Game Freak and The Pokemon Company are celebrating Pokemon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk with free rare Pokemon for a limited time. Starting now, you can redeem Mystery Gift codes for Shiny Lucario, until Jan. 3, 2024, and one for Darkrai. The Darkrai code is only active until Dec. 21, 2023, so make sure to get on it soon if you’re interested.

You can catch Riolu and Lucario in Scarlet and Violet with a chance of either being Shiny, so that code is a nice helping hand that saves you eating three dozen sandwiches and hoping for the best. There’s no way to get Darkrai in Scarlet and Violet at the moment without a code unless you transfer from a previous game using Pokemon Home. If you want to fill out your national Pokedex and add a powerful Dark-type ‘mon to your team, now’s the time to do it.

The celebration coincides with the release of Scarlet and Violet’s Indigo Disc DLC, where legendary Pokemon – except Darkrai – play an important role. Throwing nearly all the legendaries in one final expansion is becoming a Pokemon tradition at this point, and The Indigo Disc is carrying it on in a big way.

You’ll find the likes of Kubfu, Moltres, Latios and Latias, and Virizion, among others,  scattered across Paldea, waiting for you to roll up and end their career of legendary wandering by cramming them in a tiny ball. 

The Indigo Disc launches on Dec. 15, 2023, and comes bundled with The Teal Mask, part one of Scarlet and Violet’s DLC.
