Worlds 2024 Avatar Tee Code

Although the exact timing hasn’t been announced, there will also be a code to redeem for a 2024 Worlds Tee avatar item, featuring the adorable costumed Pikachu in its scuba gear. The code will be displayed on the Twitch broadcast at some point during the Pokemon GO World Championship stream.

How Pokemon GO Twitch Drops Work

Twitch drops are rewarded based on your view time, meaning you will need to tune in to the Pokemon GO live stream for the allotted time to receive each drop. Once you’ve met the requirements, you should get a pop-up claim message on Twitch that will give further instructions on how to claim your reward.

In the past, it’s been necessary to link your Twitch and Pokemon GO accounts in order to redeem the drops from your Twitch Drops inventory. If you’re planning on tuning in to enjoy the Pokemon GO Twitch Drops during reward, you may want to take some time to link your accounts now so you’re all set when the World Championships begin on August 16.

Since there are Timed Research drops, you will also need to complete in-game tasks in order to receive the rewards once you receive your Research drop. If you’re looking for more to do in Pokemon GO, these free drops will certainly add more to your task list!
