True!!
Pokémon Go players dancin’. This game is awesome for rare shinies.
I find this very funny because you can actually catch shiny mew in Pokémon go for only 5 bucks and then transport to it Pokémon home. However the dedication to catching shiny mew from a game boy advanced is impressive
The sprite is the one that goes the craziest!
Always great to see a third gen hunt. If you ever wanted to go insane and get a potentially more rare shiny mew, it is possible to get shiny mew without external cheating device in generation one. And if you want a one of a kind, you could do it not on the virtual console but the gameboy color. There are very few who hunt in gen one and even less even attempt a physical cartridge hunt.
A gen 1 hunt would be crazy!!
@@LewaPlaysit’s actually so much easier than this was haha. Took me about a month to play through the story to get to the point to alter the Mew. I used the virtual 3ds version so he’s transferred up to Home now. My favorite catch forsure.
this was an amazing video homie!!! the story has fully been told
Appreciate it!!
The rarest is actually a Shiny Petal Dance Meowth (look it up) that I'm likely the only owner of. It comes from a 2003 In Person Egg event like the Wish Chansey.
Man, I remember going through this hunt! It was an amazing moment being there live and seeing you get your Mew. Congrats, Lewa!
thats insane! glad that you were part of that journey!
I was just glad to be a part of one of the few viewers during those shiny hunt days
Facts!!! This video was for all of you guys
Fun watch, great editing! congrats on the find :)
Glad you enjoyed it! Shout out to my editor lol
I did this hunt recently and it’s the most magical hunt I’ve ever done in my life. I somehow got it in 7 runaways 😅 but still, I love this hunt! Congrats!
Thank you!!
Shiny mews: are rare
*Meanwhile Pokémon go giving them out for free💀*
Nah, they're selling them for actual money.
If you think about it, completely legit shiny Mew (without using any cheats, glitches or hacks) IS the rarest Pokémon you can have in Pokemon HOME. Let´s look at it. It has to be mythical, because for every other one you can just SR. So, how does it fare?
Mew - only available 2 times, and for limited time, once in Emerald and at Japan only at that, and twice in GO, where you have to not only pay actual money, but also complete the research, which isn´t exactly easy. And even then, a lot of GO players don´t play mainline games, so they don´t have Pokemon HOME to transfer it into
Celebi - you can get it from Colosseum Bonus disc and SR for it in VC Crystal, plus there is also free research for pokemon GO
Deoxys - similarly to the Mew, it had only one Emerald japanese event, and was available in GO for limited time. The difference is that it was in raids, no research or real money required, and you could catch multiples
Jirachi - he is still available from Colosseum bonus disc, which you can still buy and SR for it
Manaphy - is still available in Pokemon Ranger, and altough the SR process IS very convoluted, you can get it whenever you want with enough patience
Darkrai/Shaymin - both had online events where you could simply download their respective tickets via wi-fi, and it was available worldwide, both in DPP AND BDSP
Arceus - simply finish Legends:Arceus and you can SR for it
Gen 5, 6 and 7 mythicals were never available shiny
Zarude was never released as shiny
Zeraora was one time released as shiny, but it was worldwide and easy to get - you simply had to log in to Pokemon Home and you got it automaticaly
Pecharunt of course wasn´t so far available as shiny
So, I think from all of them, shiny Mew is the rarest shiny to have in your Pokemon Home collection
@@Ana.Forlin And don´t forget only for a VERY limited time, AND you have to complete the research tasks, which are pain in the a** (especially completing the Kanto dex).
It was the craziest shit when I got the notification. Wish you were streaming when this happened, hehe
Great video, dawg!
Thank you!
15,847 resets in. Scrolls by Masterball. "Okay dive balls"
wot
You know I had to do it to them
laughs in 8f
Now wait until you hear about the egg hunt for Shiny Manaphy 😁
I just got a shiny mew on Brilliant Diamond. I traded it for a Charmander a while back and didn't even realize it was shiny mew til today!!! Idk if the dude who traded me realized or not but I'm sooooo juiced!!!! I never hunt shiny pokemon either and it's my first shiny as well!! I've been training I'm Ike crazy got him to level 71 already lol.
You earned a sub with those dive balls, now thats perfection, peak of content, amazing journey!
Welcome aboard!
there were literally SEVERAL DOZEN shinies available in GO, maybe even a couple hundred, at the time LGPE released.
I was talking about right when Go released!
