A subscription to the paid service Nintendo Switch Online is not required. The password can only be used once per save data. Both packaged and downloadable versions are eligible. The Mystery Gift menu in Z-A opens after progressing to the point of receiving the Momiji Research (모미지 리서치) rewards. The announcement noted an estimated play time of around 1 hour. The letters I, O, and Z are not used in passwords.
Same Password for Pokopia
Entering the same password in "Pokémon Pokopia" awards a furniture set. pokemon.com also stated that this password unlocks a Pokopia furniture set together with the Mystery Gift. Based on Pokémon Korea's announcement, Part 1's "Glitzy & Chic Set" includes 1 Antique Cabinet, 1 Cute Bed, 1 Cute Vanity, 1 Cool Stool, 1 Lace Mat, and 1 Tea Set. Part 2's "Warm & Cozy Set" consists of 1 Antique Chair, 1 Antique Cabinet, 1 Antique Table, 1 Humidifier, 1 Stone Fireplace, and 10 Stained Glass (Center).
Pokopia's Mystery Gift feature can be used by re-accessing the Pokémon Center PC after listening to the explanation of "Challenges" on the PC in the game. The estimated play time stated in the notice is 30 minutes. The notice added that these furniture items can also be obtained through regular gameplay. The rewards received differ between the two games.
Points for Korean Users
This distribution is not a case of being brought over separately after an overseas announcement. Pokémon Korea posted a Korean notice on the same day as the US announcement, and the password is identical. Packaged or downloaded versions purchased domestically can also receive it if they meet the above conditions. The password for Part 2's Shiny Yveltal has not been revealed yet. Pokémon Korea stated it will be revealed on December 10.
The distribution deadline is set for January 7, 2027. The notices stated that the same Pokémon or items might be distributed through other methods in the future, but did not specify the timing or method. Detailed information such as Xerneas's level, moves, or held item was not included in either announcement.
