| Rewards |
7-Star Tyranitar Defeat "Tyranitar the Unrivaled" in a Black Crystal Tera Raid during the event and you'll get a Ghost Tera Type Tyranitar with the Mightiest Mark. Treasures and Battle Items Obtain various items which you can use to build battle-ready Pokemon or sell in stores for money. |
| Unlock Requirements |
Unlock 6-Star Tera Raid Battles to Participate To do this, you'll need to complete the Academy Ace Tournament, then do 8-10 4-Star or 5-Star Raids until you get a call from Jacq. |
Round 1 of the 7-Star Tera Raid Event featuring Tyranitar with a Ghost Tera Type has been announced. Round 1 of the event will run from March 28, 2025 (00:00 UTC) up until March 30, 2025 (11:59 UTC) as a set with the Powerhouse Pokemon Tera Raid Events.
Tyranitar 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 Tyranitar if you wanted to get more of its rewards.
Just like previous 7-Star Tera Raid events, the 7-Star Tyranitar 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.

As seen with the Dragonite Tera Raid, these Pokemon can have their standard Abilities instead of thier Hidden ones. Sand Stream is the more annoying of the two, so be prepared for that!

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
|||||||
| Other Counters for 7-Star Tyranitar Raid | |||||||
|
The best counters for the Tyranitar Tera Raid are Krookodile or Corviknight! Krookodile has an amazing type combination that resists Tyranitar's attacking moves along with being able to learn Power Trip!
Corviknight might be weak to Rock, but it's a type known for inaccurate moves, so if you're lucky you can get a few free set-up turns then attack with Power Trip!

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