Attacks

All Pokémon in the game have a Fast Attack and a Charged Attack.

It is possible to change these attacks using objects called Fast TM and Charge TM.

As in the other games in the license, Mew is able to copy any attack. That's why he has a wide range of fast and charged attacks in Pokémon GO.

Obtaining Mew via the Special Research task will mean a random moveset is chosen.

Of course, you are to change these attacks by using a TM.
