Nintendo and Game Freak recently announced thePokemon SwordandShieldexpansion pass, which will add two large expansions to the games. The Isle of Armor expansion will be released first, this coming June, and it is bringing with it some new Pokemon. However,Pokemon SwordandShieldfans don’t have to wait to June to add one of the new Isle of Armor Pokemon to their collection.
After downloading the latestPokemon SwordandShieldupdate, players will be able to catch Galarian Slowpoke. However, Galarian Slowpoke doesn’t just appear in the wild. On the contrary,Pokemon SwordandShieldplayers have to visit a very specific place in theGalar regionif they hope to catch one before the Isle of Armor expansion’s release date in June.

Here’s wherePokemon SwordandShieldplayers need to go to catch a Galarian Slowpoke in the games.
Where to Catch Galarian Slowpoke
No matter what versionPokemonfans are playing,Galarian Slowpokewill be found in the same location. Players need to visit Wedgehurst Station to find Galarian Slowpoke, but there is one more step before it will actually appear.
If players are playingPokemon Sword, then they will have to talk to Klara, their new rival in theupcoming Isle of Armor expansion. However, ifPokemonfans are playingPokemon Shieldinstead, they will have to talk to Avery. Like Klara, Avery is the new rival character in the Isle of Armor expansion. After a short scene, players will then have the opportunity to catch Galarian Slowpoke, which should be easy. It doesn’t seem likely that players will miss their chance to catch Galarian Slowpoke inPokemon SwordandShieldunless they do so on purpose, but those who want to err on the side of caution may want to save right beforehand. In the unlikely event that one does miss out on catching Galarian Slowpoke, they will have more opportunities to do so once the Isle of Armor expansion launches in June.
How to Evolve Galarian Slowpoke
AfterPokemon SwordandShieldplayers catch Galarian Slowpoke, they will no doubt want to know how to evolve it into Galarian Slowbro or Galarian Slowking. Unfortunately, it’s currently impossible to evolve Galarian Slowpoke inPokemon SwordandShield. An item will be released in the Isle of Armor expansion that will make it possible to get Galarian Slowbro, though Galarian Slowking won’t be obtainable untilThe Crown Tundra expansionlaunches in fall 2020.
