My Nintendo Rewards
In celebration of Pokémon Day, we've introduced two Down Under-exclusive My Nintendo rewards which are available to claim now on My Nintendo Store using Platinum Points.
Komala Magnet – 120 Platinum Points Komala spends its entire life sleeping. It feeds on leaves that contain a potent poison only Komala can break down.
Kangaskhan Sticker – 90 Platinum Points Although it’s carrying its baby in a pouch on its belly, Kangaskhan is swift on its feet. It intimidates its opponents with quick jabs.
Download Pokémon Headbands
Download, print, and colour your very own Pokémon headbands! Choose from three designs: Pikachu, Eevee, and Jigglypuff.
Pikachu Headband (PDF, 282 kB)
Jigglypuff Headband (PDF, 290 kB)
After you’ve downloaded the headbands, open the file on your computer and then print them onto A4 paper. You’ll need a pair of scissors to cut everything out, so safety first! You'll also need some string or a piece of yarn to wear the headband.
Alrighty, that’s it for now, but be sure to check out our Pokémon Hub for more Pokémon fun!
Good luck on all the adventures you take this year, Trainer!
