If you’re a Pokemon fan and have a Smyths Toys available near you then you will want to head down there to claim Legendary Pokemon Articuno, Zapdos, or Moltres for Pokemon Omega Ruby, Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, Pokemon X and Pokemon Y. If you go to the retailer you’ll be given a code that will give you one of these Pokemon at random and you’ll need to trade with your friends to get all three. If you don’t have a Smyths outlet near you then you can sign up for the Pokémon Trainer Club newsletter.
The Legendary Pokémon you receive will have a Hidden Ability, which makes it different from the Pokémon you’ll find in the wild in any game.
Here’s how to get your Pokemon via code:
- Select MYSTERY GIFT on the main menu.
- Select RECEIVE GIFT, then YES to confirm.
- Select GET WITH CODE, then YES to confirm, then YES again to connect to the Internet.
- Enter your code.
- Watch as you receive Articuno, Zapdos, or Moltres.
- Resume the game, make sure you have an empty space in your party, and speak to the delivery girl in any Pokémon Center to receive Articuno, Zapdos, or Moltres!
- Be sure to save your game.
Smyths events are the only ones that come to Ireland despite the amount of GameStop stores here too 😑
