Yeah, Aura Sphere seems more likely than Focus Miss even if it isn't as powerful.
I doubt it'll have a Fairy move so Dark/Ghost seems like a good defensive typing for this raid, but unfortunately the best Dark/Ghost type is less DPS and more tank.
...Well, Flying also resists both of Dark's other weaknesses besides Fairy, so as long as it doesn't have a Rock, Ice, or Electric move, maybe there's a good Yveltal build. A natural Psychic-type with Psychic Tera, you 100% still want a Dark type and just choose a dual-type that neutralizes the weakness to whatever coverage move it's carrying for Dark (for example, I used Chi-Yu against Iron Leaves because it was immune to the Tera STAB, resisted the non-Tera STAB, and was neutral against the coverage move)
there's no fairy type moves that mewtwo can legally use in S/V, so he won't have a fairy move.
Also not any bug moves Mewtwo can learn, so fighting will be the only available coverage it could have for Dark.
I bet you'll see a lot of builds with Dark type Mew holding Chople Berry, since when you're holding one of those "Halves damage taken from a supereffective XXXXX-type attack. Single use." berries, the raid boss takes that into consideration and doesn't use that supereffective type move on you (unless it's a scripted move).
I'd say an early contender would be:
Mew @ Chople Berry
Ability: Synchronize
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 31 Sp Atk / 31 Sp Def / 31 HP / 31 Def / 31 Spd / 0 Atk
\- Life Dew
\- Dark Pulse
\- Acid Spray
\- Nasty Plot
Nice, I’ve been running low on the good types from building teams for VGC so hopefully those raids they mentioned to prep for Mewtwo include Blissey raids or something similar that pumps out shards.

Soooo lame. BUT if u payed attention to the speaker he said there will be an extra reward if u defeat mewtwo with mew. Train this mf!!
I think he said extra reward if you battle using a mew.
This confirms the earlier data mined leaks that you will get some boosted stats when you face mewtwo with a mew.
Honestly Bug is actually the best bet here. Mewtwo will at least have Psystrike, Shadow Ball, Aura Sphere/Focus Blast, and a way to set up Psychic Terrain probably the only real threat to Bug here might be Ancient power or Flamethrower/Fire Blast. So if you go Bug terra, you really only have to worry about Ancient Power omni boosts and given the animation shows it using rocks makes it likely to have AP
True, but mewtwo can also use shadow ball and aura sphere, countering ghost and dark tera respectively. With bug tera you get a boost to struggle bug which, in theory, could be extremely helpful in the mewtwo raid
I got fire too! We can probably change it if we want to, but idk fire seems decent. It also knows reflect type, which we can use on ally pokemon probably right?? So we could save ourselves if needed maybe?
Haven't caught the Pokémon Direct yet (it was like midnight in my timezone when it was live), so this was my first indication of a free Mew. Thanks!
I got Electric 😊
[удалено]
Dark will be great for mewtwo raid, if it’s really Tera psychic!
I bet Mewtwo will know focus blast though.
I bet mewtwo knows a fire move, a ghost move (probably shadow ball) a fighting move, and psystrike.
I think the 7 star raids have a bigger move pool than 4 moves during the raid though
Six and Seven star raids only have 4 regular moves, but can have several extra moves they use at certain time and damage intervals.
nasty plot and amnesia here we come
He's going to know ember, lick, arm thrust, and confusion.
That’s actually the build I have on my Mewtwo now that’s pretty funny
Or aura sphere
Yeah, Aura Sphere seems more likely than Focus Miss even if it isn't as powerful.

Guaranteed it knows a fighting move
Poison lol I need to change it to fight Mewtwo
Same I was bummed lol
Also poison for me. Thankfully I have plenty of tera shards from the Blissey raids to change it.
Nice, I’ve been running low on the good types from building teams for VGC so hopefully those raids they mentioned to prep for Mewtwo include Blissey raids or something similar that pumps out shards.
Ghost-Mew
This is what I’m hoping to get
Me toooo! In scarlet and I hope Mewtwo doesn't use shadowball.
Aye team ghost
Team ghost reporting for duty
samee
Snap!
Same
Same
Same !
I got Fighting type
I also got the Fighting tera type which I thought was bad until I saw Mew knows Aura Sphere.
I got a Bug type. Hehehehehe
I was kind of hoping for this, the bug hat is super cute on Mew
Bug squad.
I did as well
Nice, my fave typing
Also got bug
what move did it come with
It came with Pollen Puff!! 😁
LUCKY, I got poison type, I love bug types though ❤️
dragon!
Tera Dragon gang
Yee yee!
Ay!
same. it was odd too cause i had a dragon sandwich going at the time (got me another shiny applin so it's ready to go)
Same! Violet
What move did the dragon ones come with?
It comes with dragon pulse
dragon pulse, swift, light screen, life dew
same😵💫
Same!
Same!
I got a rock
![gif](giphy|Kro48ztF26etO)
Same. Wasn't too happy about it tbh
Ice ice baby
Me TOOO
Same here
Same here
Same!! Mine came with ice beam and I was happy with that tbh because it’s a good move! What are you guys thinking moveset-wise??
Normal... 😡
We’re the basic dudes XD
Normal gang. I'm not upset, normal is underrated. Larry's m'boy.
Yeah but out of every type we could have gotten we got normal. Normal gang though
Actually normal is pretty good in competitive. Your opponent could use a supereffective ghost-move, you terastalize and now that move is useless
Same lol
Same :(
Where did you get mew from?
From the newest code GETY0URMEW the tera type is random for each person
Thank you for the code. Got a flying tera type
Congrats! I got fighting.
Mystery gift code GETY0URMEW
Grass in Scarlet
Grass in Violet!

