The Mystery Gift function is almost as old as Pokemon itself, having been around since the release of the Gen 2 games back in the late nineties. As a result, it's not too surprising to see Mystery Gifts make a return in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, with players once again able to download special items and Event Pokemon straight to their Switches with the help of an internet connection.

How to Download Mystery Gifts
It should perhaps go without saying, but those hoping to download Mystery Gifts in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet are going to need an active internet connection. Assuming they have one, they should open up the menu by pressing the X button and then navigating to the Poke Portal. From here, it's a simple case of selecting the "Mystery Gift" option from the bottom of the list and then choosing the distribution method that they require.
If they have a code, they'll want to select "Get with Code/Password" and then input the code on the following screen. Anything else can be claimed simply by clicking on "Get via Internet." Players can also see a list of every Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Mystery Gift that they've claimed so far by choosing the "Check Mystery Gifts" option. Unlike some of the other online functions in the Gen 9 games, players will not need a Nintendo Switch Online membership in order to claim Mystery Gifts.
