Goh realizes that finding Mew isn’t feasible, and becomes a shiny hunter instead.

In all seriousness, the anime should have a shiny hunter character.

Oh the irony, first a shiny Volcarona, then an episode about shiny Pokemon.
The pacing and placement of the episodes in this series is really strange. They're trying to sell the idea that shiny Pokémon are super rare yet we're getting them two weeks in a row. Like having two episodes in Sinnoh, then one in Alola only to come back to Sinnoh in the following one. Everything feels so weird.

You dont need to tell me. The Pikachu episode between the depression didnt make sense either

Easygoing Luxray.
Aren't there more if we count the major league and minor league ones? Even that was pretty glossed over in the games.
Oh, I forgot Melony.

And I only mentioned the official gym leaders, no more characters.
Also, why do many here say that Goh "doesn't deserve" what he has?
Maybe because of this?

*a Pokemon he doesn't have shows up*

Goh, literally, in a sing-song tone: Mine!

*throws a miraculous Critical Capture*

*Ash just smiles in the background*

*rinse and repeat*

If we don't get an arc about Kubfu at all then it would be a huge dissappointment, considering we barely have Galar focus episodes/arcs at the moment.
Kubfu is in fact not a mythical Pokémon, it is a legendary Pokémon and no those terms are not interchangeable.
@AnderMallony @Martinat388 @Dragonsoldier77 These are all fair possibilities, the thing is Kubfu is no ordinary Legendary either, it's a game mascot. So I think it's a little less likely that it's showing in the anime will boil down to just a flashback or Pokedex entry (although I'd be ok with that), rather than an appropriate arc of presentation for it in the series or even featuring in a movie, though the latter is even less likely to happen at this point. But who knows, right...
Anyway... If Asahi has a Rapid-Strike and has blue hair then she may be a Water-type specialist, just like her partner seems to be Dark-type specialist. If so maybe that's part of the reason she was recruited so she can be the essential part of the team for tasks involving underwater exploration and stuff if we have water areas on that Mew mountain (I think it's in an island CMIIW). I hope the expedition gives each Chaser a specific role as well.

Careful? Where's the fun in that?
Goh's captures are so worthless, he catches it and then it becomes a background piece that no one cares about. The worst thing is when this happens to pokémon I like or gen 8 mons that need focus
Scizor is like his most used nonstarter... with what, 4 episodes total (counting when it was a Scyther)? Tragic

Would have been the perfect episode to have Colorvari reappear.
Koromi too, for the perfect trinity of shiny bug catchers.

Given that episode 81 features a shiny Voltorb, I guess Goh could either, surprisingly, capture shiny Larvesta/Volcarona, which features in the following episode, or he misses his chance, but it spurs him onto trying to catch a shiny pokemon in the 81.

I swear, the writers aren't even trying with Project Mew. Only the Moltres 'trial' felt somewhat interesting; what does rescuing a random Ninetales and finding a shiny Volcarona have to do with Mew? Also, I stg if Goh gets this Volcarona, despite the series literally introducing a character whose whole shtick is shiny hunting...
Well, it'd give Go a reason to talk to Shihun, so...odds of him getting it are high

Although it'll probably just be he talks about seeing one and he just nabs a larvesta which never evolves because they have a stupidly high level requirement
