The Pokémon Company has unveiled an exciting new challenge for fans of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet on Nintendo Switch: a limited-time 7-Star Tera Raid event spotlighting the Dragon- and Fighting-type Pokémon, Kommo-o.
Launched on July 11, 2025, and running until July 13, this event offers skilled trainers an opportunity to catch a unique Kommo-o boasting the rare Fighting Tera Type—a first for the game’s sought-after Tera Raid Battles.
Since its release, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet has captivated audiences on the Nintendo Switch, regularly introducing content updates and special events to maintain a vibrant community of players.
Tera Raids, in particular, have consistently been a highlight, allowing players to take on powerful Pokémon with boosted stats, special marks, and exclusive abilities.
This latest event is part of The Pokémon Company’s ongoing commitment to delivering engaging post-launch content through both the base game and Nintendo Switch Online features.
Players eager to participate can access this Kommo-o Tera Raid through the game’s Raid Battle menu, provided they have downloaded the latest Poké Portal News.
The event runs from July 11 through July 13, 2025, giving trainers a limited window to capture the Pokémon, which comes adorned with the Mightiest Mark—a signifier of its exceptional power.
Each player is restricted to catching Kommo-o only once per save file during this event, though participation in subsequent raids allows for the collection of valuable in-game rewards like Herba Mystica, ability capsules, and Tera Shards.
Nintendo of America highlighted the event’s arrival on social media, reinforcing its importance in the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet event cycle and the Nintendo Switch platform’s calendar of online content.
With a growing catalogue of special Tera Raids, The Pokémon Company supports a robust and continuously evolving competitive scene, making events such as this a staple feature for dedicated trainers and newcomers alike.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet launched on the Nintendo Switch in November 2022, and quickly became one of the best-selling titles on the system, thanks to their open-world design, innovative Tera Raid mechanics, and frequent online events.
The Pokémon Company has continued to support the titles via regular updates and new challenges, solidifying its presence on the eShop and through Nintendo’s direct marketing efforts.
Be sure to log in before July 13, 2025, to take part in this special Kommo-o 7-Star Tera Raid Battle, only available for a limited time on Pokémon Scarlet and Violet for Nintendo Switch.
