Delphox Returns in Tera Raid Battles This Weekend!

 

In Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet, there is an exciting event featuring Delphox with the Mighty Mark in Tera Raid Battles! You have the opportunity to challenge this powerful Pokémon and try to stop its devastating Mystical Fire. The event will take place from Thursday, July 13, 2023, at 5:00 p.m. to Sunday, July 16, 2023, at 4:59 p.m. PDT.

Delphox is not normally found in Paldea, making this event a unique opportunity. During the event, Delphox will have Fairy as its Tera Type, making it a formidable opponent. The Mightiest Mark it possesses serves as evidence of its strength.

When participating in a 7-star Tera Raid Battle, it's crucial to consider the original type of the Pokémon as well as its Tera Type. While Poison- and Steel-type moves are typically disadvantageous against Fairy-type Pokémon, keep in mind that Fairy-Tera Type Delphox can utilize Fire- or Psychic-type moves, which will not only be super effective against Poison- or Steel-types but also benefit from a same-type attack bonus.

To have a chance to encounter Delphox in Tera Raid Battles, ensure that you have downloaded the latest Poké Portal News. You can do this by accessing the X menu, selecting Mystery Gift, and then choosing Get Poké Portal News. When you spot a sparkling pillar of light emanating from a Tera Raid crystal, approach it and interact with it to initiate a Tera Raid Battle against a Tera Pokémon.

Trainers who have completed the postgame events following the main story or those who join a 7-star Tera Raid Battle hosted by a qualified Trainer can challenge Delphox. It's worth noting that this special Delphox can only be caught once per save data. If you have already captured it, you can still participate in Tera Raid Battles against Delphox to earn other rewards, such as Exp. Candy for leveling up your Pokémon, valuable treasures for selling at Pokémon Centers, items to enhance your Pokémon's stats, and Fairy Tera Shards for altering your Pokémon's Tera Type.

Prepare yourself for a tough battle, as Delphox is a formidable opponent.
