Round 2 of the Tera Raid Event featuring Infernape with the Rock Tera Type has ended. The second round ran from October 11 until October 13, 2024, along with the rerun of the Blissey Tera Shard Raid Event!
Infernape with the Mightiest Mark, the featured Pokemon for this event, could only be caught once. However, you could still participate in this event even after you've caught Infernape if you wanted to get more of its rewards.
Just like previous 7-Star Tera Raid events, the 7-Star Infernape Raid Dens would only spawn in Paldea. If you haven't purchased The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC, no need to worry as the Raid Den cannot appear in Kitakami or the Terarium. You also don't need to do the Mochi Mayhem Epilogue in order to start this raid.

IVs: 31 IVs in Every Stat Nature: Naughty ・ Flare Blitz ・ Aura Sphere ・ Tera Blast ・ Grass Knot Can also use: ・ Nasty Plot ・ Swords Dance ・ Focus Energy |
The secret to success to solo this raid is to reset for NPC Allies until you get a decent group. Stick with Intimidate users like Arcanine, Paldean Tauros, and Staraptor.
Near the end of the Raid, Infernape will use both Swords Dance and Focus Energy. Make sure to quickly take it out before it can land a nasty Flare Blitz at you costing you the raid at the end.

Infernape normally cannot be found in Paldea, making the 7-Star Event Infernape 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
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 Infernape, keep your eyes peeled for a Black Tera Raid symbol on the map with the Rock-type icon.
Black Crystal Tera Raid Battles
You are able to join Event Raid Dens online. When the event is live, you can use our Tera Raid Board to coordinate a team to take it down!
To participate in the event with other players, you must have a paid Nintendo Switch Online membership, which is bought separately from the game.
Multiplayer Modes: All New Co-Op Adventure and Connectivity Options
Trainers must also make sure they have the latest version of Poke Portal News in their game. This should automatically download if your Switch is connected to the Internet.
