Pokemon Sword and Shield hosting Max Raid Battle event with Eevee and evolutions

Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield players can now partake in a new Max Raid Battle event based around Eevee.

Along with that creature itself, its evolutions are showing up more often. Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Glaceon, and Sylveon are all here. You may also encounter a Gigantamax Eevee or a Shiny Eevee if you’re lucky enough.

If you’d like to be involved with the Max Raid Battle event for Pokemon Sword and Shield featuring Eevee and its evolutions, first connect a Switch system to the internet. Then when a pillar of light appears from a Pokemon Den in the Wild Area, walk up to it and interact to have a Max Raid Battle begin.

Keep in mind that the new event will be live for all players until November 28 at 3:59 PM PT / 6:59 PM ET. It does not affect the Pokemon encountered within Dynamax Adventures.

Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield are both available on Switch as physical and digital titles. If you’re interested in checking out some of the previous Max Raid Battle events, get a look at our previous coverage here.
