Man, where do you start with Mew? He's been my favorite for a long time now and I feel like I've only scratched the surface with what he is capable of.
Here's a set up I've used through all three tiers he's been allowed in. It's very niche and requires some team support in the way of entry hazards and maybe death to the spinner but if it gets going...
Mew@Leftovers
Trait: Synchronize
EV's: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spd
Bold Nature
-Gravity
-Dragon Tail
-Roar/Toxic/Thunder Wave/Earthquake
-Softboiled
Fairly simple strategy: get some hazards up and hopefully successfully defend them by taking out the spinner and get Mew in. Proceed to use Gravity so everything is hit by Spikes/Toxic Spikes and start to phase. I use Dragon Tail to deal a little damage while phasing to add to the hazard damage. Roar is there to ensure you can phase even if they put up a substitute but Toxic or Thunder Wave can be used to pass status along the way. Earthquake hits EVERYTHING under Gravity and surprisingly little is resistant to it (just grass and bug types). Softboiled because I it was his original healing move back in R/B/G/Y and to grant insta-healing.
Ev'd to give max bulk against physical attackers, not much thought put into it. You can change up the EV's to be faster or hit harder but I would definitely invest a good deal in bulk nonetheless as he's at -7 priority for at least 1 of his moves.
I've tried a similar concept but with restalk but he runs into 4 move slot syndrome bad. He wants gravity so you get the most out of your spikes but he needs to be able to have the best chance at phasing and with Gravity it drops to 1/3 with Sleep Talk...
Anyway, I am looking forward to see what else you guys can come up with for Mew as he's so versatile there so many things you can try with him and he'll do good at all of them.
