How to Catch Any Pok?mon
Now that you know how the trick works, you can use it to catch other Pok?mon. Fighting the Youngster will always result in a Mew encounter because his Slowpoke has a Special of 21 (15 in hex). But if you fight something else before returning to Route 8, it will change which Pok?mon you encounter.
Let's say you foolishly choose a starting Pok?mon other than Bulbasaur and want to make up for it. Bulbasaur's hex number is 99, which converts to 153 in decimal. Now, you could fight a wild Pok?mon with a Special of 153, but the only place to find that is on a Level 64 Chansey in the Unknown Dungeon, and those Chansey are quite rare. Worse, they only have a one-in-sixteen chance of having the right Special. Fortunately, there is a solution: Ditto's Transform, which copies the stats of the opponent.
This means that you can catch any Pok?mon in the game by following these steps:
Catch/raise a Pok?mon with the proper Special stat (153 for Bulbasaur). You can find a complete list of which decimal value is needed for each Pok?mon here.
Fly away from the Gambler battle.
Fight any trainer that can see you from a distance and walk up to you. (This is necessary to both unlock your Start button and trigger the Route 8 battle.)
Find a wild Ditto and let it Transform into your Pok?mon with the proper Special.
Beat the Ditto (or just run away) and immediately fly to Lavender Town without fighting anything else.
Enter Route 8, and Bulbasaur (or whatever) will appear.
Note that since only the least significant of the two Special bytes is used for this, you can also add 256 to the values listed above and use that Special to get the same Pok?mon. This is important because there are a few Pok?mon, such as Kangaskhan, whose identifying value is lower than the minimum Special that any Pok?mon can have. In Kangaskhan's case, you can find her by using a Special of 258 (2 + 256).
Also note that when you perform this trick, any trainers you fight after the Gambler will be "used up." Make sure you have enough unused trainers to catch all the Pok?mon you want! Fortunately, the Gambler can be used to initiate the trick an unlimited number of times.

P.S: I haven't tried this trick but i knowe that the mew trick works so this sounds like it may work!
