Why do people want 0 IV Pokémon?

People want 0 IV Pokémon for specific competitive strategies, primarily to minimize damage from self-hitting confusion or moves like Foul Play (0 Attack IV for special attackers), to be the slowest possible for Trick Room teams (0 Speed IV), or to maximize Defense/HP under CP limits in Pokémon Go (0 Attack IV). It's about optimizing stats for niche battle scenarios, making them valuable for high-level play despite being counterintuitive to the usual "perfect IVs" goal.

What are 0 IV Pokémon good for?

A 0 IV is only good for speed, where you may want your Pokemon to be as slow as possible for Trick Room, Gyro Ball, etc. Maybe some special attackers would like 0 in attack to minimize confusion damage, but that's not a huge deal. It can also minimize Foul Play damage, but again, NBD.

What does an IV of 0 mean?

If you have a Special Attacker, having a 0IV ATK stat means less damage you'd be taking if your Pokemon gets confused. Similarly, Trick Room reverses speed order, so if you want your Pokemon to move first, have a 0IV Speed stat means it will be the slower Pokemon.

A Shiny Mew is extremely rare in traditional Pokémon games due to its elusive nature and event-only availability, but it became guaranteed for players who purchased specific paid event tickets in Pokémon GO, making it common for those players, though still rare overall for those who missed those chances. In main series games, getting one involves complex glitches (like the Pomeg Glitch in Emerald) or hacking, while in GO, it was tied to specific paid events like the Kanto Tour, meaning most players never got one unless they paid.
