How To Redeem Mystery Gift Codes In Pokémon HOME?
What makes redeeming for Mystery Gifts in Pokémon HOME is that it doesn't require a code for Trainers to input in-game. This is achieved by heading to the in-game menu, locating the Mystery Gift feature, and opening the tab.
Trainers should be able to see a little gift box on-screen, which, once opened, will award you the Pokémon and items available if you meet the requirements listed above. Regarding the items, you'll receive a code from the Mystery Gift, which, in turn, can be redeemed in-game for Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl, Scarlet & Violet, Sword & Shield, or Pokémon GO.
