The Atrocious Pokémon, Gyarados, is available to redeem for owners of Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet for a limited time in the latest Mystery Gift promotion! The event is to celebrate the 2024 Pokémon Asia Championships and is based on the Gyarados used by Melvin Keh, whose in-game Trainer is named Sophia, during the 2023 Singapore Pokémon Championships.
