July's Pokemon Presents didn't feature any major mainline game announcements, but you're eating good if you play one of the Pokemon live service games. Sizable updates are coming to the whole suite of Pokemon mobile games, including Pokemon Go, Pokemon Masters Ex, Pokemon Cafe Remix and Pokemon Sleep (though Pokemon TCG Pocket was left out to dry this time around).
New playable characters are coming to Pokemon Unite, and we got additional news about Pokemon Champions and Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Even people who don't play too many games got their fill of good news as the release date was revealed for Netflix's Pokemon Concierge.
If you have a keen eye, though, you also spotted nearly half a dozen promo codes and free item reveals scattered throughout today's Pokemon Presents stream. But, just in case, here are all the free Pokemon goodies you can redeem right now.

The next Pokemon Go Fest will be a massive one -- literally. Pokemon Go Fest Global 2025: Max Finale takes place between Aug. 23 and Aug. 24, incentivizing players to take on challenging Gigantamax battles in order to catch the game's newest legendary, Eternatus.
In order to gear up for these fights, you can redeem the GOFESTMAX promo code in the Pokemon Go web store to unlock a special timed research to power up your Pokemon box. This research gets you a free Gigantamax Cinderace, Rillaboom or Inteleon, which you can otherwise only catch after battling them in some of the game's hardest raids.
