Where Do I Find it!

Early on in Pokemon Sword and Shield, you will eventually have to leave the starting towns and progress towards the next town to battle with the first gym leader in the Galar region.

At the next train station which is located in the Wild Zone area, there are two NPCs a girl and a boy next to the door. Talking to the boy will grant you Eevee if you have played Pokemon Let's Go Eevee at all. Talking to the girl with the blonde hair will grant you Pikachu if you have played Let's Go Pikachu. 

There Pokemon are essentially the same Pokemon you play within the Let's Go versions and thus cannot evolve into one of the many Eevee evolutions or Raichu.
