Koraidon is one of the best physical attackers to use in Tera Raid Battles, especially against those with Normal Tera Types.

Its main and signature move Collision Course is a Fighting-type move which hits 30% stronger if the target is weak against Fighting-types and can be powered-up even further when it is Terastallized with a Fighting Tera Type.

Look Out for Boosted Normal-type Moves

Normal-type moves are the most accessible attacks for all Pokemon. Having a Normal Tera Type will boost the power of these attacks, so even though they may seem harmless, they could pack quite a punch.

Reduce the raid boss' offensive stats or boost your own defensive stats to reduce the damage you take from these attacks.
