Given how great mew's move pool is, and the amazing stats she has, why does everyone just seem to run it as a stall mon? Is a sweeping mew completely unviable?

Also mew thread

plz no crabhammer

I'll say it once, I'll say it again:

Mew can learn any moves that Move Tutors, TMs/HMs/, and Metronome/Mimic/Transform will allow.

Somebody get the gas, we've got another one...

Timid Mew with Nasty Plot + a good mix of special moves is one way you can look at it

So can Ditto. BTFO.

>>26793720
I guess it's a kind of "jack of all trades, master of none" situation. It can do support well, though.

People only use the stall sets because they're uncreative fucks. Mew can fill almost any role a team needs, just not quite as well as more specialized pokemon. Here are a few examples of other viable mews, although the physical one isn't that great.

Fast Sweep Mew (Mew) @ Life Orb
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Nasty Plot

- Fire Blast

Bulky Sweep Mew (Mew) @ Leftovers
Ability: Synchronize
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk

They are not used because they are not viable in OU. Those sets are outclassed by other mons.

Namely Gardevoir for special sweepers and Medicham outclasses physical sets. You use Mew for his amazing movepool, his niche in OU is Will O Wisp.

Ask Smogon.

You want a sweeping Mew? Give it a 100 BP physical water move. Then it will be viable.
>>
>>26795162
Literally what difference does 10 BP make from Aqua Tail

>>26793720
Also no, it's not unviable, but it's not an optimal use of Mew either, at least in higher tiers. If you want to use Mew as some sweeper, chances are there's something out there with better typing, speed, bulk, and battle results.
