Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Mimikyu with Electric Tera Type distribution available at GameStop

There’s a new, easy way to get a Mimikyu with Electric as its Tera Type in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet as part of a distribution at GameStop.

The retailer is now offering a free code card for the games with a chance to claim the creature. Visit a local store by October 29 to pick one up for yourself. The Mimikyu comes in a Cherish Ball, has the Classic Ribbon, and is holding a Life Orb that increases the damage of all its moves at the cost of its HP. It also features the move Thunderbolt, which will receive a same-type attack bonus while Mimikyu is Terastallized into an Electric-type Pokemon.

Once you’ve received your code card from GameStop, here’s how to claim the Mimikyu:
