Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I still get the code if I miss the live broadcast?
A: Yes, rebroadcasts throughout the championship weekend also count toward the 30-minute watch requirement. The streams run from November 21-23, 2025, with replays available during off-hours. However, you must claim and redeem your code before the November 28, 2025, deadline at 3:00 PM PST, regardless of when you watched.
Q: What makes this Araquanid special compared to regular catches?
A: This Araquanid represents the exact build ItsAXN used during his championship run, making it a commemorative encounter rather than just a standard spawn. The accompanying rewards—15 Candy XL, multiple TMs, and an Elite Charged TM—provide exceptional value for GO Battle League players. The Elite Charged TM alone typically requires significant investment through special events or premium passes, making this research particularly worthwhile for competitive trainers.
