One of the best places to explore in Pokemon Sword and Shield is the Wild Area. The Wild Area is the open world section of the game that you can visit throughout your journey.

There are a lot of fun things you can do in the Wild area, such as participate in Max Raid Battles and catch rare Pokemon.

When you first visit the Wild Area, you’ll only be able to catch Pokemon that are level 20 and under, but you can try to fight higher level Pokemon to gain a lot of experience. The Pokemon you can find in the Wild Area will change depending on the time of day and the weather.

There are many hidden items and new Pokemon to find in the Wild Area, and it is quite large, so you might find yourself spending hours exploring and training instead of going to get the next gym badge.
