Save 20% on Pokemon Scarlet and Violet ahead of launch

Both Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have been hit with a big discount, allowing you to save 20% overall - by adding a special promo code, you can get them for £39.99 each at Currys instead of almost their typical RRP of £49.99.

To receive that £10 reduction on Pokemon Scarlet or Violet, you just have to enter the code STARTER20 at checkout (without it, you won't get the full saving). And although you obviously won't receive them right away, due to the release date being 18 November, you still aren't likely to find them much cheaper even with this year's Black Friday Pokemon deals coming up. 

If you'd prefer, you can also get exactly the same offer with a sweet bonus travel mug featuring Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's starters for exactly the same price. With there being no downside to doing that, we'd probably opt for this option while stock lasts.

Anyway, considering how these two games are some of the most anticipated releases of the year (not to mention the fact that they're so new they're not even out yet), this is one of the best Black Friday gaming deals we've seen so far. It's just the start, too; we're also seeing 26% off Switch games at Amazon, so keep your eyes peeled to make the most of those offers.

Save £10 - promo code STARTER20,

Pokemon Scarlet / Violet | £49.99 £39.99 with code STARTER20 at Currys
Save £10 - So long as you add the special promo code STARTER20, you'll be able to get a much-appreciated 20% off the total price on a Pokemon Scarlet or Violet pre-order. That's the lowest price we've seen so far, and we can't see it being bettered any time soon.
