Max Raid Battle With a Friend
Recommended Videos
If you enjoy participating in Pokemon Go’s Raids, you will be glad to know that a similar feature exists in Sword and Shield. These are called Max Raid Battles and they are the only way to catch certain Pokemon in the Galar region.
In the Wild Area, you can tell if there is an active Max Raid Battle ready if you see a pink or purple beacon of light coming out of a den. You can choose to battle with NPCs, but it’s a lot more exciting to battle with friends.
If you choose to invite others, the people from your Switch’s friend list will be able to join you through Y-Comm. It’s fun to coordinate with friends on the best strategies, such as who will Dynamax their Pokemon.
