A new Max Raid event has begun in Pokemon Sword & Shield giving trainers the chance to catch Shiny Wooloo and Dubwool.

Whether it’s taking on other players in Ranked Battles or simply exploring thegame’simpressive world, there’s always something to work towards in Sword & Shield.
Despite this, trainers will naturally want to play parts of the game that receive updates and feature exclusive events. Well, in Sword & Shield, Max Raid Battles provide exactly that with Game Freak regularly giving players the opportunity to collect rare Pokemon.
This week is no different, with a limited-time Wooloo event running across the entire weekend.
