Here's how to get Zeraora in Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon

The main line Pokémon The franchise is preparing a major jump to the Nintendo switch next year, but before that, Nintendo has planned a final bravo for Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon on the 3DS. Earlier this year, Nintendo revealed the most recent mythical Pokémon, Zeraora, before staying silent for several months, when it was released. Today, the company broke this silence by announcing a new distribution event that Pokémon Players across the United States add Zeraora to their list.

In the end, some actions will be necessary on your part because getting Zeraora will not be as easy as opening Mystery Gift in your game and downloading it from Nintendo's servers. Before you can do this, you will need to go to GameStop to get a download code. These will be available at GameStop stores from October 19 to November 9 throughout the United States. You will have three weeks to stop and take one.

Once you have the code card, you will need to clear the code on the back, then go to Mystery Gift in the main menu of Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. From there, select "Get with code / password", allow Mystery Gift to connect to the Internet and enter the code at the prompt. Zeraora will then be added to your game and you will be able to retrieve it from any Pokemon center.

The Zeraora offered in this event will arrive at level 50. It will have a random nature and will have four hits: Plasma Fist, Thunderclap, Close Combat and Thunder, so it will be quite a fighter. His ability is Volt Absorb – which allows Zeraora to heal himself a little every time he suffers an electrical blow – and he holds a balloon, an object that will protect him from ground attacks.

Nintendo also revealed today that Zeraora will be featured in TCG's Sun and Moon Lost Thunder extensions, which will be launched on November 2nd. Not only will Zeraora receive their own card, but it will also feature in the Elite Trainer Box of this expansion. Zeraora will probably be the last mythical Pokémon released for the 3DS Pokémon games, so be sure to grab it when you're lucky.
