Pokémon Sword & Shield: 14 Essential Pokémon You Need To Capture | Useful Pokémon Guide

December 13, 2019 by Kevin Thielenhaus

Don’t miss out on these 12 incredibly useful Pokémon in Sword and Shield.

Eternatus

The legendary Eternatus is a giant creature you’ll face in one of the last battles of the story, and you’ll catch him automatically as you complete the game. You can’t miss Eternatus, but don’t just dump it in your box! Eternatus is one of the best Pokémon for G-Max Raid Dens. Boosting Eternatus to Level 100 makes it possible to solo 5-Star Raids in the Wild Area. That makes Eternatus incredibly useful.

  • How To Catch: Complete the story.

Alcremie

The all-around best Max Raid support Pokémon, Alcremie can use the Decorate move to sharply increase Attack and Special Attack for your allies. You can also get Aromatherap to cure all Status effects — it has even more handy movies, and they’re all perfect for multi-party raids. If you want to help your friends, Alcremie is the best choice for raid support.

  • How To Catch: Find a Milcerie in Route 4, then evolve by equipping a ‘Sweet’ and spinning. Your Pokémon will automatically become Milcerie!
