Tera Raid Event Codes Board

Tera Raid Event Location

Just like previous 7-Star Tera Raid events, the 7-Star Kommo-o 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.

Kommo-o Has Soundproof!

Pokemon SV - Kommo-o Tera Raid Soundproof

As seen with the Dragonite Tera Raid, these Pokemon can have their standard Abilities instead of thier Hidden ones. This Kommo-o has Soundproof which locks out useful special attackers from using the popular Metal Sound.

Reset for NPC Allies with Intimidate

Pokemon SV - Kommo-o Tera Raid Intimidate

If you want to solo this Raid, try to look for NPC Allies with the Ability Intimidate. This can be immensely helpful, as allies will almost always faint every turn, having them repeatedly send out and lowering Kommo-o's Attack.

The best allies in this situation would be Arcanine, Staraptor, and Paldean Tauros.

How to Join 7-Star Kommo-o Raid Event

Unlock 6-Star Tera Raids to Participate

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet - 7-Star Tera Raid Battle  World View

Kommo-o normally cannot be found in Paldea, making the 7-Star Event Kommo-o 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

Black Tera Raids vs. Normal Tera Raids

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 Kommo-o, keep your eyes peeled for a Black Tera Raid symbol on the map with the Fighting-type icon.
