Pokemon Sword/Shield now featuring rabbit-like Pokemon in Max Raid Battle event

The latest Max Raid Battle event is now live in Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield – and it’s an Easter celebration.

Azumarill, Lopunny, and Diggersby are more likely to appear. Lucky players may even encounter a Shiny Azumarill. And if that wasn’t enough, Gigantamax Cinderance may appear in five-star Max Raid Battles. While it can’t be caught, it’s possible to earn extra candies by defeating it.

To participate in this new event, connect your Switch system to the internet. After this, when you see a pillar of light shining from a Pokemon Den in the Wild Area, walk up to it and interact to kick off a Max Raid Battle.

Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield will be hosting its latest Max Raid Battle event until April 4 at 4:59 PM PT / 7:59 PM ET.
