Introduction
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company for Nintendo Switch (released November 18, 2022), continue to host rotating Tera Raid events that reward players with rare items and Pokémon.
Over the course of the weekend, players can tackle a 7-Star Tera Raid featuring an Ice Tera-type Inteleon.
This raid is notable both for being a current in-game source of Inteleon and for the high-level rewards it drops, including Vitamins, Rare Candies, and Ability Patches.
Raid unlock requirements and mechanics
To participate in 7-Star Tera Raids players must meet postgame progression requirements: complete the main story and end credits, finish all Gym Rematches and the Academy Ace Tournament, and complete ten or more raids rated 4-star and above.
Once those conditions are met, 7-Star Raid dens will appear on the overworld and on the Tera Raid board.
Inteleon specifics
The raid Inteleon appears as an Ice Tera-type.
That Tera typing increases the power of Ice moves and shifts Inteleon’s weaknesses — it is vulnerable to Fire, Fighting, and Rock attacks.
This Inteleon has the Ability Sniper, which raises its critical hit multiplier, and uses high-damage special attacks including Blizzard, Snipe Shot, Dark Pulse, as well as supportive and weather-setting moves like Mist, Tearful Look, and Snowscape.
Snowscape sets snowy weather that raises defenses of Ice-type allies and makes Blizzard always hit; Mist prevents stat drops.
In battle, Inteleon commonly opens with Mist and Snowscape, and may reapply them after their five-turn duration expires.
Community note (paraphrased)
Players in the community emphasize that the 7-Star raid is currently the only reliable in-game source for this Inteleon, and that the raid’s rewards make consistent clears especially valuable.
General strategy and team recommendations
Avoid bringing Pokémon with Ice or Water weaknesses to prevent needless fainting and timer loss.
Level-100 Pokémon and maxed stats (Vitamins) are recommended.
Use Cheers to buff teammates or Heal Up when needed.
Moves that lower Inteleon’s Defense or Special Defense speed the kill, while moves that lower its Attack or Special Attack reduce knockout risk.
Recommended Pokémon and roles
- Annihilape: Ghost/Fighting neutralizes Inteleon’s STABs; Defiant helps recover from Tearful Look.
Recommended moves include Rage Fist, Drain Punch, Bulk Up, and Sunny Day to cancel Snowscape.
Use Shell Bell for sustain.
- Iron Hands: Electric/Fighting resists Inteleon’s attacks.
Drain Punch for sustain, Swords Dance or Belly Drum for setup; Quark Drive users pair well with Booster Energy.
Covert Cloak mitigates Blizzard secondary effects.
- Perrserker: Steel typing resists many moves; Steely Spirit boosts team Steel moves.
Use Taunt to stop Mist and Snowscape, Sunny Day to remove Snow, and Iron Head to pressure Inteleon.
Effective in team Perrserker compositions.
- Samurott: Shell Armor prevents criticals, negating Sniper.
Taunt and Swords Dance or Focus Energy strategies work; Smart Strike is a reliable STAB option.
Tera usage and weather control
Bringing a Fighting Tera or Terastallizing an attacker to Fighting helps break Inteleon’s Tera Shield quickly.
Teams that can set non-snowy weather — Sunny Day, Rain, or Sandstorm — will cancel Snowscape, removing Blizzard’s guaranteed-hit advantage.
Conclusion
This 7-Star Ice Tera Inteleon raid rewards high-tier items and a chance to obtain Inteleon itself, so clearing it reliably is valuable for competitive and collection-minded players on Nintendo Switch.
Use resistance-aware team composition, weather control, and stat-reduction moves to improve success rates.
