The recently released Switch title Pok\u00e9mon Champions<\/a> has announced a new mystery gift event is now live.<\/p>\n

If you enter the event code before<\/em> 31st May 2026<\/strong> (aka<\/em> next week<\/em>), you’ll be able to add a Gyarados to your party. As highlighted by Serebii.net<\/a>, this was announced at the Pok\u00e9mon Trainers Cup at ‘Pok\u00e9mon Sports Day’ in South Korea.<\/p>\n

The Gyarados is equipped with the following moveset – Waterfall, Earthquake, Ice Fang and Dragon Dance, and also has the ‘Intimidate’ ability. It’s the first Pok\u00e9mon distributed with a title and is officially known as ‘Gyarados the Festive’.<\/p>\n

The code to redeem it is DRAG0NDANCEPTC26<\/strong> – from the main menu, select the ‘Submenu’ icon, and from here, navigate to the ‘Mystery Gifts’ option and input the code.<\/p>\n

As we’ve previously noted, if the game says the code has already been redeemed, or you’ve exceeded the maximum limit of code inputs within a certain time frame, don’t worry. Navigate back to the menu, and there should be a notification in your ‘Mailbox’. And if there is no notice, try restarting the game.<\/p>\n
