Water Type Max Raid Battle Event Announced for Pokémon Sword and Shield

Pokémon Sword and Shield players have a new event to look forward to. A Water Type Max Raid Battle Event has been announced, bringing special Gigantamax Pokémon to the game.

The event is set to run from March 25 to March 28, giving trainers a limited time to participate. During this period, players will have an increased chance of encountering Gigantamax Drednaw and Kingler in Max Raid Battles.

For those who don’t know, Gigantamax Pokémon are special variations of Pokémon that have different appearances and stronger abilities during battles. In this event, players will have the opportunity to capture these unique Water Type Pokémon.

To join a Max Raid Battle, trainers need to connect their Nintendo Switch consoles to the internet and use the Y-Comm feature to connect with other players. Once connected, they can locate and participate in Max Raid Battles.

By defeating Gigantamax Drednaw and Kingler, players will earn various rewards, including Berries, Exp. Candies, and at times, rare items. Trainers will also have a chance to catch these powerful Gigantamax Pokémon and add them to their teams.

The Water Type Max Raid Battle Event is a great opportunity for trainers to enhance their Pokémon collection with rare and powerful creatures. So mark your calendars and get ready to dive into these exciting battles from March 25 to March 28!
