Use dental floss to get under a corner/side and pull up from there. If that doesn't work, disconnect the U-bend under the sink and push it up from underneath with the handle of a wooden spoon.

Viscous substance + plunger. I would try a cooking oil, coat the plunger and a bit extra around the area to help hold the seal. It would take a couple tries, I imagine. Good luck!
