List of event Pokémon distributions (Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!)

From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Jump to navigationJump to search

This is a reverse-chronological list of event Pokémon distributions that were given away via serial codes to the games Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!.

Unlike serial codes in previous games, serial code events in these games are region-free and can be used regardless of the game or console's region or language, provided the player is connected to the internet and uses a legitimate serial code. An active subscription to Nintendo Switch Online is not required to claim Mystery Gifts on Nintendo Switch games. Although the games are capable of receiving events via the internet without a serial code, this distribution method was never used.

Because the games in question do not use Abilities or Ribbons, they are currently unknown. However, they are programmed into the events, and can be viewed if they player puts them in a Pokémon HOME box and observes it while linked to a Generation VIII game.

Pokémon Center Birthday Chansey

This Chansey were distributed via serial code to players at Pokémon Center stores and Pokémon Stores in Japan from November 16, 2018 to November 14, 2019, if they visited during the month of their birthday, but only if they provided proof of their date of birth and Nintendo Switch. Due to a bug in the Wonder Card, the name of the Chansey follows the receiver's game language, despite the language tag being Japanese. Due to a bug that causes mismatched names and language tags to render improperly, Chansey's name is displayed as "??" when redeemed in Korean, and "???" when redeemed in Simplified Chinese. The Codes Expired February 29, 2020

Poké Ball Plus Mew

The Poké Ball Plus comes programmed with an internal serial code to redeem this Mew in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!. Despite being marketed as the Poké Ball Plus "containing" Mew, the serial code aspect means that to claim, the player must connect to the Internet through Mystery Gifts.

The serial code aspect also means that it is impossible for a single manufactured Poké Ball Plus to redeem more than one Mew, even if the Poké Ball Plus is later resold. Players that purchased multiple Poké Ball Pluses can redeem one Mew for each.
