New Pokemon Sword & Shield Max Raid Event, Freebie Now Live

By ESR on 3 februarie 2020

A new Max Raid event has begun in Pokemon Sword and Shield. While Gigantamax Alcremie appearance rates have returned to normal, you’re now more likely to come across its pre-evolved form, Milcery, in Max Raids for a limited time, and this one is special for a few reasons.

Milcery that you encounter in Max Raids may have the Gigantamax factor, meaning that they’ll evolve into an Alcremie that’s capable of Gigantamaxing. On top of that, two new types of Sweets–Ribbon and Star–have been added to Sword and Shield as rewards for completing Milcery Raids, which means you can evolve the Pokemon into two new variants of Alcremie.
