Few Pokémon capture the imagination quite like Mew. The elusive #151, the Psychic-type Mythical Pokémon whispered about on playgrounds back in the Red & Blue days, holds a special mystique. Believed by scientists within the Pokémon world to contain the genetic blueprint of all Pokémon, Mew is often seen as the ancestor from which all others sprung. It’s known for its playful, curious nature, intelligence, and the incredible ability to learn almost any move – a trait reflected in its diverse TCG history.
While notoriously difficult to find in the original games (officially, anyway!), Mew has made numerous appearances in the Pokémon Trading Card Game, often as a highly sought-after prize. Fun fact: viewers of the original Japanese Pokémon anime might have caught their very first glimpse of Mew fleetingly in the opening sequence way back when it first aired in April 1997!
In the TCG, Mew cards have taken many forms. Early promotional cards like the iconic Ancient Mew (tied to the first pokémon movies) are purely collectible, while others shaped competitive play.
Cards like Mew ex from EX Legend Maker allowed players to use attacks from any Pokémon in play (yours or your opponent’s!), leading to complex ‘Mew Lock’ strategies. Mew Prime (HS Triumphant) enabled evolution Pokémon to be played as Basics, creating unique deck possibilities. More recently, Mew VMAX dominated the Standard format with its Fusion Strike engine.
Here at We Love Collectibles, we appreciate this mythical marvel, and we’ve gathered a selection of Mew-centric items currently available, including some exciting recent arrivals.
Mew Shining Bright:
TCG Single Cards
Mew has graced many Pokémon cards, often with stunning artwork. We currently have these individual Mew cards available online:
- Mew ex 193/165 (Pokémon 151): £30.00
- Mew ex 216/091 (Paldean Fates): £20.00
Shiny Pokémon are always a treat, and this card features Mew in its rare, alternate blue coloration. This Shiny Rare card from the Paldean Fates expansion offers a different take on the Mew ex mechanic, allowing it to draw cards until you have three in hand once per turn. A must-have for shiny hunters and Mew fans alike. - Mew VMAX 268/264 (Fusion Strike): £40.00
Entering the Sword & Shield era, Mew VMAX became a competitive powerhouse. The VMAX mechanic involves evolving a Pokémon V into a giant, super-powered version.
Mew VMAX 269/264 (Fusion Strike): £130.00
The Alternate Art Secret Rare Mew VMAX from Fusion Strike, often considered one of three top chase cards of the set. This version features a unique perspective and art style, making it highly desirable for collectors valuing rarity and distinct artwork. Mew VMAX decks, utilising the Fusion Strike engine, were dominant forces in the standard format for a long time.
Mew ex – Scarlet & Violet Black Star Promos – 53/165: £42.00
Recent Arrivals:
Fusion Strike & Pokémon 151
Speaking of Fusion Strike, Mew V and Mew VMAX were the poster Pokémon for this expansion, which introduced the Fusion Strike battle style – rewarding players for having multiple Pokémon with this style in play. If you missed out before, we’ve recently had some exciting products arrive featuring this Mew-centric set:
Pokémon TCG Fusion Strike Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box: £220.00
Part of our latest stock intake, this is the premium version, exclusive originally to the Pokémon Center. It features stunning Mew artwork on the box, sleeves, and accessories. Crucially, it contains 10 Fusion Strike booster packs (two more than the standard ETB), 65 Mew card sleeves, Energy cards, dice, markers, guides, an exclusive deck box, and a code card. A fantastic collector’s piece for fans of the set or Mew itself.
Pokémon TCG Fusion Strike Booster Pack: £9.00
Fancy trying your luck? We have a limited number of individual Fusion Strike booster packs left. Will you pull one of the incredible Mew VMAX alternate arts, or perhaps the sought-after Gengar VMAX alt art?
Restock Alert: Pokémon 151 Booster Bundle
Alongside the Fusion Strike ETB, we’ve also managed to restock the popular Pokémon 151 Booster Bundle! This set, focused entirely on the original Kanto Pokémon, was incredibly popular, and the Booster Bundle (containing 6 booster packs) is a great way to get more chances at pulling favourites like the Mew ex Special Illustration Rare mentioned above.
Please note: These bundles are expected to sell quickly and may primarily be available in our physical store in Westwood Business Park rather than online. Be sure to visit us in Margate to grab one! While you’re here, check out our singles binders – we have plenty of individual cards from the Pokémon 151 set available too.
