During big events, The Pokémon Company likes to run special gift campaigns to try and entice more fans to tune into broadcasts. For the 2023 Europe International Championships (EUIC), this promotion will take the form of two giveaways, each with some competitive ties to the current meta in their respective games.

During the EUIC, TPC will release two passwords that will give players access to rewards in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet or Pokémon TCG Live, respectively. 

In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, players can get a Mystery Gift code and receive a special Palafin that takes inspiration from one used by VGC Regional Champion Gavin Michaels. It will be instantly ready for competitive usage, and here is the full build shared by TPC.

Players will only get one copy of the card, but it has shown strong potential in the TCG meta already and also features its Special Illustrator Rare artwork—which is one of the most sought-after cards in the entire set. The code will be redeemable until 1am CT on April 24.

This also isn’t a giveaway that works like Twitch or YouTube drops. Once the password goes live, anyone eligible to use it can enter it in their games and get the rewards, even if they didn’t watch the event at all. You just need to keep an eye out for when the codes are shared on stream.
