Effect
When the player has the Old Sea Map, if they go to the S.S. Tidal port in Lilycove City and interact with the woman standing in front of the boat, the Faraway Island event will activate. She proceeds to fetch the captain, who initially claims it's impossible to take the player to the area denoted on the chart, but Mr. Briney scolds him for turning the player away and volunteers to take the player to Faraway Island, even though it is a long way from Hoenn.
After the boat ride, the player enters Faraway Island, a small island with a thick patch of forest. Deep within this forest, the player notices Mew, who flees playfully. After a short game of hide and seek, the player is able to pin Mew in a corner and engage it in battle.

Distribution
The Old Sea Map was only distributed in Japan, as a way to obtain Mew in Pokémon Emerald. This item was available at the Pokémon Festa 2005, as well as the Japanese PokéPark theme park from September 1 to 25, 2005. In other countries, Mew was also distributed directly in several other events for the Generation III games, without accessing the Faraway Island or using the Old Sea Map. In particular, Mew was distributed later in the Taiwanese PokéPark as well (without using the Old Sea Map).
This item works equally well in all language versions of Pokémon Emerald, even though it is only legitimately obtainable in the Japanese version.
In the manga
Pokémon Adventures
FireRed & LeafGreen arc
The Old Sea Map was one of the items Ultima took from the Trainer Tower in Bested by Banette. She had been looking for it in order to help her old friend, Mr. Briney, find a way to Faraway Island. When Ultima called Briney about her find, however, she was shocked to learn that the old sailor had managed to find the island without the map.
Trivia
- The Old Sea Map and the related event were both created by Shigeki Morimoto, Mew's original designer.