Fun fact: there have been two times that you could get a shiny mew in Pokémon go for 5.99 USD
Purple shinies are where it's at
Purple shinies are clean!!!
Congrats on Mew! Finally got mime two weeks ago. Although, I feel like Manaphy or Wishmaker Jirachi is rarer
Got mine roughly nine days ago in an unusually short amount of time. My 1st shiny on that file of emerald, just a couple hundred RA's. Deoxys hasn't been so easy, currently 1,000 RA's on Deoxys now which is a good amount more tedious forsure. Tbh I couldn't imagine doing manaphy tho😱
hypothetically you could also grab the ticket with some memory manipulation but a gameshark is,,, way easier lmao
True!
Prior to Crystal, you will not catch a Shiny Celebi EXCEPT you must catch a Shiny Mew or Shiny Ditto and use Transform.
And here I thought the 8F method in Red/Blue was hard. XD thats the easy method.
Does the emerald rng even matter since you can just run away from mew and then leave and reenter the forest and encounter it unlimited times?
Congrates. I also did a shiny hunt for mew on emerald. Found it today. Took 3 months.
Lets go!!! Shiny mew family
Omg this was such a good story and you’re good at telling it. Love your energy and great video 🔥
Thank you so much!!
Dude could of brought a Japanese Emerald and a event cart to get a legit one instead he’s got a illegal new
Have a shiny in pokemon emerald gang rise up
Facts
Ayy!!! Got my own Mew in 1215 encounters and Deoxys in 447
First off, congrats that’s super cool. Second off, WHY IS THE REACTION AT THE 9 MINUTE MARK
I have a Shiny Mew from Emerald, I made him a Ribbon Master.
This video is starting to inspire me dude
Lets go
Makes me want to go for Shiny Mew! Great video!
That's... Not the rarest shiny of all time actually...
For him it is
Which is…
@@uthoughtiwasfeelinumanaphy
@@pokeplayz6979no its two of the same exact spinda
@@TheRandallandsteveshow2 fair
Good video, btw you dont need the cheating device to access faraway island, you can use glitches and make your game believe you received the event back in the days, its called pokemon emerald code execution.
Oh yeah!!
Now get the rare shiny manaphy from a pearl glitch 💀 I refuse
Heh, the memories 😂
Low key your underated
Hopefully not for long!
B L U E F E T U S R A T OMFG I AM DED! XD
I have a shiny mew in my pokemon home and I don't even know why
Pokémon Go Players wondering how shiny mew is rare
Can this shiny be transferred up to newer games, or is it blocked by cheat detection?
It can be!
I had a Faraway regular Mew, and it did not went through at the time of the Release of Bank. I don't know if they changed availability over time, but if you have a non-japanese Mew from Faraway island it should not go through. If it does then it was changed over time. But as far as I know Bank blocks after some criteria. Language and if it was an official Event. Everything else with Cartridge owners Finder will be blocked. It is not that bad. Btw, in Black and White you was unable to offer it in the GTS, but for some odd reason, I was trying to bid my second Faraway Mew with the Nickname Ninis from the Finder GFNONOP (from my 5 year old sisters cartridge) on someones Dialga for fun. I thought I would get an error message, but was surprised and butt hurt, when I found out, that it worked. So this guy named Erdick or something similar was extremely lucky.
@Aenir1992 I transferred my English shiny mew from a flash cart Emerald all the way up to Violet last month (December 2023)
Anyone else should be fine
why not just rng manipcin emerald lol feels easier than a GS
Its about the journey not the destination
Dude never owned a DS or 3DS? Wtf
Lucky
This is insane! Hey if you want a shiny hunt that rivals this, there's always the Pokemon Ranger Manaphy! I might hunt that someday but probably not.
Also unfortunately your shiny Mew can't be transferred to newer games without modification with the Pokemon itself via PKHEX or something since the Old Sea Map was never distributed to non-Japanese copies. I'm sure there's a guide out there if you wanted to do that tho
Manaphy would be an insane hunt!
i left a comment on sonniks mew video asking if it was transferrable to pokemon home. he really really insisted that it wasn't so i hunted it myself and it went through to home so I beat my kanto living dex. not sure why he insisted so hard that I couldn't do it the weirdo
Now get shiny jirachi🤓
You started your hunt on January 6th, 2021? Huh, convenient alibi.
You're click bait. This isnt the rarest, and you cheated. Wack!
I wouldnt say the rarest. But still a rough hunt.
