You've joined millions of Pokemon GO players around the world in working on 7 days of Special Research tasks in preparation for finally catching Mew. But which moveset should you be hoping for?<\/p>\n

The latest update to Pokemon GO's GAME_MASTER file contained major changes to Mew's moves. In addition to Pound, Mew now has 12 more fast moves. And it has a whopping 24 charge moves. Multiply 12 x 24, and you get the total number of Mew's possible movesets: 312.<\/p>\n

You'll find a variety of opinions as to which moveset is the best. And for good reason. The answer depends on all sorts of factors, such as which Pokemon types you'll use it to battle against, the weather, how much damage your opponent will be doing to your Mew (the more damage it does, the faster Mew's charge move will be ready to go), and how much of Mew's charge will be left unused when the battle ends.<\/p>\n

So not everyone will agree with the table displayed below. But this is my opinion.
