Check the list below for all the Mystery Gift codes that are currently active in Legends Arceus. Some codes are available for all players to claim, while others are exclusive rewards, such as preorder bonuses. For now, none of the available gift codes have expired yet.

For SwSs, players can add Shaymin to their collection after unlocking a research request. For BDSP, you'll be able to unlock a quest to capture Darkrai.

Special code distribution event: Hisuian Growlithe

The codes above don't require players to head out of their homes; all you need is an internet connection to get your rewards (and to stay up-to-date with the codes being released). But in select countries, you can also get a fiery prize — a level 26 Hisuian Growlithe – plus 20 Feather Balls by going to participating stores in a special distribution event.

  • Belgium: GameMania

How to redeem Mystery Gifts in Legends Arceus

The Mystery Gift feature isn't something that players have right from the get-go in Legends Arceus, but instead it is unlocked automatically after completing Mission 5 as part of the game's main arc. You should keep this timing in mind especially if you have several gifts to claim as you wouldn't want those codes to go to waste just because you forgot to redeem them for being so absorbed in the game.

To access the Mystery Gift feature and claim your free rewards, follow these steps:

  • Open your Satchel and press ZR to scroll right through the different features available.
  • Select ‘Mystery Gift’.
  • For rewards that need a code, select ‘Get with Code/Password’ then enter the code as prompted. Take note of any unique capitalization or numbers when you type the code.
  • For gifts that don’t need a code, select ‘Get via Internet’ instead.

Do note that the Mystery Gift feature only works when you have an internet connection — even the rewards redeemable via a code need you to be connected to the internet so you can download the gift item or cosmetic set.