Shiny jirachi or manaphy definitely takes the cake.
True!!
I wouldn´t say it. Let´s look at it. If you wanna have a shiny mythical in HOME, I think Mew IS still the rarest. Why?
Mew - only available 3 times, once in Japan (old sea map event), twice in GO for real world money and for very limited time, only one per account, and let´s not forget the research tasks aren´t easy. Also, many GO players don´t play mainline games, so they won´t transfer their Mew to HOME
Celebi - you can SR for it now in VC Crystal, and there is also research in Go
Jirachi - you can get it from Colosseum Bonus disc, which you can get even now, so technicaly you can get it whenever you want, plus there was research for it in GO
Deoxys - one event similar to Mew, but in GO was available in raids, which required no money, no completing research and you could catch multiple
Darkrai - wi-fi event for the acces to NewMoon island both in og DP and BDSP, available worldwide
Shaimin - the same as Darkrai, but also there was research for it in GO
Manaphy - it is still available in Pokemon Ranger, yes, the SR is kinda convoluted in this one, but you can get it whenever you want
Arceus - just complete Legends:Arceus and you can SR for it in BDSP
Zeraora - was given only once, but all you needed to do was to log into Pokemon Home
Other mythicals weren´t released as shiny yet
So I would say if you want completely and 100% legitimate shiny, then Mew IS still the rarest one.
@@veronikamajerova4564 yeah no, you need to spend thousands of dollars for a shiny manaphy and hundreds to even start the jirachi hunt
Loved the story telling in this video!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
There is a rarer shiny.
It’s manaphy as the only game you can get a shiny of it is in Pokémon Ranger you get the manaphy as an egg you get at the VERY end of the end game of Pokémon ranger (you get one per save file). I don’t blame you for not knowing of this since Pokémon ranger is a spin off game.
I know about the manaphy hunt! That one is definitely a tough one
Interesting seeing a person go from Pokemon Go to the traditional Pokemon games.
Im one of those dudes they got me!
I guess he didn't know that pokemon go released shiny mew on February 21st 2021 it could have saved him a lot of time if he just got it that way
I need it in sprite form
And that shiny new prob even harder
@@daofficerofthenoodles7504tbf kinda yea, it takes people months to finish the quest for it lmfao
Meanwhile you can transfer shiny mew from go so.....
Not the same
My favorite singer (Mon Laferte) Made a song Called Mew Shiny, isn't a pokemon song but she called the song mew Shiny because she was talking about a very special person
Neta we?
@@CoyoteMadrigal Si.
One of the darkest times of the LewaPlays/LewaFG Timeline
Lmao it was a good time though
I wish my GameStop's sold retro games, especially pokemon Gameboy advance games ❤
I got a japanese shiny mew and also got my own mew from Emerald that I caught in 2007 so yeah nice vid
Congratulations I caught that shiny years ago it's the prize of my collection along with my shiny zorua and hisui zorua collection
I do have my shiny mew.
Nearly perfect IV's too.

There's a way to do this without a cheating device using ACE
I got one in sun and moon that is legit and i got it from a link trade.
That is awesome. A hunt well deserved. I’m hunting for shiny Magneton right now as I watch this, my favorite Pokémon. Wish me luck!
Good luck!!
I think the hardest shiny in the entire series is shiny Manaphy. The only way to get it legit is to get far enough into a spinoff game called Pokemon Ranger to get an egg that contains Manaphy, transfer that egg to a mainline game, and then trade that egg within the mainline game to a different mainline game to avoid the shiny lock.
And you can only get one egg per Pokemon Ranger cartridge. Resetting your save data will not get you another Manaphy.
That hunt is one of the most insane hunts ever
Wait till he learns about shiny manaphy
YES SIRRRRR
Goku brought you shiny luck
I'm so nervous to try this,. because of the emerald RNG problem, didn't that worry you?
It worried me a lot!
I have 6 shiny Mews! XD
jan 6 is my birthday LOL
Dang I remember watching this journey back when it was streamed, those were some good days
It feels like forever ago now!
So your favorite cool is blue. You can use a blue shiny in the rainbow team nuzlock
Hmmmm
Love the Sonic Adventure DX music in the background.
Funny enough, I had this song pop up in my head about 2 weeks ago.
Btw, would you open to doing a Sonic Adventure gameplay for us on your channel? I think it would be fun to see another gameplay.
