Big Max Raid
Battles against Legendary Pokémon are waiting for you in Pokémon Sword and
Pokémon Shield. Until June
19, 2022, at 4:59 p.m. PDT, Gigantamax
Urshifu (Single Strike Style) and Gigantamax Urshifu (Rapid Strike Style) will
appear more often in Pokémon Dens. Although these mighty Wushu Pokémon won’t
give you a chance to catch them, you’ll be rewarded with valuable items you
wouldn’t normally receive from Max Raid Battles by defeating them.
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 in
the Wild Area or elsewhere, 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.
Be sure to read our Pokémon
Sword and Pokémon Shield Max Raid Battle Tips article for advice
on how to topple these opponents. Don’t wait, though—you don’t want to miss out
on the chance to face these powerful Pokémon!
