Download Shaymin Starting Friday As July’s Pokémon Mystery Gift

Continuing the series of monthly downloads a.k.a. Mystery Gifts to celebrate the Pokémon series’ 20th anniversary, July will bring with it the opportunity to add Shaymin to your team on Pokemon X/Y and Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire. The flowery hedgehog-looking cutie will be available for download in North America starting Friday, July 1. To obtain this Mystery Gift, simply select “Mystery Gift” from the main menu (not within the story), then “Receive Gift,” and finally “Get Via Internet.”

Shaymin will come with the ability “Natural Cure,” which heals the “burn,” “poison,” “sleep,” and “freeze” statuses upon withdrawing from battle. The little guy will be an impressive level 100 and come packed with the moves Seed Flare, Aromatherapy, Substitute, and Energy Ball.

Shaymin will be available until July 24.
