To access Mystery Gifts, click on the d-pad of your Nintendo Switch to open up the menu. You can then scroll through the various options. Once you have completed A Request from Mai, open the Satchel, scroll to the Communications Tab, and hit the Mystery Gifts option.
All mystery gift codes in Pokémon Legends: Arceus
The current crop of mystery gift codes in Pokémon Legends: Arceus is pretty simple. Expect more to be added over time. There are also likely to be bundles of items and free Pokémon added as free gifts over time. And for the curious, here’s a quick tip on redeeming these codes. Here are the current mystery gift codes:
- Nintendo eShop Pre-Order bonus – obtained through the internet – Heavy Balls x 30, Growlithe Kimono Set, Baneful Fox Mask (expires on May 9, 2022)
- Amazon US Pre-Order bonus – obtained through the internet – Garchomp Kimono Set, Growlithe Kimono Set, Baneful Fox Mask (expires on May 9, 2022)
You can also get more than just free items from mystery gifts. The one thing with some of these items is that they’re dependent on certain factors. Players of previous Pokemon games can get free rewards depending on the games they already have save data for on their Switch. You’ll be able to claim these items once you have joined the Galaxy Expedition Team at about an hour into the game. From there you just need to speak to the Clothier in Jubilife City and the items will be yours.
- Shaymin Kimono Set: Players must have save data on their Switch for either Pokemon Sword or Pokemon Shield.
- Modern Team Galactic Set: Players must have save data on their Switch for either Pokemon Brilliant Diamond or Pokemon Shining Pearl.
- Pikachu and Eevee Masks: Players must have save data on the Switch for either Let’s Go Pikachu or Let’s Go Eevee.
You won’t be able to grab your Mystery Gift rewards in the game immediately. You need progress past the first few story missions to unlock the feature. After completing a round the first half-dozen story quests, you can unlock a bunch of different items. For now though, just play through the game and have fun.
