Pokemon Scarlet Violet Tera Raid Battle Samurott

Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet have another Tera Raid Battle event in store which will put the focus on Samurott. It’s the final evolution of Oshawott, the starter Pokemon that originally appeared in the series’ fifth generation of games.

The Pokemon Company has announced another update for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, this time specific to the Walking Wake / Iron Leaves Tera Raid Battle event.

Some players who participated ended up receiving an Egg instead of these creatures if their games were still at version 1.1 when the event began. The upcoming patch will address the issue. Additionally, Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet will both be seeing the same Tera Raid Battle run for a second time.

Pokemon Scarlet Violet save file deleted bug

After installing the new version 1.2.0 update, some Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet players have found that their entire save files have been wiped due to a new bug.

According to Kotaku, the issue “seems to have affected a small number of people, but it could theoretically hit anyone.” But what might be most troublesome is that no one is able to pinpoint what’s causing the problem.

Pokemon Scarlet Violet Tera Raid Decidueye

Original (3/5): A new 7-star Tera Raid Battle event is on the way to Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet featuring Decidueye, it’s been announced. The creature’s first appearance was in Pokemon Sun and Moon as the final evolution for Rowlet.

The Decidueye here features the Flying Tera Type and the Mightiest Mark. Like other Tera Raids, you’ll partner with other Trainers to take it down.

Pokemon Scarlet Violet DLC returning Pokemon leak

Thanks to a datamine, the near-complete list of returning Pokemon for the upcoming Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet DLC has apparently been revealed.

Version 1.2.0 dropped for both games today. Twitter user mattyoukhana_ discovered that instead of stubbing them, Game Freak deleted Pokedex entries for a ton of Pokemon. That’s what gives us the lineup of returning creatures. Some fans may recall that something similar happened with the DLC for Pokemon Sword and Shield.

Here’s the full list:

Pokemon Scarlet Violet Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti

Three more Pokemon have just been revealed for the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet DLC, with The Pokemon Company showing off Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti. These creatures “are beloved by the people of the village as heroes that protected the land of Kitakami in the past, and stone statues were made in their likeness to express the people’s gratitude.”

The DLC for Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet kicks off with The Teal Mask and The Indigo Disk. As we previously detailed, The Teal Mask sends you off on a school trip to the land of Kitakami, where a great mountain towers over the land and the people live at its base. The Pokemon Company has teased that you’ll “meet new friends and Pokémon as they unravel the mysteries behind the folktales that have been passed down in this land.​” Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti will all be appearing in The Teal Mask, but we don’t have any other specifics.

Here’s a closer look at Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti:
