There's a new item distribution available in Pokémon Sword and Shield and it's only on offer for one day - so be sure to act fast!
This time around it's a Gold Bottle Cap. As explained by Serebii.net, this item was given out during the Pokémon Players Cup IV stream. The code you'll need this time around is: PLAYERSCH01CEPC
This item can be used to boost a Pokémon's Individual Values (IVs) to the maximum. More info here.
To redeem this item, select Mystery Gift in the game's menu, code and then input the above code.
Serebii.net has also revealed a Torkoal is up for grabs via a separate distribution event. This offer also ends tomorrow.
Have you redeemed the Gold Bottle Cap yet or this Torkoal yet? Are you still playing Sword and Shield on a regular basis? Leave a comment down below. View all of the past code distributions for Sword and Shield in our full guide.

I might complete the dex one day.
I don't play anymore, but I still log in to receive limited time items.
I didn't play my Pokemon games on NDS, 3DS and Switch for very long time as my current hype is on Yokai Watch 2 & 3 3DS games.
I couldn't get into the game despite having pre-ordered the Double Pack, but i do enjoy collecting them free Mystery Gifts!
@thejuice027 hahah exactly this. Need to finish the main story and the expansion!
People who are interested in Gold Bottle Caps probably already have a ton of them. People who are not interested, don't need them. I dont know, what's the point of those distributions. Do some shiny distributions or something. Anything that's actually worth starting SwSh.
I can’t believe there was no mythical giveaway event like we had for the 20th anniversary.
I like these event Pokemon distributions they've been doing. This is not just "a Torkoal". It's a fully trained Torkoal, exactly as the one last year's champion in Japan used. It's a piece of championship history and I think that's awesome
@Onkel_Laser gold bottle caps are more for competitors then anyone else, given that their only purpose is to max out a pokemons ivs
I played through Shield and the Isle of Armor but not the Crown Tundra yet, so these might be helpful.
A gold bottle cap is a lovely freebie! And this Torkoal is a really solid Pokemon for VGC. Anyone who plays VGC is very aware of how much of a staple its been in gen 8.
That said, anyone who plays VGC probably already has a battle ready Torkoal. Because it very much is a staple Pokemon in the format.
But I really appreciate the gold bottle cap. I've been slow working my way through my shiny collection, making sure they're all EV and IV trained and battle ready.
I will go out on a limb and say I really hope if we get another freebie, they give us some ability patches. It's so grindy to save up enough dynite ore to get those...
@Shadowmoon522
I know what they do. That's my point. People who dont care about VGC or competitive dont need those.
Cool. How some freebies for Mario Golf instead. Game needs content. 😂
@Onkel_Laser You see, these two distributions are related to the VGC. They were promoted during championship streams, to championship viewers. There are a bunch of other types of events, like the monthly shiny raid events. It's silly to complain about the nature of a distribution like this.
Why do these distributions have to be a one day thing? God I hate being busy.
