By purchasing Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Early, you will be able to receive a special Pikachu via the mystery gift function. This Pikachu will be a great example of the new battle mechanics that generation nine has as it has two unique abilities.

The first unique ability is that this Pikachu knows the move fly, a move which Pikachu would never usually know due to its electric typing. That's not to say that Pikachu hasn't been able to fly before. One of the most popular cards in the history of the Pokemon Trading Card Game is the Flying Pikachu card.

This leads us to its second ability. The Tera type of this Pikachu is also flying, meaning that once it Terastallizes, the large crystal crown found on top of its head will be a set of balloons, directly referencing the famous card. This Tera type will also give bonus damage to the move fly, making this mystery gift a powerful companion in Pokemon scarlet and violet.

There is a time limit, however, as this gift can only be redeemed up until Tuesday, 28th February 2023.
