Leftovers |
The best ability for Gallade in Tera Raid Battles is Sharpness. This gives Gallade an additional 50% damage boost to Psycho Cut, allowing you to deal even more damage against the Raid boss.
We also recommend getting a Gallade with a Psychic Tera type to give it double STAB on its Super Effective Psychic-type attack. As a Physical Attacker, an Adamant nature would be best.
Tera Raid EV spreads should lean towards bulky offense to increase survivability while still dealing the most damage possible. Max out your HP and Attack EVs, while adding the remaining EVs into Sp. Def. The Leftovers
Tera Raid Turn-by-Turn Counter Strategy | |
---|---|
Turn 1 | Use Thunder Wave to Paralyze the opponent. |
Turns 2~4 | Use Swords Dance 3 times to maximize Gallade's Attack stat. |
Turn 5 (Optional) | Use Psychic Terrain to boost Psycho Cut's damage. |
Turns 6~8 | Use stat boosted Psycho Cut to deal Super Effective damage. |
Turns 9+ | Terastallize and use double STAB, stat boosted Psycho Cut. |
Start the battle off by using Thunder Wave to try and limit the opponent's moves through Paralysis. Use Swords Dance three times to maximize Gallade's Attack, dealing the most damage possible with Psycho Cut. Psycho Cut also gains an additional damage boost from STAB and Sharpness, allowing you to chip off a good chunk of the Raid boss' HP.
Psychic Terrain allows Gallade to boost the damage of Psycho Cut.

You can catch a Ralts with a Psychic Tera type at Los Platos (East). From there, you will need to evolve it into Kirlia at level 20, then use a Dawn Stone to evolve it into Gallade.
Make sure to bring a Pokemon that has False Swipe and can inflict a status effect to make it easier to catch.
If it has a different nature, you can use an Adamant Mint to change its nature to Adamant.
The easiest way to get this is by buying it from the Chansey Supply shop at Mesagoza for ₽20,000.
How to Change a Pokemon's Nature
If its ability is different from our recommendation, you can use an Ability Capsule to change it.
This item can be bought at Chansey Supply shops for ₽100,000.
Ability Capsule Location and How to Get
If you have the money for it, you can just buy 26 Protein (for Atk), 26 HP Up (for HP) and 1 Zinc (for Sp,Def). All of these items can be bought at a Chansey Supply shop and it will cost you ₽ 530,000 in total.
Alternatively, you can use Power Items that you can buy at a Delibird Presents shop for ₽10,000 each. Have your Pokemon hold the respective Power Item while defeating the Pokemon listed below.

Lastly, give it Leftovers. This allows Gallade to heal in between turns, which is especially useful during the early game when you are setting up with your Swords Dances.
