If you have save data for other Pokemon games on your Nintendo Switch, you can obtain the two mythical Pokemon.
Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl launch for Nintendo Switch on November 19th, and fans who’ve played other Pokemon games on their Switch console will receive a special bonus: either the mythical Pokemon Mew and Jirachi. To get them, you’ll need to have save data for Pokemon Sword/Shield and/or Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu/Eevee on your Switch. You’ll only be able to claim one of the Pokemon, so choose wisely. Here’s how to claim the mythical Pokemon reward.
How to get Jirachi with Pokemon Sword/Shield
Players who have Pokemon Sword or Shield save data on their system will be able to receive Jirachi in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. To claim the mythical Pokemon, you’ll need to speak to the gentleman standing in the flower field in the southwestern corner of Floaroma Town. He will give you the Pokemon and tell you to take good care of Jirachi, the Wish Pokemon.
How to get Mew with Pokemon Let’s Go Eevee/Pikachu
Players who have save data for Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu or Pokemon: Let’s Go, Eevee on their Switch will be able to get Mew in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. To collect the Pokemon, you’ll need to speak to the madame in the same flower field in the southwestern corner of Floaroma Town.
You can only choose one
If you have save data for both games, you’ll need to be careful with which NPC you speak to. Make sure you talk to the one that correlates to the Pokemon you want. If you only have one of the two games on your Switch, well, the decision is made for you!
Those aren’t the only free mythical Pokemon that Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl players can get. Everyone who purchases a copy of either game before February 21st, 2022 will be able to receive a free Manaphy egg via the Mystery Gift function. You’ll also be able to catch older legendary Pokemon in the games through a new facility called Ramanas Park.
There’s even more Pokemon content to be enjoyed next year. Pokemon Legends: Arceus will launch for Switch on January 28th. It, too, has an extra bonus for Sword and Shield players. Everyone who has Sword or Shield save data on their console will be able to get the mythical Pokemon Shaymin in Pokemon Legends, as well as a Shaymin kimono set for their trainers (so cute!). Players with Pokemon: Let’s Go save data will also receive a Pikachu and Eevee trainer mask.
Seems like dedicated Pokemon fans will be well rewarded!
