Pokémon Sword and Shield have been busily shattering sales records after their launch in November, but Game Freak, Nintendo, and The Pokémon Company aren't stopping there. A new Gigantamaxed Pokémon (Snorlax!) is coming to Max Raid battles, beginning on December 4th and continuing into early January.

Check out an announcement trailer for Gigantamax Snorlax below, which also (officially) reveals the starter evolutions and Legendary Pokémon to be found in Sword and Shield.
