Mew and Mewtwo heading to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
Two old-school Pokémon will make their way to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
Announced at today’s Pokémon Presents, Mew and Mewtwo will be available in the game. Starting today, players can grab Mew for free with the password GETY0URMEW in the Mystery Gift menu. Mew will be available until September 18 at 7:59 a.m. PDT. Mewtwo will be available during a special Tera Raid Battle event from August 31 at 5:00 p.m. PDT through September 17 at 4:59 p.m. PDT. During this event, players can battle and catch a Mewtwo with the Mightiest Mark.
Once mainly obtainable through glitches in Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow, Mew has become one of the most beloved Pokémon from the First Generation. As one of the strongest Pokémon in the franchise, Mewtwo has been a playable character in the Super Smash Bros series and Pokkén Tournament.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet has sold over 22 million copies since being released last November. A two-part DLC pack will be released this year with The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 1: The Teal Mask arriving on September 13. The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2: The Indigo Disk will be released later this year.