SO! I am working on a video for another channel that might just make you happy
@@LewaPlays 🫨🫨🫨 Ooo i’ll stay tune for sure. What’s the other channel?
Congratulations on getting Mew! I also hunt and caught shiny mew when x&y was new!
Shiny mew I named Blueberry is the reason I started to like shinyhunt and stop hacking shinys. I hack shiny for fun and I never understand the interest in legitshiny thinking it's not worth all the times to find one. Seriously my dumb teenage self found a shiny wild pidgey before the first gym in firered and didn't have it now because I started a new game. 🤦
That when playing pokemon x I finally started to get interest in finding legit shiny after watching pokeTubers founding a shiny Rayquaza from soulsilver , So I decided to do one as well.
So the first shiny I hunt is Mew since it's my favorite mythical in childhood when watching Pokemon first movie. Thank goodness for my enjoyment of using cheating in the past I already got gameshark and got emerald from GameStop before it's become rare.
So I started my hunt, I also never turned off my gba because emerald's time battery runs dry.
I don't know how lucky when encounter later shiny mew over 3 hours! I was so shocked and excited to find it so soon that's when I fully understand the joy of shiny hunting!
I caught blueberry in a luxuryball and it becomes my most rarest and favorite shiny. After that I shiny hunt Ho-oh it took 10hr and lugia for 5 days. I send it all to pokemon x so happy at my success!
Sadly tragic happens when one of pokemon X random glitches happens causing my saves to get corrupted causes me to lose everything. Losing them hurt so much since my treasured Pokemons I got were with me since the beginning of gen 3 to 5 especially the shadow pokemons I got from GameCube, all the event pokemons , shiny pokemons and blueberry all gone because of that cursed glitch.
I was gonna quit finding legit rare pokemon because why care about if one of the future pokemon games bugs destroy all your hard work getting them.😢
After all that lost I decided to push forward and continue playing pokemon again when oras release. After enough healing I decided to once again shiny hunt. When I got a shiny female treeco at my starter in my alpha sapphireit gave me the courage to continues shiny hunting again.
After beating the game and get a shiny mesprit I decided to go back shiny hunting my favorite shiny mew again and in my shock I found it in over one hour! After reclaimed Blueberry in a luxuryball I decided to reclaimed all the available shiny legendarys except deoxy since the srs for it doesn't work no more since the all my other pokemon gba games time battery died.
So today I got the reclaim shinys and shadow pokemons in pokemon home switch now. Sadly not every past events pokemon.
I got 2 shiny mews now planning on shiny hunt a third and get another shiny Mew and shiny celebi from crystal vr since Nintendo announced pokemon bank is gonna to go down soon.
I'm glad I didn't gave up that day and now I have favorite shiny mew Blueberry in my team for the pokemon sv dlc, Shiny hunting is so fun until shinylocks ruins it. I miss shiny hunting every catchable legendarys. But hopefully in the future gamefreak lighten up the shinylocks and bring mystical in game without the needs of mystery gifts items but I doubt it.
Sorry for my long writing but I wish I record every shiny I encountered in the past but I'm too shy and private person to do videos. But I will forever cherish these memories.😌
Thats so awesome you were able to reclaim mew! I cant believe how it would feel to lose all my shiny hunting progress!!
@@LewaPlays It's terrible a feeling, So much that I still have trauma losing them. I didn't send any pokemon from oras to x in my replay. I replayed it to reclaim pokemons and available events and quickly removed them to pokemon bank. I enjoyed playing x and had such a fun time in that game with a 999 hr playtime but can't enjoy it any more because of that incident.😞
@@LewaPlays Yes I finally found my third shiny Mew and crystal celebi now All It's left is emerald deoxys.. oh boy this going to be tough.
Oh I want to know do you want a shiny timid celebi I hunt from crystal? The cool thing is I can clone them by doing a pc glitch in crystal and when I send them in bank they have different ivs and characteristics to not get them caught being clones in home.
WHAT?!?!! YOU MEAN YOU CAUGHT A SHINY MANAPHY???
Or safari zone chansey? Oh… it’s just a emerald mew, not that rare
Bro went insane over da silli blue cat
Not me who spent almost $500 in total to shiny hunt the sleepy wishing star (talking about Jirachi from the Pokémon Colosseum bonus disc)
@@LatinGiudo817 I haven’t really hunted any shiny that rare with the only one I really got was shiny geodude in emerlad
its in english, so not legitimate
buy a japanese emerald for less than $60
