Pokemon Z-A codes not working?

If you're having trouble claiming rewards, check these common issues related to Pokemon Z-A codes:

• The code has expired. Many codes have a short shelf life, sometimes lasting only a day or two. If you’re seeing an error, the code may have already been deactivated. Check the status tag next to each code on our list.
• Double-check for typos. Capitalization doesn’t matter for these codes, but spelling does. Even one wrong letter or number will cause the code to fail — copying "PREPAR1NG" from our list is the safest option.
• Already redeemed. Codes are single-use. If you’ve redeemed a code before — even months ago — it’s permanently claimed on your account and can’t be used a second time.
• Platform or region mismatch. With versions on Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, not every code works across all platforms. Double-check that the code applies to the version you’re playing.
• Check your in-game mail. In Pokemon Z-A, rewards from codes like "PREPAR1NG" are often sent to your in-game mailbox rather than appearing on screen. Check your mail, gift box, or inbox after redeeming to collect your items.
