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.

The secret to success to solo this raid is to reset for NPC Allies until you get a decent group. Try to get the Arboliva and get a few with Intimidate like Arcanine, Paldean Tauros, and Staraptor.
Best Counters for 7-Star Torterra Raid | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Other Counters for 7-Star Torterra Raid | |||||||
The best counters for the Torterra Tera Raid are Appletun and Serperior! Appletun can constantly lower Torterra's Sp Def with Apple Acid.
Alternatively, Serperior is a good option since it can combo Contrary with Leaf Storm and just quickly get up its Tera Orb energy while also maxing out its Sp. Atk.

While the raid shown is the 7-Star Chesnaught Raid, the strategy for Appletun is the same for this raid |

All Raid Power Sandwich Recipes
Torterra normally cannot be found in Paldea, making the 7-Star Event Torterra 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 Torterra, keep your eyes peeled for a Black Tera Raid symbol on the map with the Ground-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.
