This is a guide on how to solo and one-shot 6-Star Tera Raids in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet (SV). Read on to learn how to effectively solo 6-Star Raid Battles and the best Pokemon to one-shot Tera Raid Pokemon in the game!
Bulky Pokemon that can set up with moves like Swords Dance, and Nasty Plot are the best choice for soloing and taking down 6-Star Tera Raids in one-shot.
Pokemon like Azumarill and Iron Hands, in particular, are great choices since they can instantly max out their Attack with Belly Drum and take out the raid Pokemon with their powerful moves.
Pokemon that can lower the target's Defense and Special Defense can also one-shot Tera Raid Pokemon. Special attackers that can learn Metal Sound such as Gholdengo, and Miraidon are great choices since they also have natural bulk.

Ursaluna pretty much negated a few of these builds once it became available. Belly Drumming into Headlong Rush/Close Combat coupled w/ Guts coupled w/ Toxic Orb or Flame Orb is straight unfair to these has-been OHKO'ers & to most any Tera raid boss.
