Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Announce Seven-Star Tera Raid Event for Late June

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet players can look forward to an exciting new challenge as Game Freak has officially announced the next Seven-Star Tera Raid Battle, scheduled to arrive in late June 2025. This high-difficulty event will offer Trainers a chance to face off against a powerful, limited-time Tera Pokémon with exclusive rewards and bragging rights on the line.

According to official details released by The Pokémon Company, the upcoming Seven-Star Tera Raid will feature a fan-favorite Pokémon with a rare Tera Type, giving players a unique opportunity to add a formidable variant to their collection. These raids are known for their extreme difficulty, requiring coordinated strategies, competitive-level builds, and teamwork to succeed.

While the exact Pokémon and Tera Type have yet to be officially confirmed, dataminers and community speculation suggest it could be a returning Legendary or a starter Pokémon from a previous generation—possibly with a Tera Type that disrupts common counters. As with previous Seven-Star events, the featured Pokémon will likely come with the Mightiest Mark, making it unavailable through other methods in-game.

The event will run for two weekends, giving players enough time to prepare, build effective raid counters, and participate with friends or online allies. Seven-Star Tera Raids are open to players who have completed the post-game content and unlocked the highest raid tier.

To prepare for the event, Trainers are encouraged to strengthen their raid teams, optimize their Pokémon with competitive stats, and stock up on useful items like Ability Patches, Tera Shards, and stat-boosting berries.

The late June Seven-Star Tera Raid is part of Game Freak’s ongoing efforts to keep Pokémon Scarlet and Violet fresh and engaging for the player base through limited-time content, surprise updates, and challenging PvE events.

Stay tuned to official Pokémon channels for more details about the featured Pokémon and its Tera Type as the event date approaches.
