How to catch mew on Yellow, Red, Blue.  

This cheat has been tested and it works. You Don't need a gameshark, you don't need to trade.

First off they are some trainers you need to battle, if you have beaten all of them the code won't work.

This is a list of trainers. They must be able to see you from all the way across the screen.

Name  Route Specifics 
Gambler 8 Right before The house that leads into Saffron
Jr. Trainer 9 (rock tunnel) The one that says "I'm taking the ROCK TUNNEL to go to Lavender"
Youngster 11 The one towards the south
Fisherman 12 The second fisherman you see
Biker 17 (Cycling Road) Take the left path he's right next to it.
Swimmer 3 Beauty  Sea route 19 There are four trainers there look for them
Swimmer Beauty 2 Sea route 20 Three trainers
Swimmer 2 Sea route 21 There are two swimmers next to the land where the fishers are
Jr. Trainer 24 In the grass just left of the bridge 

If you have sadly beaten all of trainers above you can ether start a new game, or not get mew. (Note: if you have Pokemon Stadium, and a game pack you can transfer your Pokemon to the boxes there. Then when you start a new game transfer them back. That way you can keep all your old Pokemon.).

Here is how the cheat works

1. Train a Pokemon to where it's special stat is exactly 21 (you can use Calcium found at Celadon mart to help you out.). 

2. get a Pokemon with dig/escape rope, and a Pokemon with fly (in case you didn't know HM 2 fly can be obtained at route 16 just above Cycling Road.).

3. Let's recap, your going to need a Pokemon with fly, a/an Pokemon with dig/escape rope, a Pokemon with a special stat of exactly 21, an empty spot in your party/box, a lot of balls (mew is easy to catch but it's better to play it safe.).   

4. Go to one of the Trainers mentioned above to where there barley off the screen . Save here. (Don't battle them, if you do restart.)

 example
       _______________
      |                                         |
   t |                                        p|
      |                                 |
      |_______________|

|
| =screen ends,  p=Player, t=trainer
|
|

5. Now as you take that one step quickly press start. The start menu should pop up before the see you if it doesn't restart, it may take a few tries.

6. Fly to a Place with a trainer you haven't battle (any trainer). The trainer you chose mentioned above should see you just as your flying.

7. Your start menu should now be disabled. Don't talk to anyone. Go to the trainer, not to were your right in front of the trainer or your game will freeze. Just be a few spaces away.

8. They should battle you, win. Your start menu should now be working again. 

9. Fly to a place with dittos (If your using yellow the only place is the room in cinnabar were you get the key to Blaine's Gym.). 

10. When you fight ditto switch to the Pokemon with the 21 special stat (or just attack if you already have him out.). After ditto transforms into the 21 stat Pokemon you can ether finish the battle or just run away.

11. fly/dig/escape rope your way out before you run into any Pokemon

12. Go to the route with the trainer you flew away from (don't talk to anyone, or get in a battle, or run into wild Pokemon.). Your start menu should instantly pop up, when you close it mew should appear. It's on level 7 so it shouldn't be that hard to catch. Remember, it's weak, don't attack it with high level Pokemon, and don't risk a critical.
