Watch the 2023 Oceanic International Championships (OCIC) for a code to receive a special Pokémon for your Pokémon Scarlet or Pokémon Violet game. When the code appears during the broadcast of the big event, you’ll be able to add Jiseok Lee’s Garganacl to your collection—and maybe even your next competitive team!

Garganacl wasn’t the most heralded Pokémon going into the first major event featuring Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet, but Jiseok Lee showcased the power of the Rock Salt Pokémon when it helped Jiseok earn a first place finish at the 2023 San Diego Regional Championships in January. Garganacl has proven itself as an instrumental Pokémon to slow down the pace of battle, as it whittles down opposing Pokémon with Salt Cure and protects its partner from powerful spread moves like Earthquake and Make It Rain with Wide Guard.
