Cut the seedless watermelon into chunks and blend in a blender until smooth.
Strain the blended watermelon through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl to remove pulp, yielding about 4 cups of watermelon juice.
In a large pitcher, combine the fresh watermelon juice, Mountain Dew, pineapple juice, lime juice, and simple syrup. Stir well to combine.
Add ice cubes to the pitcher and stir gently to chill the punch.
Taste and adjust sweetness or tanginess by adding more simple syrup or lime juice, as needed.
Tear fresh mint leaves slightly to release their flavor and add to the pitcher. Stir gently to distribute the mint.
Serve the punch in individual glasses over ice, garnished with lime slices and watermelon wedges if desired.
Enjoy your refreshing Watermelon Mountain Dew Punch!
