If you want to claim a free shiny Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet, then you need to act fast to avoid missing out.

That being said, if you can look past some of the flaws of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, there is plenty of fun to be had, but I think most fans are now eagerly awaiting the first game in the series on the Nintendo Switch successor.

However, you will need to act fast to avoid the feeling of disappointment of not claiming this glorious shiny Pokémon to be used in Scarlet and Violet.
To claim the free Shiny Pelipper, simply select ‘Poké Portal’ in-game and then choose ‘Mystery Gift’.
Now, select ‘Get with Code/Password’ and enter this code W1DEGUARDLA1C25 and finally, press ‘OK’ to confirm.
There you have it, the shiny Pelipper is now yours to keep forever.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are out now on the Nintendo Switch.
