Max Raid events were first introduced during the launch of Pokemon Sword and Shield last November 2019. The new feature has Trainers going into Pokemon dens located in the game’s Wild Area. Joining forces with other Trainers, they need to battle against and defeat Dynamax Pokemon for a chance to capture them. If lucky, Trainers could encounter a special type of Pokemon that can Dynamax into its unique Gigantamax form....

For clarification, partner Pokemon are those who travel beside trainers outside the traditional Pokeballs. This was first introduced back in Pokemon Yellow, when Pikachu would follow the trainer around, and has appeared in a few games since including Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver as well as the recent Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu and Let’s Go Eevee. As with all rumors, it’s best to take this news with a grain of salt, but this rumor has more official backing than most rumors/leaks currently out there....

As a part of TiMi’s desire to make active changes to Pokemon Unite, there has already been a list of nerfs and buffs only a couple of weeks after the game’s release. Some changes were more disruptive than others, and it will likely take some time for players to reassess Pokemon Unite’s meta after the short amount of time spent figuring out the strengths of each Pokemon. Even still, it’s quickly become clear which Pokemon are more viable options than others....

Another female streamer who is, unfortunately, no stranger to abuse from commenters is Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys, one of Twitch’s biggest icons and a significant member of the streaming community in general. Pokimane has talked at length before about some of the inappropriate behavior of her followers, explaining to fans why she needed bodyguards at TwitchCon and even having to tell her viewers to stop asking her for gamer girl bathwater following Belle Delphine’s now-infamous internet stunt....

Officers from British Transport Police, the Metropolitan Police, Merseyside Police and West Midlands Police also seized over 100 weapons in operations carried out between November 2019 and Mach 2020. They also found and closed nearly 140 deal lines, numbers linked to unique phone numbers which are used by people to buy drugs. The U.K Home Secretary Priti Patel has made clamping down on county lines drugs gangs a major priority, with the latest police activity funded by £5 million from the government’s £25 million package to tackle county lines gangs....

“Management continues to spread misinformation about social distancing,” the letter said, “including telling employees that a person is not at risk of exposure unless they stood within an individual who tested positive for more than 15 minutes.” “We also audit all these processes and ask employees for feedback, then use that information to try and continuously improve,” the blog post read. “And we take compliance seriously—if an employee repeatedly or intentionally violates our safety procedures, we’ll move quickly to address it and terminate them if necessary....

The East Lansing Police Department has launched a social media manhunt for the Michigan State fan who held up a "Burn The Couch" sign during Saturday's Big Ten Championship game in Indianapolis. Police haven't listed a particular reason why they're looking for the sign-toting man, but Michigan State students did burn a couch after the Spartans posted a 34-24 victory over Ohio State. More than a thousand fans and students gathered to watch the couch burn, in what the police department called a "large civil disturbance" that resulted in multiple arrests....

The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office was alerted to the possibly abandoned infant on Wednesday morning after it received two 911 calls from people who complained of a woman “hiding in the bushes and ringing the doorbell.” When they interviewed the “frantic” 37-year-old woman, they learned she had an infant son. The burrs on her pants prompted a search of a nearby wooded area. “Thankfully, deputies were able to determine a baby was missing, which triggered an immediate large response and search, and they were able locate the child,” Sheriff Michael Bouchard said in a statement....

The “Choice” held items all have the same general use. Choice Band, Choice Scarf, and Choice Specs all boost one stat, but lock Pokemon into repeating the first move it uses. It’s a tricky handicap to handle, but it’s one that many Pokemon Scarlet & Violet players are willing to take on for a free stat boost. RELATED: Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: How to Get Choice Scarf The trouble is that while some important held items can be purchased early on in the game from stores, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet players can’t get a Choice Band until the late-game....

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet received their second trailer at the beginning of June, and the video revealed new details and Pokemon, as well as the Professors that will start the player’s adventure. In addition to the starters Fuecoco, Quaxly, and Sprigatito and freshly unveiled Pokemon like Pawmi, Lechonk, and Smoliv, there are returning Pokemon like Flaffy, Meowth, and Pikachu. Reddit user Financial-Channel-71 has also noted that Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will break a series tradition for Venonat....

The Ancient Paradox Pokemon in Pokemon Scarlet reportedly include Amoonguss, Jigglypuff, Misdreavus, Volcarona, Salamence, Donphan, and Magneton (with Ancient Suicune supposedly coming in Pokemon Scarlet DLC), while the Future Paradox Pokemon for Violet include Delibird, Gallade, Hariyama, Volcarona, Donphan, Tyranitar, and Hydreigon (with future Virizion joining via DLC). Many of these Pokemon change typings and are all dual types, with many fans speculating on these and seemingly learning about them through Pokemon Scarlet and Violet leaks....

However, a recent leak has seemingly been reinforced by Khu. There have been rumors of a new Ghost Pokemon in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet that is based on a coin. This has led to a lot of speculation that it is a Ghost/Steel type, and it could be that it somehow relates to piracy. Rumors and speculation aside though, all fans know is a coin Ghost Pokemon possibly exists in the new games, but Khu has added an important detail for any interested fans....

While just a one part of a greater whole of the Pokemon experience, fishing has an extraordinary amount of potential that Game Freak has so far not tapped into. Other mechanics in Pokemon, however small, have seen improvements as of late, such as the recent changes to shiny-hunting in Pokemon Sword and Shield. Fishing then seems to have fallen by the wayside, relegated to the tired wait-for-the-exclamation-mark mechanic with just a handful of rods to choose from....

Despite being several generations old, Charizard is still a good addition to any team. Furthermore, with Generation 9’s new Terastallization gimmick, players can turn their Charizard into the dragon it was always meant to be. There are currently no Charmanders in the wild, so it is still a bit tricky to get a Charizard, though it is possible thanks to a recent Tera Raid event. Seeing it now highlights how much attention Game Freak is still giving the classic starter....

Although Sun and Moon were the third pair of Pokemon games on the Nintendo 3DS (with a fourth still to come), they arguably felt the most unique. Generation 6 titles on the handheld included Pokemon X and Y, which were the series’ first step into 3D and felt basic; as well as Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, remakes that radically shook up the source material compared to Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl but were ultimately retreading old ground....

RELATED: Underrated Electric Pokemon (That Are Actually Very Strong) There are usually many new and cool Pokemon introduced every generation, and ever since Pokemon Sun and Moon, regional variances have become part of those introductions. Inspired by the real-world United Kingdom, the Galar region is no exception to the formula. Beyond the core game, players can compete online against other actual trainers using their strongest and coolest Pokemon. A balanced team that can defeat and counter the strategies of one’s opponents should be assembled by anyone who hopes to succeed in online combat....

Breeding Basics Breeding Pokemon in Pokemon Sword and Shield works similarly to how games have handled breeding in the past. When a player leaves two Pokemon at the Pokemon Nursery (either on Route 5 or Bridge Field in the Wild Area), the two Pokemon will have an egg (assuming they are compatible). The rate that an egg is produced is determined by a number of factors, including if the Pokemon were originally caught by the trainer, if they are the same species, and if the trainer has the Oval Charm....
