Babies never had a chance in the old format, because there was so much in the metagame that ignored/nullified Sweet Sleeping Face (Dialga G.X, Flash Bite, Bright Look, Warp Point, Take Out, Shadow Room, etc.) or could OHKO them on the bench (Dragon Rush, etc.).

How would you like to add a level 5 Mew to your Heart Gold or Soul Silver game (or both games)? Wait, it gets better.
The Pokemon Company dropped some very exciting news on the world of Pokemon, to celebrate the 10-years since Pokemon Trainers had a chance to visit the Jhoto region in the original Pokemon Gold & Silver. To honor this historic event, they announced that starting October 15th through to October 30, 2010 you will be able to download via Wi-Fi, a level 5 Mew to Pokemon Heart Gold or Soul Silver.
Here’s more details from the Official Press Release:
BELLEVUE, Wash. —October 12, 2010— It has been 10 years since Pokémon™ fans first visited the Johto region in the Pokémon Gold Version and Pokémon Silver Version video games. To commemorate this historic occasion, Pokémon Trainers can get the Rare Psychic-type Pokémon MewTM for the original titles’ remakes, Pokémon HeartGold Version or Pokémon SoulSilver Version, for the Nintendo DS™ family of systems via a Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection distribution event October 15 through October 30, 2010.
The Mew character you will receive is a Level 5 and comes with one basic Normal-type attack, Pound, giving Pokémon Trainers the ability to raise and train Mew as they see fit. Making this distribution especially exclusive, Mew comes inside a Cherish Ball and has a Premier Ribbon, both indicating that you got it via a special event.
During the limited distribution period, players will need to receive Mew using the Mystery Gift option via the Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection service and their existing wireless broadband Internet access, and will need to acquire the Pokédex in the game. Players must also have fewer than three Wonder Cards in their game.