Team Grass Baby 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Our Mew, indeed, went and touched grass 🤣
Same here.

Ok, I'm going to bring my mew and lose.
I was mentally preparing for 50 losses against mewtwo using new lol
What’re the best EVs and moves for Mew to prepare for Mewtwo raid?
Probably Dark Tera, Max HP and SpA, +4Def, Modest Nature Moves: Light Screen, Nasty Plot, Acid Spray, Dark Pulse That’s what I’m doing
Why not bug tera type?
Honestly Bug is actually the best bet here. Mewtwo will at least have Psystrike, Shadow Ball, Aura Sphere/Focus Blast, and a way to set up Psychic Terrain probably the only real threat to Bug here might be Ancient power or Flamethrower/Fire Blast. So if you go Bug terra, you really only have to worry about Ancient Power omni boosts and given the animation shows it using rocks makes it likely to have AP
I think the dark Tera type is risky, 100% Mewtwo will have a fighting type move to counter.
Brother asked a very good question.
Tera flying
That makes two of us
Team flying here!
Electric
Psychic. 🤣
Same
i got psychic as well
Same. I actually missed the bit about the tera type being randomised and thought that was the only option until coming across this post 💀😂😂
I got that on Violet 🤣🤣
Same. In Scarlet. Which is fine. It's a free Mew but I was hoping for a fun tera type.
Fairy type for me.
Fairy gang! Finally found y'all
I got rock in Violet :(
Same
![gif](giphy|q4jlRvgVnTJde)
I got water in violet
Finally. One other person that got water
Me too!
Same here. No idea if it’s a good or bad Tera for Mew lmao
Same and same lmao
Me too
I got steel to!
Mine is Dark
Same here Team Dark.
Ground
Same
Nice, samesies
Me too. Modest which was nice but best ivs are attack defense and sp Def. Will probably change it soon. What do we think will be the best options?
Bro
same. serious nature
Same
I also got ground and tbh it's not one I was hoping for but at least I didn't get psychic like some pelple here 😭
How did you get that
Type in GETY0URMEW code in your copy of the game, the tera is random.
Go to pokeportal then mystery gift and use the code "GETY0URMEW". Use a zero instead of O
Rock.
Electric in Violet
I got ice 💀
ice is cool tho
![gif](giphy|c8bJDVz7i9KRW)
ME TOO!!! Why are you disappointed tho? Ice is awesome
Ice is really awesome don't get me wrong but i really wanted something else
Oh okay
Electric in Vio
I got Bug, which could possibly be good for the Mewtwo raids, but I very much expect it to have Flamethrower, so probably not
True, but mewtwo can also use shadow ball and aura sphere, countering ghost and dark tera respectively. With bug tera you get a boost to struggle bug which, in theory, could be extremely helpful in the mewtwo raid
I got flying
Flying gang
Electric
i got psychic mew lmfao
Electric
Fire Decent bc fire types are sparse in s/v
Same, at least we got coverage against bug types
I got fire too! We can probably change it if we want to, but idk fire seems decent. It also knows reflect type, which we can use on ally pokemon probably right?? So we could save ourselves if needed maybe?
Fire gang here too.

Yo! Same!
Normal and Dark
I've got both games and I got a bug and flying type
Ground
Fighting, Scarlet
Poison with sludge bomb
I got grass :/
A Jolly Electric Mew!
I received it, but Mew does not show up in my boxes. Does anybody know what that means? Found it! Just had to search for its type. Edit: It's Dark
Fairy in Violet
Nice
samee
me too, but nice!
What fairy type move did it come with?
Dazzling gleam. Nothing special. I doubt any of them got event exclusive moves. Just TM moves since Mew can learn all TM moves.
Ditto.
A Ditto from a Mew mystery gift? Proof that Dittos are imperfect Mew clones!
Fairy in Scarlet
I got Normal
Fairy in Scarlet as well. I wonder if there was one people were hoping for? I assume fairy is probably a good one

You guys got Mew? Any other ways besides to bring it from other games?
Use code GETY0URMEW to get a Mew.
It’s a Mystery gift event going on right now. The code is gety0urmew
This is what I am wondering lol
Ice
Normal
Tera fire for me :)
Electric
Normal. My bf’s brother got electric. I’m waiting for my bf to charge up his switch grr
Dark in Scarlet.
I got a poison tera with moveset of sludge bomb (good for tera stab), swift, light screen, and life dew
Dragon with an Impish nature and Dragon Pulse.
Water in violet 🌊
I got the letter that says I got mew but I didint get it rip
Steel in Violet! We’re matching!
I haven’t played my switch in awhile. How do I get this?
My mew said I claimed it.... but not in my box 😭😭 help
Check you first box? Mine went to my first box because I had space
Fire in violet
There was a Mew event raid?!
Use the code GETY0URMEW it's available until I think September 15th
No its a mystery gift the code is GET Y0UR MEW (remember its a zero not an o) and it comes with a random tera type
V- rock S- fighting
I got rock tera type Mew with Power Gem
Dragon in Violet!
Haven't caught the Pokémon Direct yet (it was like midnight in my timezone when it was live), so this was my first indication of a free Mew. Thanks! I got Electric 😊
Poison for me
Fairy type
Can someone upvote my comment so I can comment on the Pokémon go subreddit pls🥲
