Connecting The Poke Ball-Plus
When you load up your game you are going to want to head into the "Mystery Gift" menu option after you press X.

Obtaining Mew
You'd think getting one of the rarest and most powerful Pokemon ever created would be a bit harder, this step is essentially one of the easiest ways we have ever heard of obtaining Mew.
When you are connecting your Poke Ball-Plus, if it is a brand new one out of the box, the game will alert you saying that Mew is trapped inside the Poke Ball and if you want to let it out.
After you do this it'll be in your party, easy as that!
Beware, if you already had Mew from Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee, you will not be able to transfer it over to Sword and Shield.

What Do I Get From Using The Poke Ball-Plus?
You will get the usual item that your Pokemon will pick up for you while you are walking with the Poke Ball. However, you will not be able to gain XP points for your Pokemon like you can do in the Let's Go games.
