In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl, Mystery Gift is your way of obtaining Event Distribution items from Nintendo through your internet connection. Unlike other games, Mystery Gift isn’t just handed out to you but instead needs to be unlocked within the game.
Obtaining Mystery Gift
After defeating Team Galactic in Eterna City head back to Jubilife City and go to the TV Station building to the North-West of the Pokémon Center:
Head inside the building and make your way up to the 3rd floor. On the orange and yellow floor you will see a man and a woman speaking to each other:
Speak to the gentleman and he will inform you he is the TV Producer and he will ask if you have any ideas to help his future programming, say ‘Yes’. He will give you a choice of options, but you will want to choose ‘EVERYONE HAPPY WI-FI CONNECTION’:
Once you select this choice he will get happy and unlock Mystery Gift for you.
Using Mystery Gift
