The Pokemon holidays are in full swing, with players able to claim free rewards across Pokemon Go, Scarlet & Violet, Pokemon TCG Pocket, and Legends Z-A throughout the Christmas period – not just on Christmas Day.
Rather than being one-off festive handouts, each game offers free items, Pokemon, and collectibles in different ways. Scarlet & Violet and Legends Z-A keep things simple with Mystery Gifts, allowing players to redeem codes or digital bonuses in seconds.
Meanwhile, Pokemon Go delivers freebies through multiple channels, including Gift exchanges between players, promo codes, and more.
To make sure nothing slips through the cracks, we’ve rounded up all the gifts available during the Christmas 2025 period so you can claim every reward before they expire.
Legends Z-A
In Pokemon Legends Z-A, players can claim a small selection of free Mystery Gift rewards during the Christmas 2025 period, with some distributions running into March 2026. These include handy items designed to help speed up progression as seasonal events roll on.
Legends Z-A keeps things simple with its Mystery Gift system, allowing rewards to be redeemed instantly online. While promo codes are rare, limited-time distributions are still worth checking regularly over the holidays.
We track every active Legends Z-A Mystery Gift as they go live, not just during Christmas. If you’re playing over the festive break, make sure you’re claiming everything available before the new year arrives.
Scarlet & Violet
In Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, players have plenty of Mystery Gift codes to redeem during the Christmas 2025 period, many of which remain valid right up until mid-January 2026. These rewards include Evolution Stones, useful items, and cosmetics like a Tracksuit and a Rotom Phone Case.
These giveaways aren’t just a seasonal thing, either. We track Scarlet & Violet Mystery Gift rewards all year round, so you can always stay on top of what’s available by checking our complete codes hub and bookmarking it for future drops.
And if Christmas puts you in the mood for trading, you’re in luck. There are also plenty of active trade codes to use over the holidays, giving you an easy way to swap Pokemon and complete your Pokedex if you haven’t yet.
Pokemon Go
Niantic’s mobile hit may not be overflowing with freebies this holiday period, but there’s still a standout cosmetic up for grabs in Go. Trainers can redeem a promo code to unlock a free hoodie for their in-game Avatar, making it one of the cleaner rewards available over Christmas 2025.
This isn’t just any hoodie, either. Pokemon teamed up with FENDI and FRGMT to create a premium Dragonite design that retails for around $1,200 in the real world – so while your wallet stays safe, your Avatar still gets the drip.
Players can also jump into the in-game store to claim a Daily Free Box.
Pokemon TCG Pocket
While there are no active codes to redeem right now in Pokemon TCG Pocket, there are a couple of easy free rewards you should be claiming throughout the Christmas 2025 period.
The most consistent comes from free booster packs, which can be opened simply by checking in every 12 hours as your Pack Stamina refills.
On top of that, players should regularly check the in-app store, as Daily Gifts appear for a limited time and often include Shop tickets and Wonder Hourglasses.
If you want a full breakdown of how to claim every free pack and card available, be sure to check out our TCG Pocket rewards guide. With all the holiday freebies stacked up, you’ll have plenty of chances to pull something special before the season wraps up.
