[Switch] Free Shiny Koraidon or Shiny Miraidon for Pokémon Scarlet or Violet @ EB Games (In-Store Only)

670

Soon, you’ll be able to get Shiny Koraidon or Shiny Miraidon for the first time by visiting GameStop in the United States or EB Games in Canada, Australia, or New Zealand and picking up a special code card between September 26, 2025, and October 15, 2025.

The code will let you receive Shiny Koraidon in Pokémon Violet or Shiny Miraidon in Pokémon Scarlet, but only one of these two Pokémon can be received per code. Shiny Koraidon and Shiny Miraidon are cool enough, but don’t forget that these two powerful Pokémon are often used in both competitive battles and Tera Raid Battles, so you won’t want to miss adding them to your team.

To claim your in-game gift, follow these steps:

  1. Launch your Pokémon Scarlet or Pokémon Violet game.
  2. Select Poké Portal on the X menu.
  3. Select Mystery Gift, then select Get with Code/Password to connect to the internet.
  4. Enter your code.
  5. Watch as the gift arrives in your game. (Pokémon will appear in your party or your Pokémon Boxes.)
  6. Be sure to save your game.

There’s no purchase required for this promotion, but the offer is only available while supplies last, so don’t delay. Head over to GameStop or EB Games to claim your Shiny Koraidon or Shiny Miraidon!

  • Thanks for the heads up. I've never redeemed any of these things before but do you need the NSO subscription?

      You don’t need one to claim mystery gifts.

    • +3

      Nintendo Switch Online membership not required to redeem Mystery Gift.

  • can we take multiple cards?

    • +1

      Depends on the employee at your local EB Games.

      I manage to get a couple the last time they had code card.

      • i hope i can get 2

        • +1

          You can only redeem 1 per game. The shiny you is the opposite to the version exclusive for your game, so for Violet Koraidon and for Scarlet Miraidon. So if you don't have both versions, 2 codes won't do you any good. Because people try to hoard these codes to sell them, EB usually enforce 1 per person these days.

            @Ryven: Do we know if these things are 1 per game, or 1 per Switch User Account?

            Also known as, do I have to choose a favourite child if they share a console and 1 game.

              @Goshawk: It's linked to the accounts, not the game cartridge itself.

              But, don't let that stop you from picking a favourite.

  • One shiny per code is a bit rough.

    • It's how they've always done it.

  • i was at the EBGames in World Square the guy at counter said "many people asked for it, we do not know when it will start, but will give a code out usually if u purchase a pokemon merch."

    • From the Pokemon Site:

      between September 26, 2025, and October 15, 2025

      Some store will make you purchase Pokemon Products for the code even though it says no purchase required.

      • And if they do, tell them to eat bricks, it's a free promo

      If you get an employee that tells you to buy, show them website. Theyre not allowed to force u to spend money to get code.

      • Thank you sir

    Just picked one up from Top Ryde, no purchase required

  • +2

    got one from North lakes Westfield, didn't ask for purchase

  • got one tried being a regular asian and asked for two got rejected

  • got one in Vic, no need for purchase

  • All gone at Canberra city. Seeing them on marketplace and eBay for $100 makes me cry 🥲

    • Who works at Canberra must of stolen it from work, maybe confront the workers?

      • +1

        The guy there told me they all ran out at 12pm. Which I find it quite hard to believe? I’m only here on a trip but I thought I’d give it a try. Hopefully there will be some left in Melb when I go back :(

  • All gone at Victoria Park, Livingston and Maddington WA. I cannot believe this and probably they only offering 10 codes per shop

  • +3

    Went to three EB Games in Melbourne CBD and they all were gone in the first 30 minutes of the 2 week event.

    I genuinely dont understand how they make the event two weeks when they dont have enough codes for the first 30 minutes…

    They are also veing scalped on Ebay for $80 now which I have reported the post…

  • Does anyone know if they plan on getting a restock during the event duration?

  • +6

    Update: The ebay listing I reported was successful and the losting was removed

  • Broadway ran out as well. Didn't realise they'd all be gone so quick!

  • Just went to EB in Wollongong and was advised the whole Illawarra is out. Unreal

  • I got a card easily enough yesterday from my local EB. Scratched it myself but when I went to claim it I got an error "this code has already been claimed" :(

  • Anyone know if ebgames is printing codes on receipt now?
