 A lot of you will be starting out with your play through in Scarlet and Violet. It is officially released day over here in the West and I hope everyone that is playing is enjoying the games. But even though it is day one of these games, there is a mystery gift already waiting for us to access. So we're going to go through all the details of that and some other things for you to access in your early part of your play through. So stick around until the end of the video. But before we get into today's video, please subscribe to the channel. Remember, you can always unsubscribe later if you would like to. So we can come into game and I will show you exactly how you can access this mystery gift. Of course, this is for the early purchase bonus of Pikachu that you can get right up until February next year, 2023 for purchasing this game. So it doesn't matter if you've got the game now or you order it in between this time to February. You're still going to be able to get this bonus of this special mystery gift Pikachu with the flying terra type. So when you're in game, you want to come to your Pokemon portal. This is something that you'll be able to access as soon as you reach the first Pokemon Center in the game, so very early on in your play through. So you'll be able to add Pikachu to your party and use it in your play through if you'd like. You come down to mystery gifts. All you need is a internet connection for this one and get via the internet. You connect to the internet. It'll do all of its fun jango things and connect you once it's connected. You will be brought through to this screen. It'll search for gifts and you'll see that you've got this flying terra type Pikachu gift. And all you need to do is click on it and it will be pulled into your game. We're going to get this nice animation of the new mystery gift icon here. It's a lot like Sword and Shield, just slightly different. And inside we're going to get that nice, shiny, flying terra type Pikachu that you can use throughout your play through, which is really cool because it can add something different that you're not regularly going to be able to get through your normal play through. And then when you're finished, you just need to exit out. Remember, there will be more online events happening even next week and then in early December as well for that Charizard raid then event. We'll cover everything here on the channel. Now, the other thing I wanted to mention was as soon as you do get to a certain stage in your play through, you get to Mesugosa, which is the first town that you will or the big town, the main town that you'll visit in your play through. There will be an NPC character here. And this was something that was dropped in the trailers, this information. And it is in regards to having access to other save files from previous Pokemon games. Now, if you've got Pokemon Legends, also a save file, if you've got Pokemon Sword or Shield, Brilliant Diamond, Shining Pearl or Legends, also, you're going to be able to get special items from this NPC character here. And I'll just pull it up on the map so you know exactly where it is. But you literally like you that you just go through the main door and they are here the first steps. Once you talk to this NPC character here, like I say, if you've got save data on your console from any of the previous Pokemon games on the switch, let's go Pikachu and Eevee, Brilliant Diamond, Shining Pearl, Pokemon Legends, Arceus and Pokemon Sword and Shields, you will be able to get a special Rotom case from this NPC character. You get the ball guide for Pokemon Sword and Shield. You get a special one for BDSP Pikachu and Eevee one for let's go Pikachu and Eevee. And then the Arkfond design from Pokemon Legends, Arceus. Now, you don't need to have complete game saves. You can literally just start these games up if your friends got a copy of them and then just make a quick save at the start of the game. And you've got the save data to get access to these items. But that is another item that you're going to be able to access. And also, it's worth noting as well, there is a special event running on the Pokemon Online. So this is not for everyone. You've got to have the online membership. But if you come into the membership here, you can see that they are starting to do Pokemon gifts that you'll be able to use your kind of Nintendo points with to purchase icons and other bits and bobs in here. And these will be getting updated with new ones every single Friday in the run up to the 26th of December. So every Friday, we will get a new batch of these and you'll be able to use your coins and purchase them and get nice little icons like I've got here, I've got Spriggy Tito as mine at the moment. So that is something else that you can take advantage of in your games. But this was a quick update today. I hope you have found it useful, friends. Definitely grab the Pikachu while you've got the chance, especially if you can use it through your playthrough. It's going to be useful. It might not be at all, but at least it fills a gap in the Pokedex for you. If nothing else, and it is a nice mystery gift to pick up. Have a great rest of your day, friends. Hope you are enjoying playing through these brand new games. Let me know if you've grabbed this mystery gift down in the comment section below or one of the exclusive Rotom cases that you can get in these games. And I will catch you all again very soon in another video for Pokemon Scholar and Violets. Until then, take care. Bye bye.
