Pokémon Sun and Moon - Mega Beedrill, Audino, Mawile, and Medicham download codes for Beedrillite, Audinite, Mawilite and Medichamite

Download codes and instructions for how to get the distribution Mega Stones.

Following on from their initial distribution to players who took part in an earlier online tournament, the Beedrillite and Mawilite Mega Stones for Mega Beedrill and Mega Mawile are now available via download code distrubution.

Alongside those, however, is a surprise distrubution of the Medichamite and Audinite for Mega Medicham and Mega Audino, too. That means four new Mega Stones added to the pile of Mega Evolutions available in Pokémon Sun and Moon, and you can read on below for how to download the Mega Stones and what the download codes are for Beedrillite, Mawilite, Medichamite and Audinite.

Mega Beedrill, Mega Medicham, Mega Audino, and Mega Mawile download codes for Pokémon Sun and Moon

Rather than using a QR code, like has been done before with giveaways like that of the mythical Pokémon Magearna, the distrubution event for Beedrillite, Mawilite, Audinite, and Medichamite works like the one for Marshadow, with it being tackled via a download code for a Mystery Gift.

  • Mega Beedrill, Mega Mawile, Mega Audino, Mega Medicham Mega Stones code: INTIMIDATE

Here's how, exactly, to download the Mega Stones in question via Mystery Gift:

  1. Select Mystery Gift on the main menu.
  2. Select Receive Gift.
  3. Select Get with Code/Password, then Yes, and then Yes again to connect to the Internet.
  4. Enter your code.
  5. Watch as you receive Mega Stones.
  6. Speak to the deliveryman in any Pokémon Center to pick up your Mega Stones.
  7. Be sure to save your game!

When does the Beedrillite, Mawilite, Audinite, and Medichamite Mega Stone giveaway end?

We finally have an end date for the giveaways now, and it's a little closer than we thought. All of the Mega Stone codes will stop working at 23.59 UTC on October 31st, 2017.

While the codes are live, we suggest you download the Mega Stones as soon as possible - because the Mega Stones as soon as possible just in case - and, you know, because the Mega Evolutions for Beedrill, Mawile, Audino and Medicham are definitely worth having access to anyway.

It's also worth noting that you could have had your hands on the periodically-released Mega Stones slightly earlier, if you took part in specific online competitions when they were announced.

In this case, Beedrillite and Mawilite were first made available to players back in March, if you took part in the 2017 International Championships February.

This is essentially the format for all of the Mega Stones: entrants into specific tournaments like the Kanto X Alola Regional Rumble Competition, or the monthly Championships, will receive downloads for the stones soon after, and those Mega Stones will then be made available to all players via download code about a month later.

We've compiled a complete list of Pokémon Sun and Moon Mega Stone locations in order to help you out with how and where to find all of them, but above is a quick list of all the Mega Stones you can get via download code specifically.

Finally, remember to take a look at our guide to Pokémon Bank, seeing as not all Pokémon, like those listed above, are available to catch in Sun and Moon!
