The Wild Area regularly features rotating raid spawns in Pokémon Sword & Shield, but players may want to take note of the latest event. Formerly exclusive to those who had save file from Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu!, Gigantamax Pikachu (and its shiny form) can be encountered and captured, but only for a limited time. Similarly, Gigantamax Eevee will be featured soon after, as well as Gigantamax Meowth. These are not obtainable through regular gameplay, so players who haven’t added them to their collection should take advantage of this opportunity.
From the official Pokémon website, the schedule will be as follows:
- Gigantamax Pikachu: May 11, 2020 – May 18, 2020
- Gigantamax Eevee: May 18, 2020 – May 25, 2020
- Gigantamax Meowth: May 25, 2020 – June 2, 2020
Let us know if you’ve already captured a shiny Gigantamax Pikachu! Which of the three is your favorite? I can’t help but be a fan of Gigantamax Eevee myself.

Caught Shiny Pikachunk. Trying to find a male one.
I think I like Meowth the best but all 3 are pretty good.
Since very little has been happening in the genuinely interesting news department, I’m just gonna ask y’all if anyone has seen/heard any fun rumors that could potentially be true. Please, please don’t respond with obvious fakes that contradict known facts.
They say that you can find a Shiny and I did but THE FREAKIN GAME FROZE WHEN I FINALLY GOT INTO A RAID
I’m also hearing it’s full odds
EVERYONE SHUT UP AND LOOK AT THIS

OK that’s pretty cool.
It’ll probably be a funny and enjoyable game.
It’s not the Paper Mario I’m looking for.
Got a legal Shiny Big CHUngus, I am more interesed in the Eevee one because I already had Let’s Go Pikachu so I already could get as many Big CHUngus as I wanted.
if anyone wants to sell their turnips in ACNH lemme know as mine are selling for 512 rn

That’s super mega exciting g
I think my days of trying to have a rotation of 11 pokemon are coming to a close. Right now im thinking my final Black 2 team since im headed to face Drayden now is going to be:
Serperior
Cofagrigus
Excadrill
Magmar
Crustle
Scrafty
with Sigliyph, Emolga and possibly Fraxure getting swapped in whenever needed.. which btw WHY DOES FRAXURE HAVE SUCH CRAPTASTIC DEFENSES
This is taking forever! I’ve been trying for a shiny Cubchoo or a shiny Eiscue for 3 months now.
Gigamax eevee is one of the laziest things gamefreak has ever done
i am a HUGE eevee fan
an i got 4 eevee
G – Max of course
