The feeling you first got when playing Pokémon Go is probably gone by now.

That happiness, and nostalgia, when you first picked between Squirtle, Bulbasaur and Charmander is gone, and now this shit is serious.

Fuck Rattatas, fuck Magikarps, and you can most certainly double fuck Pidgeys. Where the fuck is Mew?

The legendary and cute rarity is reportedly unavailable on the app, as is thought to be the case of Mewtwo, who was scientifically created based on Mew's DNA.

Well, it seems that those reports of Mew's unavailability are wrong, as someone went into the coding of the game and found that all the legendary Pokémon exist within the data.

Elite Daily uncovered a very impressive and plausible theory as to where Mew is located, taking us back to our younger years, dissecting both Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue for the GameBoy.

The theory speaks of a journal that can be found in the Pokémon Mansion, on Cinnabar Island. Within that journal is a passage regarding a mysterious Pokémon, who is later confirmed to be Mew.

The journal says that Mew was discovered deep in a jungle in the South American country of Guyana.

Due to the fact that Pokémon are not really placed randomly, but are found near habitats that suit them, Mew dwelling in a jungle in Guyana makes sense.

Also, the fact that the creators seemingly like to keep in line with the story lines that were originally created years ago is brilliant.

I actually have a mate who originally comes from Guyana. Him and I might be taking a trip back to his homeland soon. Cy, hit me up, mate.
