What are Pokeballs for?
For those who haven't used these balls before, let's quickly go over what some of them offer you as a trainer.
Quickball increases the chance of catching a faster Pokémon. Useful for those who are looking for a way to quickly leave the fight scene. Level ball increases the chances of catching a Pokémon if the Trainer's offer is a high level. The higher the level, the higher the chances of success.
moon ball good to use for pokemon that evolve using moonstone or one of their respective evolutionary variants..
Beastball - used to capture ultra monsters. First appears in season 21 of the anime.
Using heavy ball will be especially useful when you are faced with a heavy view. The heaviest Pokémon in new games include Avalugg, Snorlax, and Mudsdale.
Finally, the Lure Balls are the most useful when fishing, meaning that anything you can find in the water will be easier to catch with one.
So, here it is! These are all the free mystery gift codes found so far in Pokemon Sword and Shield. If we find something else, we will update this article.
