If causing chaos and nearly destroying a hobby for Pokémon card game fans wasn't enough for scalpers, they are now targeting video games as well.
A shiny Miraidon and Koraidon giveaway for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is set to start on Sept. 26 in select stores in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand via physical serial codes. Some fans are already reporting that store owners and employees are giving these codes away early and in large amounts to people who visit their stores, clearing stocks of 50 codes before the event even started.
