It’s time to once again prove that you’re the very best by thinking fast and getting involved before the countdown runs out.
Pokémon Scarlet & Violet may not be to everyone’s liking, yet this generation of the franchise keeps on giving.
Just like its predecessors, mystery gifts and special events are in abundance.
Sometimes the freebies are minimal in nature – a bumper supply of 10 potions or similar – but this time around, it’s something big.
Advert
And very shiny.
To mark the beginning of the 2025 Latin America International Championships, The Pokémon Company have revealed its next mystery gift.
It’s a shiny Pelipper.
We can't wait for Pokémon Legends: Z-A to launch
Before you declare this another uneventful free download from Nintendo, let’s all take the time to remember that shinies are rare.
Anyone who’s tried the countless “tried and true” methods to trigger shiny Pokémon will know how much of a grind it is.
More so if you’re hatching eggs.
Even the most boring Pokémon suddenly becomes precious because of how tirelessly you have to work to get it.
Being able to receive one free of charge is an offer we should all be rushing to accept.
What is more, this shiny Pelipper is a symbol of victory to celebrate Patrick Connors winning the 2024 Latin America International Championships.
By getting your very own, maybe you can reach the victorious heights that Connors did.
If you intend to bag yourself a shiny Pelipper, you only have a matter of hours to do so.
Once we reach 21 November, this Pokémon will be yet another critter you have to catch through normal means.
Make sure to use the code W1DEGUARDLA1C25 when you're ready to claim this freebie.
Time is of the essence here, trainers. Shiny Pokémon wait for no one.
Within the next 72 hours this ‘mon will be gone, and you’ll only have yourselves to blame for missing out on it.
