Shell Bell |
Can set up rain with Rain Dance to weaken the Raid Boss' Fire-type attacks. While in rain, Goodra cannot be burned and Weather Ball deals double, super-effective damage. Can lower the Raid Boss's Sp. Def with Acid Spray. |
The best ability for this Goodra build is Hydration in order to fully take advantage of the rain. Hydration can heal any status condition inflicted on Goodra while it is raining, preventing any burns that the Raid Boss may inflict from sticking.
Goodra further takes advantage of the rain with Weather Ball. This move doubles its base power when there is a weather condition active. It also changes its type depending on the weather and turns into a Water-type move while in rain.
Take note that Weather Ball is a TM exclusive to the Teal Mask DLC. Those without access to this move can use Surf instead as their strong Water-type move.
We also recommend getting a Goodra with a Water Tera Type to boost the damage output of a Water-type Weather Ball in the rain. As a Special Attacker, a Modest nature would be best.
Best Tera Types: Best Pokemon to Terastallize
Tera Raid EV spreads for this 7-star the Raid Boss counter should lean towards Special bulk and offense. Max out your Sp. Atk and Sp. Def EVs, while adding the remaining EVs into HP. Give it a Shell Bell, so that Goodra can heal up whenever it does damage.
Goodra Tera Raid Turn-by-Turn Counter Strategy | |
---|---|
Turn 1 | Use Rain Dance to set up the rain. |
Turns 2~5 | Use Acid Spray to lower the Raid Boss's Sp. Def. Note if the Raid Boss resets its stat drops, so you will need to use Acid Spray one more time. |
Turns 6+ | Terastallize and use Weather Ball. Set up the rain again once it disappears. |
Low HP Turns | Use Life Dew or do a Heal Cheer to regain HP. |
If you don't have a teammate with the Drizzle ability, set up your own rain using Rain Dance.
Reduce the Raid Boss's Special Defense using Acid Spray until it's at -6. It will reset its stats after one Acid Spray, so make sure to use it an extra time and check that it is at -6 Sp. Def before Terastallizing.
Once you are able to, Terastallize into the Water Type. Use Weather Ball until the Raid Boss is defeated, but make sure to only use it when it's raining. Set up the rain again using Rain Dance once the rain fades.
Use Life Dew if either you or your allies are low on HP. Alternatively, you can use a Heal Cheer if you want more immediate healing.

This Goodra Tera Raid Build is an effective counter to Fire, Ground and Rock Type Tera Raid Bosses. If the Tera Raid Boss is usually an Ice or Fairy Type outside of Terastallization, perhaps consider a different build, as Goodra will be weak to these Types as a Water-Type attacker.

How to Make Best Goodra Tera Raid Build |
---|
|
To get Goodra, you need to catch a Sliggoo from Casseroya Lake and evolve it.
Make sure to bring a Pokemon that has False Swipe and can inflict a status effect to make it easier to catch.
Sliggoo can evolve into Goodra upon reaching level 50, but only if it's raining or foggy in the overworld. Unfortunately, you can't control the overworld weather. Make sure you have Sliggoo on hand as you explore so you can be ready to evolve it once you do encounter rain or fog.
If the Goodra build you are following requires it to have a different Tera type, you will need to have 50 Tera Shards of the type you need, and bring it to Medali to have your Pokemon's Tera Type changed.
If it has a different nature, you can use a Modest Mint to change its nature to Modest.
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 the build you are following requires it to have its Hidden Ability, you can use an Ability Patch to give Goodra its Hidden Ability.
Ability Patch Location and How to Get
EV train Goodra according to the build's EV spread using Vitamins, Mochis, or the traditional way with Power Items and battling Pokemon with the right EV yield.
Vitamins can be bought at any Chansey Supply shop and it will cost you ₽530,000 to fully train a Pokemon. Meanwhile, Mochi can be obtained through the Ogre Oustin' Minigame.
If you have the money for it, you can just use 26 Calcium (for Sp. Atk), 26 Zinc (for Sp. Def), and 1 HP Up (for HP). You can also use the same amount of the respective Mochi.
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.
Held Item | Number of Pokemon to Defeat | Defeat Any of These Pokemon |
---|---|---|

After EV training it, head to Montenevera and talk to the man with an Abomasnow near the Pokemon Center. He will hyper train your Pokemon using Bottle Caps.
A Bottle Cap can be bought at the Delibird Presents shops for ₽20,000 after getting 6 Gym Badges. 1 Bottle Cap is needed for each stat that will be maxed out.

Next, level it up to 100 to maximize its stats. The easiest way to do this is by farming Exp candies from Tera Raid Battles.
