Has Access to Moves that Affect Held Items

Delphox has a move called Magic Room which disables the effects of all held items on the field. This is very troubling as a lot of Tera Raid builds rely on the held item, Shell Bell for healing.

Luckily, it doesn't use this move until relatively later in the battle, but still keep this in mind while taking it on.

Magician Has no Effect in Tera Raids

Delphox's Hidden Ability, Magician, has the effect where it will steal your Held Item when the user attacks. This ability will not work in Tera Raids just like the move Thief will always fail when used.

Magic Room Disables Items

While Delphox cannot steal your held items, it still has access to the move Magic Room. This move will remove the effects of any held item on the field like Shell Bell and Leftovers.

It will not, however, remove the form changing ability of held items. So Pokemon like Dialga will revert to its Origin Forme, but will not recieve a buff to its Dragon and Steel type moves.

Summary

With its Fire and Ghost typing combined with its ability, Flash Fire, Ceruledge can easily resist and even be immune to anything Delphox can throw at it. With this ability, you can ensure that Bitter Blade can hit for harder to heal up any damage you may get.

With the Magician ability and access to Magic Room, holding a Shell Bell isn't as reliable of a held item as it should be for Tera Raids. Ceruledge can circumvent this by having its own recovery move in Bitter Blade.

This Alolan Muk build focuses on using Minimize so that it can't hit you with Fire Blast or Will-O-Wisp. Using Acid Spray along with Sludge Bomb, Alolan Muk can easily take down Delphox with relative ease. On the chance that Alolan Muk poisons Delphox, Venoshock can be used as a more powerful option.

Summary

While it might seem counter intuitive, with Delphox having resistances to its own atracking moves and having decent special bulk makes it a great option as a support Pokemon. Having access to Mystical Fire, Light Screen, and Magic Room makes it so that the party can easily handle a lot of what the Raid Delphox can throw while letting the party use their items again .

How to Join 7-Star Delphox Raid Event

Unlock 6-Star Tera Raids to Participate

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet - 7-Star Tera Raid Battle World View

Delphox normally cannot be found in Paldea, making the 7-Star Event Delphox quite the catch, but you have to fight it in a Black Crystal Tera Raid.

These raids are tough, so trainers will have to prepare in advance. It's also recommended to complete the post-game before you participate. Players who are in earlier points of the game can still join via Link Code, but it is highly discouraged since these 7-Star raids will be extremely difficult.

How to Unlock 6-Star Raids and List of Pokemon

Black Tera Raids vs. Normal Tera Raids

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Black Crystal 7 Star.png

Remember that Black Tera Raid symbols on the map do not come in any other color except black. Meanwhile, normal Tera Raid symbols are colored according to the Tera Type of the Pokemon in them.

When you're looking for the Tera Raid with the 7-Star Delphox, keep your eyes peeled for a Black Tera Raid symbol on the map with the Fairy-type icon.

Delphox Raid FAQs

What is Fairy-type's Weakness?

Flying Types are Weak to Steel and Poison-type Moves

Super Effective
(2x)
Pokemon Fighting Type Icon Pokemon Dragon Type Icon Pokemon Dark Type Icon
Not Very Effective (x0.5)
Pokemon Fire Type Icon Pokemon Poison Type Icon Pokemon Steel Type Icon
No Effect
(x0)		 None

Delphox, during the Tera Raid, will have a Fairy Tera Type and not its regular Fire and Psychic typing. Be sure to bring Steel and Poison type attacks to gain advantage over Delphox.

Delphox being a Fairy-type is problematic because Delphox's movepool is saturated with Fire and Psychic type moves, which will heavily counter Steel and Poison types respectively. Be sure to bring Pokemon with decent Special bulk so as to not be wiped out easily by the boss.

Can You Catch Delphox Again?

Only Catchable Once Per Event

Like with previous 7-Star Raids, you can only catch one 7-Star Delphox, although you may still participate in other Delphox raids and get the rewards if you complete it.

Additionally, players who caught the Delphox in Round 1 cannot catch Decidueye again even if they participate in Round 2.

Can You Breed the 7-Star Delphox?

You Can Breed It for a Fennekin

Once you've caught the Delphox, you can easily breed it to produce Fennekin Eggs. Like other bred Pokemon, they also have a chance to be Shiny!

However, note that these Fennekin will not inherit the Mightiest Mark from the 7-Star Delphox.

Breeding Guide: How to Breed and Get Eggs

Will Delphox Have Its Hidden Ability?

Raid Delphox Will Have Its Hidden Ability

The raid Delphox that you will encounter will have Magician, this ability allows the user to steal the opponent's held item.

Will Magician Steal my Held Item?

No, The Ability Might not Work in This Tera Raid

While Delphox has the Magician ability, Delphox cannot makes use of this ability. This can be observed with the move Thief, as it will always fail when used in raids.

What Does Magic Room do in Tera Raids?

Disable the Effects of Your Held Items

Magic Room will disable any Held Item's effects as long as it is active on the field. So raid staple items like the Shell Bell and Leftovers will not be viable in forming strategies in this Raid.

Does not Affect Form Changes

The ability, however, does not affect Held Item Form changes like Dialga holding the Adamant Crystal turning it into its Origin Forme. It will, however, prevent the item from boosting Dialga's Steel and Dragon-type moves.

A similar case can be found withing the Alpha Pokemon, Arceus. Magic Room will let Arceus change its type with its respective Plate. However, the move Judgment will be reverted back into a Normal-type move.
