A special 7-star Tera Raid Event featuring Torterra with the Ground Tera Type has been announced and will run from November 15, 2024 (00:00 UTC) until November 17, 2024 (23:59 UTC)! Round 2 will then run on November 22, 2024 (00:00 UTC) until November 24, 2024 (23:59 UTC)!
Torterra with the Mightiest Mark, the featured Pokemon for this event, can only be caught once. However, you can still participate in this event even after you've caught Torterra if you wanted to get more of its rewards.
Just like previous 7-Star Tera Raid events, the 7-Star Torterra 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.

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.

Relies on Nasty Plot compared to other Giga Drain users but does resists Ground. Use Grassy Terrain to boost your damage or opt for Reflect for a more defensive option. Big Root is preferred due to Matcha Gotcha not having 100% accuracy which is a big drop in damage when using Metronome. |

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.
