Pokemon Sword/Shield hosting Ghost-themed Max Raid Battle event

Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield just kicked off a new Max Raid Battle event.

Ghost-themed Pokemon are being featured here, including Gengar, Drifblim, and Chandelure. If you’re lucky enough, you may encounter a Gigantamax Gengar or a Shiny Chandelure.

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 August 22 at 4:59 PM PT / 7:59 PM ET.
