Pokémon Sword & Shield
The Wild Area Event has now shifted in Pokémon Sword & Shield. With this, Gigantamax Eevee has left the boosted raids and with this, Gigantamax Meowth has been added as the focus of the event. With this, players can get multiple Gigantamax Meowth and can now even find Shiny Gigantamax Meowth and the first time you can get it with its Hidden Ability. This is presently the only way to get Gigantamax Meowth as it was event distribution only and the event ended in early January. This event runs until 12:59 UTC on June 2nd 2020
Edit @ 01:15: We have updated our section with full details of this Max Raid Battle Event, as well as updated our ItemDex for TR locations.
