Pokemon Sword Shield Glastrier and Spectrier

In what could be the last major Max Raid Battle event for Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield, Glastrier and Spectrier are being featured. Players can team up with other Trainers to defeat the Legendary Pokemon in battle.

Unfortunately, you won’t actually be able to catch these creatures. They’re only intended to provide a challenge in battle.

More distributions for Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield are on the way to GameStop and Target, with players having the opportunity to obtain Genesect, Volcanion, and Marshadow. This applies to fans in North America and Europe – those in Australia and New Zealand can participate at their local JB Hi-Fi. Stores will be handing out codes for the Mythical Pokemon.
