Scarlet & Violet Leaks: New Pokemon & Sword & Shield: Get Free Marshadow

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are less than two weeks away from their release on the Nintendo Switch, but in the meantime, Pokemon fans can add a free mythical Pokemon to their collection of Sword and Shield games.

Through November 12, Target stores across the U.S. are offering free download codes for Marshadow, a fighting/ghost-type mythical Pokemon originally introduced in Pokemon Sun and Moon.

As with other free Pokemon promotions, no purchases are required, but the codes are only available while supplies last, so if you’re hoping to get one, you’ll need to act fast.

Get Free Marshadow

Once you have the code, fire up your copy of Pokemon Sword or Shield and redeem it by following the steps below:

Press X to open the menu.
Select Mystery Gift.
Select Get a Mystery Gift.
Select Get with Code/Password.
Input the code when prompted.
Save your game.
This promotion comes ahead of the launch of the next mainline Pokemon games, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. The upcoming game takes players to a brand new open-world area called Paldea, which is home to a variety of new Pokemon and characters.

Sword and Shield’s online event ends this month with the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. After November 1st, the game will no longer receive any new Max Raid events or online matches. However, other online features – such as the ability to trade and battle with other players – will continue to be available.
