What do the attacks on Mew ex 53 cost, and what do they hit for?

Every attack printed on the card, with the Energy it asks for.

Genome Hacking	3 Colorless	3	—	—	Choose 1 of your opponent's Active Pokémon's attacks and use it as this attack.

This card has no retreat cost at all, so it can leave the active spot without discarding any Energy — the only limit is that retreating happens once a turn.

The Energy this attack asks a deck to attach before it can be used, drawn as the symbols printed on the card.

One Energy card attaches per turn, so the number of symbols is also the number of turns the attack waits.

What Mew ex 53 does without attacking

Mew ex 53 carries 1 printed effect that work outside the attack step, so it can matter on a turn the card never attacks.

Printed effects

Capped at once a turn

1 of 1

Read from the printed text quoted below, not counted anywhere else.

Restart — Ability · once a turn

Once during your turn, you may draw cards until you have 3 cards in your hand.

Quoted from the card face. The label after the dash is how the card itself names the effect.

Why this sits apart from the attacks

An attack costs Energy and ends your turn. What is printed above does neither — it is available while the card is in play, so it is a different kind of cost to a deck. Attack costs are in the section above.

Restart can only be used once a turn

The words once during your turn are printed in it, which caps it at one use per turn on that one card. Two copies of the card in play are two separate Pokémon, so each carries its own use.

Back to summary

Is Mew ex 53 strong for a ex card?

ex cards are built large to begin with, so measuring this one against the whole archive mixes up what the mechanic gives it with what the card itself gives it. Measured inside its own group, the two come apart.

The group is every ex card in the archive — 942 of them. Each figure is compared with what that group typically prints, not with the archive as a whole.

What does being a Psychic card do for Mew ex 53?

Type decides two things at once — which cards take double damage from this one, and which cards deal double to it. Both are read from the weakness printed on each group, not from a rule of thumb.

Deals double to this card 1,249 Darkness cards carry that type A Darkness attack printed at 90 damage is enough to remove this card in one turn.

What knocks out Mew ex 53 in one hit, and what does it knock out?

Weakness doubles the damage a Darkness attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 90 printed damage rather than 180.

Why this card was picked to stand opposite

Of the 393 cards in the archive that can remove Mew ex 53 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 90 printed damage against a bar of 90. Anything printed higher removes it just as surely, so this is where the line actually sits, and this print is legal in Standard play today.

Mew exweak to Darkness ×2

Mew exresists Fighting -30

Read from the two boxes in the lower-left corner of the card — weakness multiplies incoming damage, resistance subtracts from it.

What the Fighting resistance changes

Damage from Fighting attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack printed high enough to knock this card out on paper may not do it. Resistance is a flat subtraction, not a multiplier — it does not scale with the attack.

What is Mew as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?

Mew ex 53 is one print of Mew. The figures below are about the Pokémon rather than this single card — how many times it has been printed, how tough those prints run, and how many of them can still be played.

Mew has been printed 61 times, and the printed numbers move from one print to the next. Point at a card to see it full size.Tap a card to open its page.

Is this the strongest Mew print, and can the older ones still be played?

61 prints carry this name in the archive, and 49 of them are laid out below. They share a Pokémon but not a card — printed HP, printed damage and tournament legality all move from one print to the next.

Bar height and the number above each bar = highest HP that year; the two digits below = the year.

Rows run from the toughest print down. Bars are printed HP, measured against the toughest print of this name shown here (310 HP), and the highlighted row is the card this page is about.

What actually removes it

A Darkness attack printed at 90 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 180 HP.
394 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Damage from Fighting attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack that clears the bar on paper may still fall short.

Mew ex 53 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Mew ex 53?

Mew ex 53 has 180 HP and a Darkness weakness at ×2, so a Darkness attack printed at 90 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 180.

What is the retreat cost of Mew ex 53?

None. Mew ex 53 carries a printed retreat cost of zero, so it can move out of the active spot without discarding any Energy. The once-a-turn limit on retreating still applies.

How often can you use Restart?

Once during your turn. The limit is printed in the ability itself, and it is counted per Pokémon — a second copy of Mew ex in play carries its own use.

Can an older Mew print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 49 prints listed on this page, 5 are legal in Standard play. The rest can still be played in formats that accept them, and the table on this page names the regulation mark each print carries.

Can Mew ex 53 be played in a tournament?

It is legal in Unlimited and Standard and Expanded play, and it carries regulation mark G. Standard events run on a rotating list of sets, so check the current rotation before entering one.

What does the rule on Mew ex 53 mean?

The card reads “Pokémon ex rule: When your Pokémon ex is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.” That sentence is printed on the card itself, so it applies wherever the card is played.

Does this page say how good Mew ex 53 is in a deck?

No. Every figure here is read from the printed card. Deck lists, tournament results and win rates are not published on this site, because the card files it reads do not contain them.
