Pokémon fans can now obtain a free Shiny Volcanion for the first time ever, with Game Freak revealing that the Kalos Mythical is now available in Pokémon Home. Players need to complete several tasks in Pokémon Legends Z-A first to obtain the rare variant of the legendary Pokémon. The release comes after a decade of waiting for the release of the rare Kalos Legendary Pokémon, which has been Shiny-locked since its release in 2004. Players must complete several steps before receiving the free version of the Legendary Pokémon. It's unclear how long this distribution will last, but it's assumed it will be permanent once the event is deemed permanent.
