Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: Sandwich Ingredients Mystery Gift Code

Mystery Gift Codes are Nintendo's way of giving back to the Pokemon community with special Pokemon, items and other goodies. One of the current Mystery Gift Codes going around right now rewards players with various sandwich ingredients.

Sandwich ingredients are handy for several reasons, like making shiny boosting sandwich recipes, or even for breeding Pokemon more quickly using the picnic function. You can also use sandwiches to boost your catching power for certain Pokemon, which makes it even easier to catch hard-to-find Pokemon like Roaring Moon.

This particular Mystery Gift Code is available until January 31, 2023, which means you have close to two months to redeem it. Like most Mystery Gift Codes, you can only redeem it one time, so make sure you grab it before it's gone.

The code is: HAJ1ME0R1G1NAL

Redeeming this particular Mystery Gift Code will reward you with the following sandwich ingredients:

  • 10x Peanut Butter
  • 10x Prosciutto
  • 10x Hamburger
  • 10x Cream Cheese
  • 10x Noodles
  • 10x Rice

If you've never input a Mystery Gift Code in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, then you don't have much to worry about. It's super simple to do and you can do it at any point as long as you're connected to the internet on your Nintendo Switch.

First, open up the main menu by pressing X. Then, scroll down to the Poke Portal and press A. Now, you're going to scroll down to the Mystery Gift option at the very bottom of the menu. This is where you'll select to input your code or just receive it from the internet.

If you're using a code like the one above, then you're going to select the Get with Code/Password option and input it. Then the game will connect to the servers, search for the code, and download the ingredients. The ingredients will automatically be added to your bag in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, so you won't have to do anything else to accept them.

Now that you have accepted this Mystery Gift Code, you can get out there and find your very own Pawmi or any other Pokemon you want to catch. Because there are shiny boosting sandwiches, too, you can use some of the ingredients to make it easier to find them out in the wild or even use them to spawn certain types of Pokemon that are easy to farm for experience to level up your party.
