Pokemon Scarlet Violet Sandy Shocks Iron Thorns Tera Raid

Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet are planning another Tera Raid Battle event with Sandy Shocks and Iron Thorns. The creature you’ll encounter depends on the version you’re playing.

In Pokemon Scarlet, Sandy Shocks will be appearing. Pokemon Violet players can take on Iron Thorns. Both will be showing up in 5 Star Raids with different Tera Types. 

If you’re interested in adding a Quaxly to your team in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet based on Dot’s appearance in the anime, that’s now possible with a new distribution.

The Quaxly being distributed here follows on from Liko’s Sprigatito, and will come with a Classic Ribbon and Partner Ribbon. It will be at Level 5 with the moves Pound and Water Gun, and a Water Tera Type.

You can take advantage of today’s distribution with the steps we’ve outlined below. 

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 7 Star Primarina Guide

The 7 Star Primarina Tera Raid Battle event for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is now live, and we’ve put together a guide explaining the best counters you can bring to take it down and claim its rewards for yourself. 

The new 7 Star Primarina event lasts until May 12, and it comes back from May 17 to 19. Primarina’s Tera Type is Fairy, and it knows Sparkling Aria, Moonblast, Psychic, and Sing. It also knows Encore and Surf as secondary moves. This Pokemon doesn’t actually boost its stats for this battle, but it does have some rather annoying status moves that we’ve prepared for. This is one of the easier 7 Star Tera Raid Battles, but you should still get ready as best you can.

Primarina Pokemon Scarlet Violet Tera Raid

The Pokemon Company and Game Freak announced that Primarina will be the next Tera Raid Battle event for Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet.

The creature will be showing up in 7 Star Raids while it’s active. Primarina has the Fairy Tera Type and comes with the Mightiest Mark. It can be caught only once per save file.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 7 Star Meganium Guide

The 7 Star Meganium Tera Raid Battle event for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is live now. It’s a little bit easier than some of the raid events we’ve seen recently, but it still poses a decent challenge on its own. The event runs until April 7, and then comes back from April 12 to April 14. If you don’t have any Pokemon ready for the first wave, you’ve got a few days to train up a counter. We’ve put together a couple of good suggestions for the event below.

Articuno location Pokemon Scarlet Violet

Today, we’re finishing up our coverage of returning Legendary Pokemon in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet with an Articuno location guide. As a reminder, you can only catch returning Legendary Pokemon after clearing The Indigo Disk’s main story. If you don’t have the DLC, you won’t be able to catch any of them.

Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres are the original trio of Legendary Pokemon introduced in the very first generation. As with most of their catchable appearances, none of these Pokemon are exclusive to either Pokemon Scarlet or Violet – you can catch all three Legendary birds regardless of the game you’re playing.
