Project Mew (Japanese: プロジェクト・ミュウ Project Mew) is a research project in the anime, which recruits Trainers from around the world, aiming to find Mew. It was first introduced in Advice to Goh!.
Description
Objective
The official members of Project Mew are attempting to find Mew in order to figure out the origins of Pokémon, which is led by Professor Amaranth.
Members
The highest rank a person can get in Project Mew is the rank of Chaser (Japanese: チェイサー Chaser). The first two Chasers to appear are Danika and Quillon, with their role being to distribute missions and evaluate the performance of other Project Mew participants.
In Project Mew, there is a category of Trainers who receive challenges and must complete them through Trial Missions. They are known as Challengers (Japanese: チャレンジャー Challenger) and the three Challengers with the most Tokens will become Chasers at the end of the Chaser selection. Goh, Gary, and Horace all qualified as Chasers in Chasing to the Finish!.
Following the mission on Faraway Island in The Mew from Here! and In the Palms of our Hands!, Project Mew temporarily disbanded, with only the original members still on the team, though the junior Chasers were given the right to return to the team for the next expedition.
List of known Challengers
| Trainer | Tokens |
|---|---|
| Gary | 15 |
| Horace | 11 |
| Goh | 10 |
| Lyla | 9 |
| Sterling | 8 |
Trial Missions
As an initiation process, a challenger must complete a mission assigned to them within a certain period. Upon completion of this mission, they will be allowed to participate in Project Mew as a Challenger.
In order to continue to participate in Project Mew, a Trainer must pass certain Trial Missions assigned for them. The Trainer taking on Trial Missions receives a list with three missions divided by colors and must choose only one of them to complete. Once the mission objective has been achieved and verified, the Trainer will earn a special token on their Rotom Phone as proof. The challengers with the most tokens become Chasers, and during the selection process, those with less than four Tokens were automatically disqualified.
During evaluations, a Challenger can receive more Tokens than others depending on how they perform during the mission, along with showcasing attributes such as good leadership or teamwork. The items collected during Trial Missions are brought to be verified by a Corviknight, and some missions that involve battles are recorded by a drone.

- Project Mew's work of rescuing Pokémon and returning them to wildlife is similar to the work of some real life non-governmental organizations such as WWF or Animal Rescue Corps.
- The unseen Trial Mission from Chasing to the Finish!, "Follow three sets of virtuous footprints", is a reference to a side quest in Pokémon Sword and Shield's The Crown Tundra expansion, which requires the player to find a certain amount of footprints scattered around the Crown Tundra in order to find the Swords of Justice.
