Volcanion, Genesect and Marshadow

A new Pokemon Mythical Distribution event is coming to a few regions around the world, with Pokemon Sword & Shield codes for three very rare species up for grabs – Genesect, Volcanion, and Marshadow.

Completing any Pokedex is never the easiest thing in the world, and the Galar Region of Pokemon Sword and Shield was no different. Some monsters can only be obtained in the games by trading, importing from Pokemon Home, or – in this case – with codes.

If you were waiting on a few Mythical Pokemon to complete your set, however, a new chance has appeared in the long grass.

Here is everything you need to know about September’s code distribution event, where trainers can land themself three species they may not have seen yet.

When is the next Pokemon Mythical Distribution event?

Start date

The event kicks off on September 9, 2022, across a select number of regions.

End date

The event ends on September 30, 2022, meaning players have plenty of time to pick up a code for Pokemon Sword & Shield.

  • GAME – United Kingdom
