How to Recruit Mew
Recruitment Not Guaranteed
Unlike other Legendary Pokemon, Mew is not a guaranteed recruit after being defeated. It's entirely possible that it will not join your team even after you defeat it.
Use Friend Bow to Increase Chance of Recruiting
A Friend Bow will increase the chance of recruiting Pokemon into your team. Have the leader of your party hold on to it when you find Mew in the dungeon then with the same Pokemon, defeat it to increase the chances of getting it!
