Call me old fashioned but I miss the old days when shit like this would take decades to discover and even then it would be shrouded in doubt and mystery.

Kids today just hop on youtube and know all the secrets in a short 40 minute video full of ads sponsorships and fillers.

Mew was also given out free at Ninendo events.
