Entry information

Description

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the latest mainline titles developed by Game Freak for Nintendo Switch, continue to engage players with dynamic Tera Raid Battle events.

The upcoming event spotlights Porygon2, a rare and strategically versatile Pokémon, as the centerpiece of a limited-time raid beginning June 5 and running through June 16, 2024.

This event gives Pokémon Scarlet and Violet players the unique opportunity to encounter and catch Porygon2 with the Normal Tera Type.

As with previous featured raid Pokémon, the Porygon2 appearing in these battles will carry the exclusive Mightiest Mark, marking it as a one-of-a-kind addition to trainers' collections.

Each player can catch Porygon2 only once per save file, ensuring its status as a trophy-worthy prize. Tera Raid Battles in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet allow up to four trainers to collaborate online or locally to face off against specially selected powerful Pokémon under a time limit.

These battles introduce rare Tera Types—giving seasoned and competitive players more team-building possibilities and new reasons to return to the game.

To participate in the latest Tera Raid Battle event, players need to download the most recent Poke Portal News update.

This action happens automatically if your Nintendo Switch system is connected to the internet, without requiring a Nintendo Switch Online subscription.

Alternatively, trainers can manually update by selecting ‘Poke Portal’ from the in-game X menu, proceeding to ‘Mystery Gift’, and then choosing ‘Check Poke Portal News’. Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet maintain their popularity on Switch since their global debut on November 18, 2022, with millions of copies sold and a strong, ongoing community fostered through Nintendo Direct announcements and regular in-game events.

These Tera Raid Battles underline Game Freak’s commitment to keeping the titles fresh and engaging through ongoing content. For trainers interested in participating in the Porygon2 Tera Raid Battle or wishing to review event details, visit the official Pokémon Scarlet and Violet website.

As the event is time-limited, be sure to update your Poke Portal News and assemble your strongest team before June 16 to add this exclusive Porygon2 to your Nintendo Switch collection.
