How to redeem these limited-edition icons
If you’re new to Nintendo Switch, you can get these special icons by opening the Nintendo Switch Online app on your phone or tablet and checking the Missions & Rewards section.
In the Missions & Rewards section, you’ll find icons you can buy with Platinum Points, sorted by game. Just find Pokémon Legends: Z-A to see all the available icons for that game.
To get these icons, you need to be a Nintendo Switch Online subscriber or member. Having enough Platinum Points isn’t enough – you must already have a subscription to redeem them.
Adding more icons lets you personalize your Nintendo Switch profile, so your friends can easily spot you when you’re playing your favorite games.
How to get more Platinum Points
Platinum Points are rewards you earn by finishing certain tasks on platforms like the Nintendo Switch Online app and the My Nintendo website. You can think of them as a special type of loyalty currency.
Many of these tasks are quite simple, like playing a game once a week, saving your progress, and connecting to Nintendo’s online features.
