The concept of the Mystery Gifts has been around since the Generation II games. It was trickier back then because you needed to connect to peripherals and stuff.
Claiming Mystery Gifts is easier nowadays with the accessibility of the internet. Games like Pokemon Scarlet and Violet allow you to claim Mystery Gift codes online.
Thankfully, it’s also possible to claim Mystery Gifts in some ROM hacks like Pokemon Radical Red.
Unlike the normal means, Pokemon Radical Red Mystery Gift codes don’t expire, but you can only claim them anytime after completing a certain achievement.

What Are Mystery Gift Codes in Pokemon Radical Red?
Compared to regular Pokemon games, using a Mystery Gift code in Pokemon Radical Red doesn’t require you to connect to anything. The gift code will give you the Pokemon that you want right away.
The codes are built-in, and it is important to note that these codes are designed for Pokemon Radical Red version 4.1. It may work for older versions, but for now, they are most compatible with version 4.1.
How to Use Mystery Gift Codes
Mystery Gift codes in Pokemon Radical Red can be used in any Pokemon Center. All you have to do is talk to the NPC to the right of Nurse Joy.
The NPC offers multiple services, so just pick the “MYSTERY GIFT” option. Enter the code to get the Pokemon.
IMPORTANT: The codes will be usable once you defeat the Elite Four or when you’ve started the New Game+ mode. Don’t worry because the game will tell you what you need to do if you are unable to claim the Mystery Gift. Capitalization also matters as they are case-sensitive, so make sure that the letters should be in their upper or lower case. The game will tell you that it is invalid if that is the case.
