Pokemon Sword and Shield's first expansion, The Isle of Armor, launches this week, but you can snag one more free Pokemon before then. The Pokemon Company is giving away a free Galarian Meowth with its Hidden Ability, along with a handful of valuable items.

　　Galarian Meowth's Hidden Ability is Unnerve, which prevents the opposing Pokemon from eating a held berry. This week's free item bundle, meanwhile, includes 100 large Exp. Candies--good for leveling a Pokemon up quickly--as well as 50 Big Gold Nuggets, which can be sold at shops for a tidy sum.
