The number of codes entered determined what type of serial code was received; one Pokémon Scrap resulted in a Genesect code, five resulted in a code for ten pieces of Dynite Ore, ten resulted in a code for Poké Ball Set 1 (consisting of a Fast Ball, a Level Ball, and a Love Ball), 13 resulted in a Volcanion code, 16 resulted in a code for ten pieces of Dynite Ore, 20 resulted in a code for Poké Ball Set 2 (consisting of a Moon Ball, a Heavy Ball, a Friend Ball, and a Lure Ball), 23 resulted in a Marshadow code, 27 resulted in a code for Poké Ball Set 3 (consisting of a Safari Ball and a Sport Ball), and 30 resulted in a Master Ball code. The serial codes could be redeemed from November 20, 2020 to April 30, 2021.

It should be noted that the codes from the Dynite ore which are rewarded for turning in 5 and 16 scraps respectively, despite generating the same reward pull from different wonder cards. In practice, this means that in order to receive 20 dynite ore, a player needs to redeem both a code from turning in 5 scraps and a code from turning in 16 scraps. It is not possible to redeem 2 codes from redeeming 5 scraps on the same save file. (and the same can be said about redeeming 2 codes from redeeming 16 scraps on the same save).
