To celebrate Pokemon Day 2025, The Pokemon Company is bringing back an exciting tradition with a special giveaway for a fan-favorite Pokemon. This time, it's not as simple as just loading up your Nintendo Switch or mobile device; you'll need to put in a bit more effort to snag a free Flying-Tera type Eevee in *Pokemon Scarlet* or *Violet*. Here's how you can get your hands on this unique Pokemon.
How To Get a Code for a Free Flying-Tera Type Eevee in Pokemon Scarlet or Violet
In the past, *Pokemon* has offered special codes through major retailers, allowing fans to walk into stores and pick up codes for exclusive Pokemon. While this practice has become less common, Pokemon Day 2025 is reviving it with a giveaway for a Flying-Tera type Eevee. Here are the participating retailers and the countries where you can find them:
| Retailer | Country |
| Best Buy | US |
| GameStop | US and Canada |
| Toys “R” Us | Canada |
| EB Games | Australia and New Zealand |
From February 7 to February 27, *Pokemon* enthusiasts can visit these retailers to obtain a code while supplies last. It's also a great opportunity to check out other *Pokemon* products, including the popular Prismatic Evolutions TCG set.
