 Hello friends welcome back to another episode here on the channel I hope you're all doing great and for anyone new to the channel my name is Lee also known as Osiris. Today we're going to be discussing and going over a brand new max raid event that's happening right now in Pokemon Sword and Shield. As another month goes by we do get another one of these special weekend events and it is beginning right now on the 30th of April and we'll be running over this coming weekend. So without further ado let's jump over to our trusty source of therapy and let's check out the details. Lots going on in therapy today with the new release of Pokemon Snap. Very excited I've just got home from work hence the reason for this video actually going up a bit later today but you know better late than never but my copy have Pokemon Snap has arrived if you can if you can see it. I don't know if the green screen's making me again you'll disappear I think it is anyway it has arrived very excited for it so we'll have content on that very soon on the channel. Anyway getting into today's video the event itself the wild area has now shifted to in Pokemon Sword and Shield for an extra event with this for the next few days Meowth will be available with shiny glaring Meowth being available they are currently compiling all of the event data so you can check back later but you know what Joe has been on it and only event data has been compiled and we can take a look so like I said the event itself is running from the 30th today of April as of watching this when this goes up on the channel and it will run until Sunday the 2nd of May so we've got a few days for the event actually taking place the event dates aren't actually on this but I'm pretty sure it will run from the 30th till the 2nd of May so we normally have that time span Friday Saturday Sunday evening is when it shuts off and then reverts back to it will revert back to the previous dens but we'll actually do a dent update for May so that will be coming probably Monday keep an eye out for that so let's go through the motions it's all going to be about Meowth Meowth Festival you've got the glaring Meowth Alolan Meowth and you've got Kanto Meowth so you've got all the Meowth variants these are all your one star raids and it does look like you're going to get big nuggets so that's pretty decent and then the two star raids you're going to get more big nuggets not other items that are really jumping out to me but you've got a 17% chance pretty much across the board to get any of these in the one and two star raids the Pokemon will be exactly the same in Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield we'll check that out just before we go into the next bit same again for three star four star and then we get down to the juice and here we go this is what it's all about we're looking for these five star raids as we normally do in these event dens where we've got a couple of really unique Pokemon starting off with the G Max Meowth now this was a special kind of event Giganta Max Pokemon at the release of Sword and Shield and I don't know if we've been actually able to get access to this since then obviously we've got Max Mushrooms now with the Isle of Arma so you can just take a regular Meowth and then just give it the Max Mushroom and that will kind of overcome it but we do have access to a den with this Pokemon in it which is pretty cool in itself obviously not a shiny chance for the Giganta Max Meowth from this event but a very cool option for us to catch anyway so you've got an 8% chance of that spawning you've got 17% chance for the Kanto Meowth you've got a 33% chance of the Alolan Meowth 23% chance of the Galarian Meowth and then you've got a 2% chance of a shiny Galarian Meowth so this will be a square shiny Galarian Meowth very cool because it's a very cool shiny and obviously shiny berserker that gold color as well is one of my favorite shinies in Pokemon Sword and Shield items that we're going to get like I say there's nothing like spectacular coming out of this one again kind of like your standard items really and we'll move down to Pokemon Sword on Pokemon Sword we'll move down to Pokemon Shield and the event is exactly the same across the board so it doesn't matter which game you have or which game you're participating in this with okay well these are the details like I say running from the 30th of April until the 2nd of May let's hop back into game and show you how to get this Pokemon okay once back in game what you want to do is you want to get yourself an den with the event of promoted raid actually running in it so as you can see here this is the one that I previously had which should be nice I know it's the previous den so it has reverted back I've been online since so this is the last event den now to get these dens what you want to do is just visit any any random den in the wild area and drop a wishing piece into it and then check if it is going to be obviously this event is very easy to kind of spot because it will be the Meowth that will appear or Glaring Meowth and it shouldn't normally be in that den if it's not just go to another den drop another wishing piece it'll reset the previous den and kind of go in between them the dens that I use and grappled grove are the two closest together probably the easiest to do this event and spawn an event den but once you have your event den what you can do is just not come to the home screen you want to hit your menu screen want to go to mystery gift and then you want to go get the wild area and use and I know we do this every time but there's always that one or two new people that are coming in that don't know about this and it's always useful to do just for a reminder and I'm sure that the rest of you don't mind so to connect it to the internet it will just update all the dens in the wild area in the Isle of Armour and in the Crown Tundra so you get this message and then once you come back out into the game go back into the den and you can see you can see that it's updated so we've got in a lowland Meowth which is great and all because I was initially thinking we've got a five-star Meowth was what we want but we want the Galarian Meowth so what you want to do at this point if you want to skip through the dens to change it and try and get that five-star Galarian Meowth for the shiny chance what you want to do is just hit this invite others make sure you're offline when you do this and hit your home menu come down to system settings then down into system date and time make sure that your synchronized clock by the internet is off come down to date skip your date forward one date hit okay then come back to the home menu go back into the game quit out of the den and this will reset a day in the den it'll change the weather you can see it was a sandstorm and now it's snowing once you go back into the den you'll get 2000 watts you'll know that you've done it correctly and the pokemon should have changed which it has from a five star to a four star and you just want to repeat this over and over again until you come across that Galarian Meowth the five star one and then what you can do is save in front of it and check to see if it's shiny but we'll show you that process I'm just going to go through and skip until the point of actually getting it because it's always good to try and see if we are looking enough to get the shiny in these so you can see and look at the typing as well of the pokemon because a lot of the sprites are going to be the same you can see this one is the Galarian one but it's a four star just keep an eye on that it will make this a lot easier obviously the Kantonian Meowth is a normal type the Alolan is a dark type and the Galarian is a steel type making it a little bit easier to kind of distinguish between the sprites that you're getting there because sometimes it can be a little bit tricky but we'll keep going and we'll be right back when we get that five star okay we finally got the steel type here which is the Galarian Meowth and it is a five star at this point what you want to do once you've reached the five star Galarian Meowth raid you want to just save your game in front of it because if it's not shiny you can then reset and then come back in and start the day skipping all over again until you hit your next five star Galarian Meowth and then you can check it again so what you want to do is just come in to check it don't invite others just jump straight in and I'm praying one of these times we are going to get it on our first attempt there is a lot of you down the comment section that have said a lot of the time you do get it straight away and is it it is it is it is I think it is we've got the thumbnail here for the video we've got the Galarian Meowth how oh this is perfect I can't believe it okay a bit of the top reaction here but we do get the shiny Galarian Meowth on our first try it was gonna happen one of these times and I'm so pleased it's happened today very fitting so this wraps up the video what I'm gonna do over this weekend is host this over on our discord for anyone that does want it it won't be this evening it will probably be tomorrow evening I'll post up on discord when it's gonna be if you want to join the discord come over and try your chances of getting it on saturday sunday evening and then hop over join the discord it's a great community anyway and I'll uh I'll update you all I'm gonna reset this now so I can kind of come in keep this and then help whoever is having a hard time getting it get this Meowth over the weekend so um I'm gonna wrap it up there friends that's the event for the weekend it's a very special one a very nice way to end the video finally and um I hope you have a great weekend if you've got pokemon snap I hope you're enjoying it I'm looking forward to getting into it and having uh doing some content on it and reliving all those old memories that I had from the
