Read on below to learn about the latest Max Raid Battle event in Pokémon Sword and Shield:

A new Max Raid Battle event featuring Water-type Pokémon such as Poliwag, Spheal, Marill and Shiny Marill is now underway in Pokémon Sword and Shield.

For an opportunity to encounter these Pokémon in a Max Raid Battle, you’ll need to connect your Nintendo Switch system to the internet through Y-Comm or by selecting Mystery Gift in the X menu, then selecting Get the Wild Area News. After that, whenever you see a pillar of light shining from a Pokémon Den, you can walk up to the Pokémon Den and interact with it to start a Max Raid Battle with a Dynamax Pokémon. This event does not affect the Pokémon encountered within Dynamax Adventures.
