How players join
Tera Raid Battles in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet appear as glowing Tera crystals in the open world; players can challenge them solo or join via local or online multiplayer.
As with prior Tera Raid events, this rotation is accessible directly through the game’s raid interface on Nintendo Switch without requiring a separate eShop download.
Context and developer notes
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, created by Game Freak and published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo, introduced the Tera Raid Battle mechanic as a central multiplayer feature.
The Mightiest Mark attached to this Cinderace identifies it as an event Pokémon distributed during limited-time activities.
Event rotations like this one are part of the ongoing live-service support for Scarlet and Violet, delivering timed encounters and items to the player base.
Players looking for strategy assistance can consult established resources and community guides for recommended team compositions and tactics against high-star Tera Raids.
