Shell Bell |
The best ability for Tinkaton in Tera Raid Battles is Mold Breaker which enables it to use moves without getting affected by its opponent's abilities.
We also recommend getting a Tinkaton with Steel Tera Type to boost the power of its Steel-type STAB and keep its immunity to Poison-type moves. As a physical attacker, an Adamant nature would be best.
Tera Raid EV spreads should lean towards a bulky offense to help with survivability and with dealing as much damage as possible. Max out your HP and Attack EVs, while adding the remaining EVs into Special Defense. Shell Bell gives Tinkaton some passive healing while it attacks using its moves.
Tinkaton Tera Raid Turn-by-Turn Counter Strategy | |
---|---|
Turn 1~2 |
Use Swords Dance to raise Tinkaton's Attack by two stages. Setup twice to give it +4 Attack. |
Optional | Use Light Screen to reduce the damage Tinkaton receives from Special Attacks by 50%. |
Turns 3~5 | Alternate between Gigaton Hammer and Bulldoze to deal damage and lower the opponent's Speed by one stage. |
Turns 6+ | Once you get enough Tera charge, terastallize into a Steel-type to deal boosted damage with Gigaton Hammer. |

Sitrus Berry |
The best ability for Tinkaton in Tera Raid Battles is Mold Breaker which enables it to use moves without getting affected by its opponent's abilities.
We also recommend getting a Tinkaton with a Fairy Tera Type because of its immunity to Dragon and the boost it gives to its Fairy-type STAB. As a physical attacker, an Adamant nature would be best.
Tera Raid EV spreads should lean towards a bulky physical attacker so it can survive longer in raids while dishing out damage. Max out your HP and Attack EVs, while adding the remaining EVs into Defense.
Letting Tinkaton hold Sitrus Berry can help it set up Swords Dance to raise its Attack stat and use its moves without getting knocked down immediately. Play Rough and Gigaton Hammer are its main weapons after boosting its stat, with Helping Hand as a support move if needed.
How to Make Best Tinkaton Tera Raid Build |

You can catch a Tinkatuff with a Fairy Tera Type at Glaseado Mountain.
Make sure to bring a Pokemon that has False Swipe and can inflict a status effect to make it easier to catch.
Tinkatuff will evolve into Tinkaton at Level 38, keeping its Fairy Tera Type.
You can then proceed to level it up to 100 to maximize its stats. The easiest way to do this is by farming Exp. Candies from Tera Raid Battles.
