GameStop is offering exclusive pre-order bonuses for Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Pokemon Legends: Z-A is the long-awaited sequel to Pokemon Legends: Arceus, which was one of the highest-rated Pokemon games in years. Pokemon Legends: Z-A will carry on Arceus‘ legacy by offering similar gameplay mechanics, but gives fans revamped combat and a fresh setting to explore.
Pokemon Legends: Z-A is primed to be one of Nintendo’s biggest releases of the year. The game will be available for both the original Switch and the Switch 2, with the Switch 2 version coming with performance enhancements that won’t be available on older hardware. It’s likely that many hardcore Pokemon fans are already sold on Pokemon Legends: Z-A regardless of which version of the game they plan on getting, and so they may be wondering where they should pre-order from. As it so happens, GameStop has multiple pre-order bonuses for Pokemon fans that pre-order Legends: Z-A from the store.
Pokemon Legends: Z-A GameStop Pre-Order Bonuses
- Trench Coat and Pants Set
- Pokemon Legends Z-A Tote Bag
A GameStop Pokemon Legends: Z-A pre-order gets players a code that unlocks the Trench Coat and Pants set. The code will be emailed within two business days of when one’s pre-order ships or at pick-up in-store. Additionally, those that pre-order Pokemon Legends: Z-A from GameStop and show up for the midnight release will have the chance to receive an exclusive tote bag based on the game. GameStop customers that want the tote bag should bring their receipt, whether they pre-ordered online or in-store, for proof of purchase. The GameStop Pokemon Legends: Z-A pre-order bonuses will only be available while supplies last, so Pokemon fans should keep that in mind.
GameStop isn’t the only retailer offering pre-order bonuses for Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Online Walmart pre-orders get players 1 of 3 random Pokemon Legends Z-A starter pins, while Best Buy customers can get a free gaming mat that features the Lumiose City map. Best Buy Rewards Members can also get a free month of Nintendo Switch Online. A caveat is that the Best Buy mat is only available to those that pre-order the individual game, as opposed to the Pokemon Legends: Z-A Switch 2 bundle. Pokemon Center pre-orders will get players 1 of 3 random standing pins, also based on the game’s starters.
On top of the pre-order bonuses, Pokemon Legends: Z-A players can also enjoy an Early Purchase Bonus if they buy the game by February 28, 2026. The Early Purchase bonus gets fans a Ralts holding a Gardevoirite Stone that players can redeem via Mystery Gift once the game is out. Those that decide to buy a digital copy of Pokemon Legends: Z-A can also get 100 Poke Balls for free, with the February 28, 2026 deadline applying to that bonus as well.
