Pokémon Scarlet and Violet players have a new challenge to conquer, as The Pokémon Company launches another high-profile Tera Raid event for Nintendo Switch fans.
Beginning today, the 7-star Tera Raid Battle features the iconic Charizard sporting the rare Dragon Tera Type, offering trainers an opportunity to test their skills and earn exclusive rewards. Running until January 22, 2026, at 23:59 UTC, this limited-time event marks Charizard's return in a special form that has proven popular with players and collectors alike.
Notably, this Charizard can be caught only once per save file during the event, and it comes equipped with the 'Mightiest Mark,' making it a unique addition to any Pokédex.
After capturing Charizard, trainers can continue participating in the raid battles to secure in-game items and various rewards, keeping the event engaging even after the main prize has been claimed. The Pokémon Company emphasized the competitive nature of these 7-star raids, encouraging trainers to strategize and collaborate to overcome the formidable Dragon Tera Type Charizard.
According to a company spokesperson, the goal of these challenging raid events is to foster cooperation and skillful play among the community.
