Grab a Legendary Pokemon in Sun and Moon With This QR Code

The Event Pokemon are very rare Pokemon given out over the Nintendo Network or at select locations during a usually limited time frames in Pokemon Sun and Moon.

To get these creatures, you must choose "Mystery Gift" at the main menu of your Pokemon Sun or Moon game. Next, choose "Get Via Internet" if obtaining a Pokemon through the Nintendo Network, or choose "Get Via Local Wireless" if obtaining a Pokemon at select event locations like game stores.

Once received, the Event Pokemon can be obtained from a Delivery Man at any Pokemon Center in the game. Make sure you have an open spot in your party. If you wish to get a specific Nature or Individual Values, save before talking to the Delivery Man. If you talk to him with a Pokemon with Synchronize at the head of your party, the gift Pokemon will also have that Pokemon's nature. 

In addition to the Pokemon, you will receive a Wonder Card. All Wonder Cards are view-able from the Card Album in the Mystery Gift Menu. Only 24 Wonder Cards can be held on a game cartridge. If you can't receive the Event Pokemon, you may need to delete some Wonder Cards.

Magearna is an event-only Legendary Pokemon in Pokemon Sun and Moon. This page shows you how to add it to your game!

NOTE: You'll have to complete the main story before you can pick Magearna up! Thankfully the QR code does not have an expiration date, so no rush!

This special Steel- and Fairy-type Pokemon is caught by a different method than any other Event Pokemon, the first of its kind with others to most likely follow suit. To get Magearna, you'll have to scan a QR Code released on Pokemon.com! You can find it below:

North America	Europe (coming soon)

Because Magearna is obtainable via QR Code, there doesn't seem to be a time limit on when to get it. If you have the QR Code, you should be able to get Magearna.

Simply open the QR Scanner from the menu in Pokemon Sun and Moon (after already starting your game!)  and point the camera at the QR Code you want to scan. Hold the R trigger to capture the code. Then, you'll be able to add Magearna to your team by visiting the antique shop at the Hau'oli City shopping mall, accessible after you defeat your first Grand Trial!

This Pokemon's Ability increases its Sp. Attack by one stage every time a Pokemon on the battlefield faints, making Magearna an incredibly powerful Pokemon in Double Battles. Unfortunately, the Legendary can't be used in the 2017 VGC World Championship Series challenges or online competitions. However, Magearna does come with a very rare gift: A Bottle Cap, which is used for Hyper Training! With this Bottle Cap, you can max one of your Pokemon's stats as long as it's Level 100.
