Trainers, tera raids are one of the most prevalent features of generation 9 Pokémon games. However, unless players know what to do, they can be more difficult for casual players. However, as the old saying goes, teach a man to fish, and he’ll be fed for a lifetime. This piece will give trainers some tera raid tips to approach them in a smart way.
Keep in mind, this advice is for players to succeed in high-tier raids, such as 7-star bosses. However, they can be applied to any level of difficulty.
This should be more strictly revered when it comes to 6 or 7-star raid bosses. Knowledge is power in tera raids. So, when these bosses are announced, it’s good to study everything about the raid bosses from their movesets to their abilities and tera type.
Many Pokémon youtubers post early raid guides as well as guide sites like Game8. However, one strategy is to let the first wave of the raid pass so sites can gather all of the information to post. Raids happen in two waves, so don’t be distressed if you end up missing it on accident. It is almost always better to do the raid in the second weekend.
7 star raids are incredibly strong and if a player is out of practice, doing one uninformed decision could cost them the fight. It is important that after researching, players follow the strategies they find to a T. This might not be fun for those who just want to do whatever they want, but it will be rewarding to get that 6 IV boss mon.
It should also be important to note that there are strategies for solo and co-op raids. Be sure to pick a strategy that is apt for taking on the raid in one’s ideal method.
While soloing a raid makes one feel awesome, doing raids with friends will make the experience less frustrating. It’s easier to communicate with friends over a Discord call, which eliminates chances for strategy-breaking mistakes. Not only that, but then the whole crew will leave after bonding over beating the boss.
For the last tip, people have already chosen their Pokémon for the boss. Now, much like a ranked match, players have to prepare them to stand up to the boss. Boss Pokémon are level 100 and have all 6 stats maxed out in IVs. So, it will take the same work as preparing one member of a competitive team.
Players will have to hyper train them with Bottle Caps, train up their effort values in the necessary stats, and get them all of the necessary moves to best cripple the boss. Once that’s done, they are ready to take on the boss. This process can be made easier with friends helping out.
These are all the most tera raid tips to keep in mind when preparing to take on tera raids in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. To give an extra tip, players should remember to have fun. These tips can all be used for 4 and 5 star raid bosses. But, for lower ranked Pokémon, trainers can go in with any high-leveled Pokémon they want.
At the end of the day, these raids are about fun. So, build up resources and go all out.
