Pokemon Legends
Mew
Mew, the creator of life. This Pokemon is the most famous, yet, the most elusive. There have been only 3 reported sightings of it in the past century.
Of all legendaries, this is also one of the most wanted. People who have heard the Pokemopolis Legend of the Beginning have an instant desire to have one of the Creator Trio, but none have succeeded yet.
Before there was time, space, even life, all there was were rocks.
These rocks were soon to become the very earth itself, and the other planets.
In a flash of light, there appeared Celebi, Protector of Time, Jirachi, the Surveyor of Space, and Mew, the Creator of Life. Using Celebi, they had time-travelled from the future, in order to begin the world they lived in.
Jirachi, the Surveyor of Space, used her influence over rocks and metal to bring together the great rocks and fuse them together, to create the Earth.
Celebi, the Protector of Time, set in motion the Wheel of Time, so that all may age and mature.
And Mew, using the power in its very cells, created life itself. Using his power, Mew created the oceans and lakes, the forests, the volcanos, and the very first life-forms.
The Creator Trio, their tasks complete, fashioned a secret hideout for themselves, hiding themselves away from most life-forms. Mew hid itself beneath the sea, coming out only to stop the great battles of the legendaries, and to stop any danger that might threaten the earth's inhabitants and existence.
Celebi hid itself in the vast forests of Johto, where it stayed, travelling through time at will and making sure that no Pokemon twist the Time-lines of the Universe,
And Jirachi hid itself inside of a comet, one that passes only once every thousand years, looking after the deep recesses of Space. It sleeps every day of that thousand years, but awakens for one week, before sleeping again.
Mew has still rarely been seen. Most Mew sightings have been dismissed, and most also seem to have come from the deep jungles of Janera, where it happened, that a team of Scientists found Mew DNA.
Mew also founded the Wings of Council, the board of legendary bird Pokemon who would meet together every year and discuss the fate of the world.
Mew is the descendant of every Pokemon in the world. As a result, Mew can learn any attack in the world, just by watching the attack being performed. Mew can also go invisible at will, which also explains why it has been seen so few times. It is very intelligent, and also, fun loving. Those that have had the opportunity to meet Mew have said that it played several games with the individual, before flying away at the slightest sign of another human.
Sneaking up on Mew would be an incredibly hard, and foolish thing to do. Mew contains powers we do not know, and it is able to sense the brain-waves of all humans, but the most skilled Psychics. The only Pokemon it is unable to sense are Dark Types and Ghost types.
A legend from Pokemopolis gives advice on Mew:
This legendary should not be harmed. Should it choose to play, feel honoured. Should it choose to fight, run. Should it choose to run, let it. If this Pokemon is prevented from journeying around the world, disaster will soon follow.
