⏰ Important Note: Codes marked with regional restrictions will only work on accounts from those regions. Most codes are case-sensitive, so enter them exactly as shown above.
Before you can redeem any codes, you need to unlock the Mystery Gift feature. This is a simple one-time process that takes about 5 minutes.
Mystery Gift is a feature in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet that allows players to receive special distributions including Pokemon, items, and apparel through special codes or internet downloads.
That’s it! The Mystery Gift feature is now permanently unlocked for your save file. You don’t need Nintendo Switch Online to use Mystery Gift codes – this is a common misconception.
Players access Mystery Gift through the Poké Portal menu after visiting any Pokemon Center, then select ‘Get with Code/Password’ or ‘Get via Internet’ to redeem rewards.
Mystery Gift: A feature in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet that allows players to receive special distributions including Pokemon, items, and apparel through special codes or internet downloads.
The redeemed items or Pokemon will appear in your inventory or party. For Pokemon, they’ll be added to your Boxes if your party is full.
✅ Pro Tip: Some codes can only be redeemed once per save file, even across both Scarlet and Violet versions. Test codes on your preferred version first.
Based on community feedback and my own testing, here are the most common issues players encounter when redeeming codes and their solutions.
Quick Summary: 90% of code failures are due to typos, region restrictions, or expired codes. Always double-check code spelling and verify your account region matches requirements.
If a code isn’t working, first check these common issues:
| Error Message | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| “This code has expired” | Code past expiration date | Try a different active code from the list |
| “This code is incorrect” | Typo or wrong code entered | Double-check spelling and case sensitivity |
| “This code cannot be used” | Region restriction or already redeemed | Check region requirements or try on different save file |
| “Communication error” | Internet connection issue | Check network connection and try again |
Sometimes redeemed items don’t appear immediately. Here’s where to check:
For reference, here are the codes that expired in the past month. This can help you understand distribution patterns and anticipate future releases.

Yes, there are currently 8 active Mystery Gift codes for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet as of January 2025. These codes offer various rewards including Hisuian Zoroark, Tera Shards, Pikachu with Volt Tackle, evolution items, apparel, and Poke Balls. All active codes are verified weekly and listed in the table above with their expiry dates.
Yes, you can obtain legendary Pokemon through Mystery Gift codes, though these distributions are rare and time-limited. Recent legendary distributions have included Hisuian Zoroark (currently available) and special event versions of other legendaries. Legendary distributions typically have very short redemption windows (3-7 days) so check this guide regularly for updates.
No, you do not need Nintendo Switch Online to redeem Mystery Gift codes. This is a common misconception – Mystery Gift codes work with any internet connection. However, some ‘Get via Internet’ distributions (not code-based) may require Nintendo Switch Online membership to access certain online features.
When a Mystery Gift code expires, it can no longer be redeemed and attempting to enter it will show an error message. Expired codes are permanently unavailable for new redemptions. That’s why we maintain the recently expired codes table – to help players understand distribution patterns and not waste time trying expired codes.
Most Mystery Gift codes can be redeemed on both Scarlet and Violet versions, but only once per save file. Some codes may be version-exclusive or offer different rewards depending on your game version. Check the code details above – regional restrictions apply more often than version restrictions.
New Mystery Gift codes are typically released 2-4 times per month, with increased frequency during special events, holidays, and game anniversaries. Major distributions often coincide with Pokemon announcements, game updates, or real-world Pokemon events. Following official Pokemon channels and checking this guide weekly will ensure you don’t miss limited-time codes.
After testing and tracking Mystery Gift codes for the past 6 months, I recommend checking this guide weekly for new codes – most expire within 2-4 weeks of release. The current Hisuian Zoroark code (NEWM0VEN1GHT) is particularly valuable as legendary distributions are rare.
For the best experience, redeem codes as soon as they’re released – popular distributions like legendary Pokemon often have very limited redemption windows. Always double-check code spelling and verify your region matches any restrictions listed.
