Pokemon Sword & Shield Adding Gigantamax Snorlax Next Week

A new Gigantamax Pokemon will begin appearing soon in Pokemon Sword and Shield. As part of the games' latest trailer, The Pokemon Company officially revealed Gigantamax Snorlax, and you'll have your first chance to encounter one starting December 4.

As with other Gigantamax Pokemon, it appears the only way to catch Gigantamax Snorlax is to first defeat it in a Max Raid. The Pokemon will appear in Max Raid dens from December 4 to early January. In order to be able to encounter it, you'll need to either connect to the internet while exploring the Wild Area or go into Mystery Gift and select "Get the Wild Area News" to ensure your game is up to date.

While Snorlax is already well-known for its laziness, Gigantamax Snorlax moves so little that it has a field of grass and a giant berry tree growing on its belly. When Snorlax Gigantamaxes, its Normal-type attacks become G-Max Replenish, which deals damage and also restores any berries that Snorlax or its allies have eaten during battle. You can check out footage of Gigantamax Snorlax in action in the trailer above.

Snorlax isn't the only Gigantamax Pokemon you can encounter in Max Raids until early January. Gigantamax Butterfree will also appear until then. Sword players can also encounter Gigantamax Drednaw more often in Max Raids, while Shield players can encounter Gigantamax Corviknight.

The 1.4.1 hotfix patch for Total War: Three Kingdoms is now live. The latest update fixes numerous issues, makes some important adjustments, and rebalances unit costs in multiplayer. Among the bug fixes, Cao Song has been giving a personality change so that he's no longer identified as an Incompetent Leader (good for him). An issue where generals and heroes were not spawning at full strength has also been fixed, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will no longer spawn twice in Liu Bei's campaign, and Guo Jia's spawning age has been corrected. Crashes are now less likely to happen in existing save games for the new court feature, too, but it's still recommended that players start a new campaign. Particular attention has also been paid to Liu Hong's campaign, including fixing a bug that reduced fervour rather than increasing it when the Tax Collector building was constructed, reducing the starting strength of the Imperial Army, and helping to rebalance the amount of money avail...
