#tera raid battles

A new SV Tera Raid Battle event has been announced, running from from Jul17-Aug6! The opponent will be a 7⭐ Dragon-Tera Magikarp!

My Pal Palkia (1)

So a while back, when Pokemon Home had become available to import mons from other generations to Scarlet and Violet, I decided to bring Palkia into my Violet save. Palkia is one of my favorite legendaries. I decided to bring Palkia to a Ground Tera Mimikyu raid, COMPLETELY forgetting that Mimikyu is a Fairy-Ghost type, and thus, super effective against Palkia's dragon typing. I had to deal with so many Play Roughs knocking Palkia down a peg all over the place.

This comic came to mind as to the sheer power difference between the two Pokemon. The god of space versus the little ghostie Pikachu clone. And of course… Palkia is none too happy about being absolutely bodied by him.

I take a moment to use potions on Palkia in the mid-point as we're transporting out of the raid. Palkia expresses his frustration, which… totally warranted. If I were a massive god being defeated by a little ghost in a disguise, I'd be pretty upset too xD Though more ego-bruised than anything.

Giratina floats out of the antimatter universe he inhabits and lands in front of Mimikyu. Tera sparkles kick up as he lands. Palkia and I turn to look, curious why he's here…

Giratina's voice, though distorted, comes through clear. He's super proud of Mimikyu. Any father would be when besting his uncle in a fair fight.

Mimikyu beams with pride at his father's approval. Palkia turns with daggers in his eyes, growling at his brother while Giratina cheekily smirks in Palkia's direction. I figure I'll just stay out of this. It would be hubris to think I can stop a fight between two gods, after all.

Maybe there'll be more to this! Dunno. I'm not much of a story teller, but maybe I'll come up with something. :o

Recently, I've been farming this cat on online raids for a bit, and I made some notes... and silly doodles for your enjoyment. :)

The pokemon I used was a Dragalge. If you saw a silly-looking trainer named "Bird" along with this pokemon nicknamed "Cooler" on the Poke Portal, you probably saw me. Hi :)

Here's my moveset: -Chilling Water -Acid Spray -Sludge Wave

My main goal was to weaken Meowscarada, both offensively and defensively, and blast it!

So far I've only seen my boyfriend use Gouging Fire.

Scarlet players, you have great power over this raid boss! You can consistently burn it and do some serious damage, so I highly recommend it!

Now I felt bad for these guys. They were always getting fainted. Pesky secondary typing! Ogerpon, beware Meowscarada's Acrobatics! Once they terastalized, they no longer had to worry about super-effective moves... just the timer. However, with the right team and a little luck, you can still KO Meowscarada on time! Don't give up!

Magmortar and Magmar were very rare for me to see, but highly appreciated! Turn 1: Clear Smog! No Hone Claws for you, Meowscarada. For the rest of the battle, they whittled it away with burns and Acid Sprays.

Persistence is key, this cat loves to reset its status effects!

Finally, my favorite guys to get teamed up with. They can never get fainted! Shell Armor protects them from crits, and they love to boost their defenses.

Torkoal sometimes burns Meowscarada, which is always appreciated.

Hope this is what you asked for. I'm kinda bad at writing this stuff 😅

Tag along | Drayton x Reader

Pokémon Scarlett and Violet Indigo Disk DLC Spoilers ahead!

After one to many raids where you get hurt. Drayton decided to finally ask you to let him come with you. Though things didn't go exactly as he had hopped.

Warnings: Small argument, Fluff, protective Drayton

SPOILER WARNING: No spoiler warning. Unless you don't know character names

“Drayton, I'm not so sure about this…” Your voice cut through the silence of the BB League room. Drayton had asked you completely out of the blue to let him tag along on your next raid. Which happened to be a black crystal 7star. “You’ve never even done a raid before.”

So this is Caspian, my beloved Ceruledge from Pokemon Violet. Why is he named after a Disney prince? Well, I caught him in a Tera Raid during my playthrough and his Tera Type...

...is Fairy. Which came in handy for a lot of fights since I didn't have that many answers for Dragon Types.

Once I got to doing some of the tougher Tera Raids, I trained Caspian to be my main Raid 'mon since he's incredibly offensive with an attacking move the recovers HP (Bitter Blade), so he's got a surprising amount of staying power as well. His Tera Type was also crucial for defeating the Dragon, Dark, and Fighting Tera Raids, which all came to a head when he helped me defeat and catch this Shiny Rayquaza (who I don’t have a nickname for still lol)

In a sense, he's quite literally a prince/knight saving the princess (me) from the dragon. It’s kind of his whole deal by now.

So, in the most recent Raid featuring a Shiny Wo-Chien, a Grass type, I thought it would be a perfect chance for Caspian to shine once again and contribute to the 1 million wins challenge that Gamefreak proposed in order to get these shiny legendaries. One problem though-- Caspian might be a Fire type normally, but not being able to break through the Tera shield with his Tera Fairy attacks meant I was getting my ass kicked. Consistently. Something had to change, and I realized that I really needed Caspian to be Tera Fire. But it feels so wrong for his Tera Type to be anything other than Fairy; like I'm stripping away a core part of his being. Caspian just isn't Caspian without the Fairy type.

So I kept trying, and I kept dying, and eventually frustration finally got to me enough that I reluctantly made the trip to Medali and forked over 50 Tera Shards to change Caspian's Tera Type to Fire.
