Pokémon fans warned they've until end of August to claim a free download

Fans of Pokémon and free stuff better hurry as you have just a few days left to get your hands on some Poké freebies.

If it has been a while since you booted up Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet, then this is the perfect opportunity as The Pokémon Company and Nintendo are teaming up to offer some exclusive rewards.

Check out the trailer for Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet below!

That’s right, Mystery Gifts have returned and for the next few weeks, owners of 2022’s Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet can redeem some unique items.

Running from the end of August to February 2025 and onwards, there are 13 codes to redeem with the first eligible until 31 August.

This means that you just have a couple of weeks to redeem the code L1KEAFLUTE to earn Cetitan to add to your Pokémon roster.

As well as Cetitan, players can also earn Revavroom, Sprigatito with Partner Ribbon, Chest-Form Gimmighoul, Pawmot and Fuecoco as well as currency and other in-game items.

You can find a full list here but be sure to redeem the codes before the time period ends.

As mentioned, these freebies can be redeemed for Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet which received quite mixed reviews when they were released two years ago.

In our review for Pokémon Scarlet, we deemed it “a great adventure held back by poor performance”.

Our review read: “Pokémon Scarlet and Violet have finally delivered on the promise of an open-world entry, but with all the technical issues and stripped-back features, it’s hard to not feel like the Nintendo Switch held these games back.”

In other Pokémon news, it was sad news yesterday after it was revealed the actor for Misty and Jessie, Rachael Lillis, died at age 46.

It is a heartbreaking blow for the Pokémon fandom and we are sending our thoughts to her friends and family.
