Pokemon Scarlet Violet Shiny Chien-Pao distribution

A new Shiny Chien-Pao distribution is now available in both Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet. It can be obtained through Mystery Gift.

This is part of a recent promotion. Recently, players were tasked with defeating Shiny Chien-Pao at least one one million times collectively in Tera Raid Battles. The final tally was well beyond that, coming in at 5,020,994. This means that the distribution has unlocked.

Here’s how you can claim the creature:

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Shiny Chien-Pao distribution steps

  4. Choose the gift you want to receive.
  5. Watch as the gift arrives in your game.
  6. Be sure to save your game.

Shiny Wo-Chien was also recently given out for the Nintendo Switch titles, which you can read about here. Similar events are planned for Shiny Ting-Lu and Shiny Chi-Yu over the next few weeks – we’ll let you know if these are unlocked as well.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are both available on Nintendo Switch, and the Shiny Chien-Pao distribution will be offered until September 30, 2025. We also have a running list of all Mystery Gift codes here.
