Owners of Pokémon Sun & Moon can now get their hands on the Mythical Pokémon Magearna — though there are some stipulations.

Unlike Mythical Pokémon events of past games, the Magearna distribution will last indefinitely, as the QR code does not expire.

However, according to the official Pokémon website, there are a few requirements players must meet before attempting to receive Magearna:

1. Complete the main story

2. Choose the QR Scanner function

3. Line up the QR code for Magearna while pressing the R Button

4. Visit the deliveryman at the Antiquities of the Ages shop in Hau’oli City to get Magearna

5. Be sure to save your game!
