  • Hey folks.

    I was looking for a Mew on GTS just for fun and what happened? There was shown a Gyarados which name was Mew. The offerer wanted another Gyarados for it so I tried trading for it...but everytime it said: Unfortunately it was traded to another trainer.
    But this "Mew" is still there and not traded.

    Can anyone explain this to me? Oo

    The GTS server has probaly not refreshed yet, This is probaly caused by too many people connecting at one time or the OT of the "Mew" has a bad internet connection.

  • as Shiny Pichu said, its because the server hasn't refreshed yet. or you just found it right when it was traded. yes, it was a Mew at one point in time, but what they were looking for was a Gyardos, so that just means that they got what they wanted and its no longer available (but you think it would go right away, wouldn't you? lol).

    If you think a Gyrados named Mew is gonna screw up your game you should just quit pokemon.

  • It may be a transform glitch. As you know, Mew knows transform, in the japanese version, unless I'm massively mistaken, Ditto/Mew/Smeargle retain their look and moveset after fainting while under effects of transform until the next battle they take place in...

    thats not ture. the real reason is because the person who submitted it Hadn't gone online to get the trade over

    untill that person logs in to get it it will always say that
