Now this is something. There is no information on this, but in the video games, The Old Sea Map was an event item for Pokémon Emerald that allowed you to go to an island to meet Mew. It is also the only time that Mew has been available with the ability to shine. So in other words, maybe this is the research for Shiny Mew that has been announced?
