Yeah, like @Meowpheel said, it is the Title screen theme (as I recall). They aren't My Nintendo Rewards. When you buy one of the games from the eshop, it will give you a screen after the download finishes with a code for Celebii, and just below that is the code for the theme. You just have to enter that code into the theme shop on the 3DS home screen.
I recall seeing a blurb about these on Serebii about these being available to Japanese customers, but nothing outside of Japan. Glad to see that the perk is international!

not really related to the game but I had a problem getting the codes for Celebi and the 3DS Home Theme (I believe it's something to do with having linked my Switch eShop to my Nintendo Account as receipts don't show up past March 3rd on my 3DS eShop). Called Nintendo's customer service and they fixed it real quick, e-mailing me the codes ~10 minutes after I called them.
Lol. I've just been walking around in circles in the dark. Bayleef is now level 18. I'm hoping to train up little Dunny at the Sprout Tower, but the search has dampened my progress.
"Gee, that's really persuasive. Do you have any actual points to make other than to essentially say 'me Tarzan, physical bad, digital good'?"
The first ever shiny Pokemon I came across (minus Gyarados) was a Rattata in Pokemon Gold. I had no clue what they were at the time and ran from it. XD I thought my game was glitched or something.

Mine was a pidgey in Silver. I wonder where it is now. It probably died in my old savefile or is in the Stadium Limbo.
On a slightly related note, I just caught my first ever Gen 3 shiny, a gulpin. Like really, the first one in all these years. I had seen a zigzagoon many many years ago, but couldn't catch it.
Well I downloaded Gold last night...if I got wind of the special themes by buying a download code from BB, I would've just snagged it while I was there for Pokkén, heh. :3
As far as shinies go, I actually didn't get around to playing the Gen II games til later on, despite watching the anime faithfully from the original season til Gen III ended. The first shiny I remember encountering myself belonged to someone at...Trainer Hill(?) in Emerald; it was a shiny Espeon. I remember being upset because OFC it wasn't a wild Pokémon and -it was a frickin green Espeon-.
