The Pokémon Company has activated a time-limited 7-star Tera Raid event in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet that features a Water-Tera Goodra.
The event runs on Nintendo Switch from the announcement date through November 12, 2026 at 23:59 UTC.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, developed by Game Freak and published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch family of systems, first launched on November 18, 2022 and continue to receive live events and raid rotations via online updates and the in-game Union Circle system.
Event details
Serebii, a long-running Pokémon news site, reported the Tera Raid event and confirmed the availability window.
In journalistic terms: Serebii has stated that a Goodra will appear in 7-star Tera Raid Battles through November 12 at 23:59 UTC.
According to the event briefing, the Goodra in this raid is Water-Tera typed, carries the Mightiest Mark, and may be captured only once per save file.
After capturing the marked Goodra, players may continue to challenge the 7-star raid for various in-game rewards.
What this means for players
This raid offers trainers a one-time opportunity to add a marked Goodra to their collection.
The Mightiest Mark denotes a special, unique status the developer has used in past live-event distributions; in this case, the Goodra is explicitly described as catchable only once.
Players can continue to queue for or replay the raid encounter for rewards after the unique capture has been claimed.
How to participate
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet players can access Tera Raid Battles through the in-game Terastal and Raid Battle systems, available on the Nintendo Switch.
The games and related updates are distributed through physical retail and Nintendo eShop.
Trainers who want to join the raid should ensure their game is updated to the latest version and check online raid lobbies before the event ends on November 12, 2026 at 23:59 UTC.
