Nintendo has now published the official patch notes for Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield version 1.3.0. There aren’t many surprises here, as support has been added for The Crown Tundra and more Pokemon.

Below are the full patch notes:

A new Pikachu distribution for Pokemon Sword and Shield is now live. Alola Cap Pikachu is now available to players.

Follow the steps below to claim Alola Cap Pikachu.

It seems that Pokemon Sword/Shield players in Japan will have a chance to unlock exclusive in-game rewards due to a promotion starting November 20, 2020. According to Serebii, when Japanese players purchase certain Pokemon merchandise (including cards) after this start date, they will receive a code for one of many in-game Pokemon/Poke balls. 

The prizes include: Genesect, 20 Cyrite Ore, Fast Ball, Level Ball, Love Ball, Volcanion, Moon Ball, Heavy Ball, Friend Ball, Lure Ball, Marshadow, Safari Ball, Sport Ball and Master Ball. It’s unclear how long this promotion will last, but hopefully many players will be able to grab these items and Pokemon before they are gone.
