All details of the Pokemon Sword and Shield Easter event
The "Baby Pokémon" have invaded the Wild Swords of the Shield Pokémon Raids and we will find them with a much higher probability than before. In addition, by defeating them in battle we will obtain more candies and items to enhance their attributes. In addition to the Pokémon mentioned above, there are a couple that will be exclusive to both versions: Garbodor for the Pokémon Shield Raids and Copperajah for the Pokémon Sword Raids.

Among the items that we can obtain as a reward from these Raids include the Lasso of Destiny, Eternal Stones and Belts of Power, which are used for effective Pokemon breeding. To help this work we will have a much higher probability of Ditto appearing in these raids, so we can participate in various until we find one with the perfect IVs. We remember that IV (Individual Values) are the Individual Strengths of each Pokémon (Attack, Special Attack, Speed, Defense, Special Defense and Health Points) and they are usually transferred to the baby Pokémon, so if we want to obtain a specific species with perfect attributes we must get a Ditto with these characteristics first.
