The Pokémon Company and series developer Game Freak continue to provide robust post-launch support for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the flagship RPG titles for the Nintendo Switch, with fresh content and in-game events.
Even as anticipation grows around new releases like Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the latest distribution event for Scarlet and Violet invites players to add a championship-worthy Whimsicott to their parties. In a move that bridges competitive and casual play, trainers can now claim a Whimsicott patterned after the one used by renowned player Federico Camporesi, who secured victory at the 2025 Pokémon North America International Championships.
This special distribution arrives on the heels of the 2026 Latin America International Championships, underscoring The Pokémon Company’s ongoing engagement with the global competitive scene. To obtain this exclusive Whimsicott, players must enter the code "LA1C26TA1LW1ND" via the Mystery Gift menu inside Pokémon Scarlet or Violet.
This event is available for a limited time and will run through November 30, 2025, giving fans ample opportunity to redeem the code and strengthen their lineup with a proven battle Pokémon. This distribution follows a series of recent content additions for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
Players also have the chance to catch a Goodra with the exclusive Mightiest Mark, which returns for a special event period from November 28 to November 30, 2025.
These rotating events not only maintain interest but also align with major Pokémon championship dates, connecting the community across regions and formats. Earlier this year, the Nintendo Switch versions of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet received a significant technical upgrade as part of Version 4.0.0.
This free update introduced improved frame rates and enhanced resolution, ensuring an even smoother gameplay experience for Switch owners.
Details of these improvements are available in the official patch notes. Meanwhile, Pokémon Legends: Z-A continues to generate buzz as well.
The upcoming RPG recently unveiled a new Mega Evolution for its planned DLC, which is set to release next month.
In addition, the third season of Ranked Battles for Z-A has been announced, with full information on rewards and kickoff dates shared through official channels. With a steady cadence of distribution events, technical upgrades, and competitive tie-ins, The Pokémon Company and Game Freak reaffirm their commitment to keeping Pokémon Scarlet and Violet fresh and engaging for Nintendo Switch players.
Whether you're looking to enhance your party with championship Pokémon like Whimsicott or challenge yourself in ranked battles, there's never been a better time to dive back into the ever-evolving world of Pokémon.
