Learn More About The Mew Drawing

Mew is a catlike psychic-type Pokémon of Generation 1. Mew debuted in the 1998 film Pokémon: The First Movie, also called Mewtwo Strikes Back.

Though mammalian in form, Mew has the ability to float or move freely in both air and water.

Mew is not known to “evolve,” or grow, into any other type of Pokémon. Its rival Mewtwo was cloned from one of Mew’s eyelashes.

What are Pokémon? These fantastic creatures, ranging from the cute to the ferocious, were the brainchild of Satoshi Tajiri.

The inspiration for these “pocket monsters” arose from Tajiri’s childhood hobby of insect collecting.

The first Pokémon video game was created for use with the Game Boy system in 1996. Its success in Japan quickly spread throughout the world, and a cartoon series, card game, and other merchandise soon followed.

In the game, Pokémon “trainers” collect the animals from the wild, tame them, and prepare them to battle other Pokémon.

Uniquely, the Pokémon can be stored in small containers called pokéballs and brought forth at will, similar to the concept of a genie in a lamp.

As a legendary Pokémon, Mew is rarely seen, both in the games and in the animated series. It is said that Mew’s DNA contains that of every other Pokémon, giving it the unique ability to learn any fighting move.

Mew can also make itself invisible, adding to its mystique. It only reveals itself to those who are “pure in heart.”

Would you like to draw an adorable Mew? You can when you train hard with the help of this simple, step-by-step drawing tutorial.

All you will need is a sheet of paper, a pencil, and an eraser. You may wish to color your finished drawing.
