Why would anyone ever do that, since it'd prove the naysayers right and we can't have that

I get that... but how well are youar abilities tested if your friends also can help you out in these missions without becoming a chaser later. I mean both Gary and Goh got Ash's help. Alrhough Gary ia waay strongee than Goh..
We were flat out told the trial analyzes the subject's ability for team work too, so if anything, you should be wondering why Gary didn't have help for the Moltres mission until he coincidentally met Ash along the way, though it is possible that Moltres was not his first trial and he had already done another where his ability for interplay with a team mate was already tested.

Except that explanation would work if we somehow saw the project mew was monitoring Gary. He calls coevi ans sends in the feather and is accepted. How would they evaluate if he worked on a team or not?

Can we please get the older, old forum back?
Honestly never a fit when Ash already has Lucario as the martial arts Fighting-type.

It wasn't, when Gary sent the Moltres feather, Asahi said "great work, like always". They probably trust Gary enough to give him a high-level trial like that without a partner

It was 100% possible to have made the Trials fulfill that purpose and be related to Mew as well.
Yes, because it wouldn't have been too difficult to make the tasks at least somewhat related to Mew. As it is now, it almost feels like these were filler episodes where the writers tacked on 'Project Mew' to make it seem like Goh's making some actual progress towards his 'goal'.
They would not be giving "tasks somewhat related to Mew" to someone that is not even officially part of their team yet. All they want right now is weed out interested expedition members by testing how good they are at what they are going to need help for, it would make no sense for them to share important jobs with someone like Goh at this point in time. And I absolutely disagree in every way with the notion that this does not add progress to Goh's quest. Capturing Mew is a big deal, getting experience with this kind of work is a natural progression and training for that goal.

What correlation does that have to do with my post and people saying it's a flaw the Volcarona trial isn't tying to Mew?
That's a different goalpost you're arguing all together, not my original point. I will say the help part to me is overblown by other ppl, despite Ash's so called help Gary and Goh mostly completed the trial by themselves and deserved their rewards esp coz the mission analyse based on teamwork too, but based on leaks if they are true and not hyperbolic, I will have your same problems if Tsurugi and Asahi help Goh as much as the leak implies. I'll say further on this after the episode
It's not needed though? And again wanting that fact is something else, but claiming that's the norm and the trials not showing it is a flaw is false. As for why it doesn't necessarily have to be related to mew, it's because Project Mew's whole shtick is to go on that once a year expedition opportunity onto that island. For that they don't necessarily need mew related stuff for each trial, rather expedition skills.

To be fair I could definitely see a teacher/student relationship or maybe bromance between Lucario/Urshifu like the one Hawlucha/Noivern had. Besides Urshifu is more of a fist fighter than Lucario (bit of a mix), so to me it wouldn't be totally the same thing.

What skills if he can bring a friend with it? We are already at episode 80 this should have been done 30 episodes ago.
Read my long post that I made two days ago, we expected more.
Maybe it's our fault

I'd like to phone a friend, Regis. I'm going to call Ash, who is really good in these situations.
Which one? I didn't see any long posts when I went back.

The show not catering to your expectations doesnt mean something is a flaw
Well, considering Project Mew is ultimately a team effort...
