Pokémon GO Promo Codes & How To Redeem Them (December 2024)

2 weeks ago 14

Using the latest Pokémon GO promo codes is a great way to bag yourself some extra rewards. Like most free-to-play games, promo codes are released now and then to celebrate special events or crossovers. Whether it's an accessory for your avatar or some free Poke Balls, it's always worth claiming them.

While it's possible to play Pokémon GO without spending a single dime, there are quite a few premium items that need to be paid for with real money. This means any time you're running low on items or PokéCoins, the game can get expensive. Fortunately, there are usually quite a few free rewards to claim throughout the year when developer Niantic releases promo codes.

As of December 2024, there is only one active code you can redeem in Pokémon GO since many have expired. The only remaining code available expires on January 4th, 2025, giving you the rest of the month to claim it. Unfortunately, it seems that the turn of the new year has made all previous codes obsolete, and unlikely to ever return to the mobile Pokémon title.

While only occurring once a week, spotlight hours should be taken advantage of to catch lots of the featured Pokémon and for bonuses in Pokémon GO.

The remaining code is for the popular FendixFrgmtxPokemon hoodie depicting a Dragonite in Pokémon GO. This particular reward is a simple cosmetic change for your in-game character, but it will become rare soon as it expires early in 2025. Here is the code you can enter to receive this rare Avatar look:

Keep in mind that you can only activate a code once per account . If you used any of the available codes for November 2024 during a different month, you won't be able to activate or redeem them a second time.

It was previously possible for GO Fest 2024 ticketholders to use the promo code GOFEST2024 to get one Premium Battle Pass and one Incubator whenever they made a purchase on the Pokémon GO web store, but that has now expired.

How To Redeem Codes For Pokémon GO

You Can No Longer Claim Them In The App

The only way to redeem promo codes in Pokémon GO is to visit the game's official web store. After clicking the link, look for the 'Offer Redemption' button at the top of the page. Click this, and you'll be taken to the right page, where you can sign in to your Pokémon GO account and enter a promo code. Finally, hit the 'Apply' button to claim your rewards.

Make sure you sign in with the same credentials you used to play Pokémon GO on your mobile device or your rewards might not be delivered to the right account.

If you've entered a valid promo code, the next time you open Pokémon GO on your mobile device, a notification will pop up to confirm that you've claimed a reward. Bubbles should also appear containing the rewards you've earned, whether that's avatar clothing or an item like a Raid Pass. It used to be possible to claim codes in-app on Android phones, but that's no longer the case.

It's always worth keeping an eye out for more Pokémon GO promo codes using the game's official social media accounts, as they're usually shared there first. You can follow them on TikTok, Instagram, and X to keep track of the latest news. Quite often, codes that are shared via the game's social media pages have a limited number of redemptions, so you'll need to be quick.

While there aren't many codes to redeem right now, there have been plenty of them released in the past that have since expired. Recent examples include a free set of Timed Research that led to a Meteorite, an item needed to Mega-Evolve the Legendary Rayquaza, as well as a set of Timed Research that led to an encounter with Captain Pikachu from the Pokémon: Horizons anime.

Remember that all the codes in the table above have now expired, so you won't be able to claim them. Having said that, they should give you a good idea of what kind of rewards could be available in the future if Niantic releases more promo codes. Loads of Galar-themed events are now happening alongside Max Raid battles, but as time goes on, there could be even more exciting rewards on the way.

The best rewards that have been offered through promo codes in the past were encounters with the Legendary Titans Registeel, Regirock, and Regice. These were shared as part of the Pokémon GO Tour: Hoenn event, giving Trainers perhaps the easiest Legendary Pokémon encounters in the history of Pokémon games. I'm keeping my fingers crossed it happens again soon.

What's Happening In Pokémon GO This Month?

Watch Out For Community Days And Other Events

There are a variety of different events taking place in Pokémon GO this month, including:

  • Just My Cup Of Tea Event
  • Aspiring Dragons Research Day
  • Gigantamax Lapras Max Battle Day
  • Young & Wise Event
  • Necrozma Fusion Raid Day
  • Holiday Part One Event
  • December Community Day
  • Holiday Part Two Event
  • Charged Embers Hatch Day

Many of these events focus on increasing the spawn rates of certain Pokémon, including Shiny variants in Pokémon GO that you have a better chance to capture. For example, the "Aspiring Dragons" Research Day allows you to complete research tasks to catch Shiny versions of Swablue, Trapinch, or Horsea, who can all evolve into powerful Dragon-type Pokémon.

All these events and special days usually last for 1–3 days, so make sure you're checking social media and the game itself to see what's going on. The limited time to participate in events can easily cause you to miss important rewards for reaching goals during these periods.

That's everything you need to know about promo codes and what's going on in Pokémon GO during December 2024. Free rewards aren't released as often as they used to be in the mobile game, but it's always worth keeping an eye out for any new codes. Screen Rant will continue to update this page when any new rewards are released, too.
