In Sword and Shield Pokémon 3 legendaries are available, that is Zacian, Zamazenta e Eternatus. In this new guide we will reveal all their information and how you can unlock and capture them.
How to catch them
Unlike other titles in the series, in Spada and Scudo the two legendary covers cannot be obtained before completing the title.
In fact, the first of the trio to be captured will be Eternatus. This very powerful Pokémon can be faced shortly before the final battle with the champion through a RAID.
Defeated, a cutscene will start in which our coach will throw a pokéball at him, and his capture will be automatic.
Faced the last fight and passed the credits, you will have to head towards the Sanctuary of the Sleeping Wood and, after watching a cutscene, you will have to face Hop.
Once defeated, you will be immediately challenged by Brandobaldo (o Scudobaldo, depending on the version), a new and mysterious trainer.
Beat him too, you will first have to head to the laboratory Brassbury and, at the end of the movies, move to the stadium Turffield.
Before doing this, we advise you to withdraw and use Eternatus, since its peculiar move, the Dynamax Cannon, it can be very useful for the next fights.
At this point you will have to face a series of Dynamax fights in different gyms, which will also reward you with the card rare of every gym leader in the region.
After several battles you will return to Knuckleburgh, where you will face first Brandobaldo (o Scudobaldo) and then, finally, Zacian (or Zamazenta, depending on which version you are playing).
This will be the only time you can catch the legendary, so you have to be careful not to knock him out.
