Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Brings In the Next 7-Star Tera Raid Battle Event This Weekend

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are the latest installments to the GameFreak series of video games. This time the GameFreak games explore Paldea where the players start off with a twist to the original format. In this game, players first come across the legendary Pokemon of the region. Upon catching either Koraidon or Miraidon, depending on the version, players will get to embark on their journey.

While the legendary Pokemons come with a change in how you encounter them, the games also have introduced Pokemons that are event-specific. As we have seen in the previous games, event Pokemon are rare to come by. Scarlet and Violet introduce many Pokemon to the game which are not available on the regional dex. The newest Pokemon that players can battle and capture has created quite a buzz in the Pokemon Community.

Hisuian Typhlosion in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet

Pokémon Scarlet & Violet bring in powerful monsters through special 7-Star Tera Raid battles. This mechanic brings in Pokemon from other games and makes them available in Scarlet and Violet. These 7-Star Tera Raids are challenging and provide an opportunity for players to collaborate and battle strong foes.

The next 7-Star Tera Raid Battle event is announced for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet. The event is scheduled to run from 00:00 UTC on November 3rd through 23:59 UTC on November 5th and then again from November 10th through 12th. This event features a battle against Hisuian Typhlosion, which has the Fire Tera Type and the Mightiest Mark. It is to be noted that players can only catch this special Pokémon once per save file.

Players will get a chance to obtain this rare Pokemon that was first showcased in Generation II. Hisuian Typhlosion is a Fire/ Ghost Pokemon, which is different than its original variant being a mono Fire type.

How to unlock the 7-Star Tera Raids?

Upon launching the game, players do not immediately have access to 7-Star Tera Raids. Unlocking them requires specific steps. To access 7-Star Tera Raids, trainers must complete all three story paths in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, which are Victory Road, Starfall Street, and Path of Legends. Additionally, they need to finish the final quest, The Way Home.

After completing the main story, trainers progress to post-game content. They must defeat all eight Gym Leaders again and complete the Academy Ace Tournament. Following the Ace Tournament, they are tasked with hosting and winning 5-Star Tera Raids. Subsequently, they can tackle the 6-Star Tera Raids.

These events are associated with special occasions, and the key is to locate them. When a special event commences, the Black Tera Raid Crystals transform into 7-Star Tera Raids, marked by a unique white glow and a dedicated icon on the Paldea map.

By following these steps, players can unlock the 7-Star Tera Raids. After unlocking the raids, players can go ahead to challenge and capture Hisuian Typhlosion for them to keep.
