List of serial code event Pokémon distributions (Generation VIII): Difference between revisions

(we always consider different id as separate event. if you want to merge, alot of events from all the older gens would also have to be merged for being the "same" pokemon)
(Merging three pages like these into any fourth (or even different places) would just be messy, we'll redirect them...)

This is a reverse-chronological '''list of event Pokémon distributions''' that were given away via [[serial code]]s to Pokémon games in [[Generation VIII]].
#REDIRECT [[List of event Pokémon distributions#Generation VIII]]
 
Unlike serial codes in the previous games, serial code events in these games are region-free and can be used regardless of the game or console's region or language, provided the player is connected to the internet and uses a legitimate serial code. An active subscription to [[Nintendo Switch Online]] is not required to claim [[Mystery Gift]]s on Nintendo Switch games.

[[File:Pokémon Scrap 2020 logo.png|thumb|Pokémon Scrap 2020 logo]]
[[File:Pokémon Scrap 2020 artwork.png|thumb|Pokémon Scrap 2020 artwork]]
These Pokémon were [https://www.pokemon.co.jp/ex/getchallenge_2020/ distributed] to players who entered the codes from the "[[Mythical Pokémon]] Get Challenge" (Japanese: 幻のポケモンゲットチャレンジ) onto the official site in exchange for a serial code. Pokémon Scraps could be found in [https://www.pokemon.co.jp/ex/getchallenge_2020/products/ participating types] of Pokémon merchandise starting on November 20, 2020.
 
The number of codes entered determined what type of serial code was received; one Pokémon Scrap resulted in a {{p|Genesect}} code, five resulted in ten [[Dynite Ore]]s code, ten resulted in a [[Poké Ball]] Set 1 ([[Fast Ball]], [[Level Ball]], and [[Love Ball]]) code , 13 resulted in a {{p|Volcanion}} code, 16 resulted in ten Dynite Ores code, 20 resulted in a Poké Ball Set 2 ([[Moon Ball]], [[Heavy Ball]], [[Friend Ball]], and [[Lure Ball]]) code, 23 resulted in a {{p|Marshadow}} code, 27 resulted in a Poké Ball Set 3 ([[Safari Ball]] and [[Sport Ball]]) code, and 30 Pokémon Scraps resulted in a [[Master Ball]] code. The serial codes could be used to obtain the Pokémon from November 20, 2020 to April 30, 2021.

Multiple redemptions of these Pokémon are allowed on a single game, provided the player has preordered multiple tickets, and consequently, has multiple serial codes.

===Poké Ball Plus Mew===
Initially released with [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the [[Poké Ball Plus]] comes programmed with an internal serial code to redeem this {{p|Mew}} that is compatible with Pokémon Sword and Shield. Despite being marketed as the Poké Ball Plus "containing" Mew, the serial code aspect means that to claim, the player must connect to the Internet through Mystery Gifts.
 
The serial code aspect also means that it is impossible for a single manufactured Poké Ball Plus to redeem more than one Mew, even if the Poké Ball Plus is later resold. Players that purchased multiple Poké Ball Pluses can redeem one Mew for each.
