Using the latest Pokémon GO promo codes is a great way to bag extra rewards. Like most free-to-play games, promo codes are released now and then to celebrate special events or crossovers. Whether it's an accessory for your avatar or some free Poke Balls, it's always worth claiming them.

While it's possible to play Pokémon GO without spending a single dime, a few pay-to-win items need to be paid for with real money. This means any time you're running low on items or PokéCoins, the game can get expensive. Fortunately, there are usually quite a few free rewards to claim throughout the year when developer Niantic releases promo codes.

Every Active Pokémon GO Code

No New Codes In April (Yet)

As of April 2025, there are seven active codes in Pokémon Go. While the new year marked the expiration of the majority of codes available in Pokémon Go, the 2025 Pokémon Day Presents and the Go Tour Unova event have luckily brought in more to replace them, and we should continue to see more over the next few months. Keep in mind that codes may only be redeemed once per .

Once you've redeemed these codes, try to keep an eye out for Pokémon News announcements, as that is where new codes typically first appear. If you don't want to miss out, make sure you redeem them as soon as possible since, most often, there is a limited redemption period.

How To Redeem Codes For Pokémon GO

You Can No Longer Claim Them In The App

The only way to redeem promo codes in Pokémon GO is to visit the game's official web store. After clicking the link, look for the 'Offer Redemption' button at the top of the page. Click this, and you'll be taken to the right page to sign in to your Pokémon GO and enter a promo code. Finally, hit the 'Apply' button to claim your rewards. Make sure you sign in with the same credentials you used to play Pokémon GO on your mobile device, or your rewards might not be delivered to the right .

If you've entered a valid promo code, the next time you open Pokémon GO on your mobile device, a notification will appear to confirm that you've claimed a reward. Bubbles should also appear containing the rewards you've earned, whether avatar clothing or an item like a Raid . It used to be possible to claim codes in-app on Android phones, but that's no longer true.

Where To Find New (& Updated) Pokémon GO Codes

Social Media s Are Your Best Bet

It's always worth watching for more Pokémon GO promo codes using the game's official social media s, as they're usually shared there first. You can follow them on TikTok, Instagram, and X to keep track of the latest news. Code shared via the game's social media pages often has limited redemptions, so you'll need to be quick.

Promo codes are often shared around special events like the Pokémon World Championships or the International Championships, so it's a good idea to be on the lookout for free rewards around those dates. Of course, you can also find the latest promo codes for Pokémon GO on Screen Rant.

Expired Pokémon GO Promo Codes

Here's What You Missed Out On

While there aren't many codes to redeem right now, there have been plenty of them released in the past that have since expired. Recent examples include a free set of Timed Research that led to a Meteorite, an item needed to Mega-Evolve the Legendary Rayquaza, as well as a set of Timed Research that led to an encounter with Captain Pikachu from the Pokémon: Horizons anime.

If you're interested in seeing which free rewards have been available in the past, or you want to check if a code you have has now expired, check out some of the inactive Pokémon GO promo codes in the tables below:

that all the codes in the table above have now expired, so you won't be able to claim them. Having said that, they should give you a good idea of what kind of rewards could be available in the future if Niantic releases more promo codes. Loads of Galar-themed events are now happening alongside Max Raid battles in Pokémon GO, but as time goes on, there could be even more exciting rewards on the way.

The best rewards that have been offered through promo codes in the past were encounters with the Legendary Titans Registeel, Regirock, and Regice. These were shared as part of the Pokémon GO Tour: Hoenn event, giving Trainers perhaps the easiest Legendary Pokémon encounters in the history of Pokémon games. I'm keeping my fingers crossed it happens again soon.

What's Happening In Pokémon GO This Month?

Introducing GO , Reward Road, & New Pokémon Debuts

Every month brings new events and activities to the game, and most of them are free for all fans to partake in. However, that being said, this month will kick off a new feature called the GO . The GO and the paid GO Deluxe are new battle es being implemented into Pokémon GO that will allow you to earn additional rewards for a specific time, with the latter offering even more rewards.

The GO will operate similarly to the GO Tour: Unova Tour . The free version of the GO will be open to everyone in the available regions, but the GO Deluxe will require a purchase to claim its rewards.

In addition to this new change, which is still a testing feature and may not be available to all players at the moment, there are still a variety of other events taking place in Pokémon GO this month to participate in, including:

Many of these events focus on increasing the spawn rates of certain Pokémon, including Shiny variants and some debuting for the first time in Pokémon GO. Most events and special days usually last 1–3 days, and the limited time to participate in events can easily cause you to miss important rewards for reaching goals during these periods if you're not keeping up with them.

In addition to the events, April will also be the first month that Reward Road is available on the web store, not just the in-game store. This feature will serve as a monthly reward program where you can earn rewards based on eligible purchases from the Pokémon GO web store or in-game store. However, the web store will offer 2x the reward points that the in-game store does. Reward Road takes place each calendar month, with levels and rewards resetting on the last day of the month, so be sure to claim any rewards before then.

For now, that's everything you need to know about promo codes and what's happening in Pokémon GO in April 2025, but events are sometimes announced mid-month, so be sure to keep tabs on the in-game news section. Free rewards aren't released as often as they used to be, especially with the growing popularity of other Pokémon mobile games, but it's worth keeping an eye out, especially with other recent changes. Screen Rant will continue to update this page when any new rewards are released.
