'''Sterling''' (Japanese: '''シュンヤ''' ''Shunya'') is a recurring character who first appeared in ''[[JN110|Narrowing the Chaser Chase!]]''. He is one of the Challengers taking part in [[Project Mew]].

==History==
[[File:Lyla and Sterling.png|250px|left|thumb|Sterling and Lyla]]
Sterling was first seen taking part in the battle royale [[Field Research|Trial Mission]] at [[Sea Mauville]], using his {{p|Vikavolt}} to battle and defeat an {{p|Abomasnow}} and a {{p|Golduck}} when he encountered [[Lyla]]. Sterling was offered the chance to team up with Lyla, which he accepted. They continued to explore Sea Mauville, defeating fellow challengers and evading the {{p|Roselia}} and {{p|Magby}} that [[Danika]] unleashed to make the mission harder.

Later, they came across [[Goh]] and [[Horace]] and made them think that Lyla's {{p|Liepard}} was defeated. This was soon revealed to be a trick, allowing Sterling and Lyla to attack Horace's {{p|Gardevoir}}, causing it serious [[damage]]. Sterling teamed up with Lyla to battle [[Goh's Inteleon]], but Goh was successful in defeating Vikavolt, causing Sterling to fail the mission. Sterling then joined with all the other challengers and Danika and received a video message from [[Quillon]].

In ''[[JN113|Chasing to the Finish!]]'', Sterling appeared at the [[Split-Decision Ruins]], where {{Gary}} and Goh were taking part in a Project Mew mission. Working with Lyla, he tried to interfere in their mission, but was eventually stopped. Afterwards, he watched as they took on an {{p|Regidrago}} and {{p|Regieleki}}, which they proceeded to catch, completing the mission.
