Garchomp will be appearing at black Tera Raid crystals from Friday, May 23, 2025, at 00:00 UTC to Sunday, May 25, 2025, at 23:59 UTC, then again from Friday, May 30, 2025, at 00:00 UTC to Sunday, June 1, 2025, at 23:59 UTC.

The Garchomp appearing during this event has Ground as its Tera Type. Be prepared—this Pokémon is a formidable foe, and it’s got the Mightiest Mark to prove it! Work together with your friends to topple this powerful Tera Pokémon!

During the latter half of this event—from Friday, May 30, 2025, at 00:00 UTC to Sunday, June 1, 2025, at 23:59 UTC—Blissey will be appearing more frequently in 5-star Tera Raid Battles. These Blissey will have various Tera Types, so prepare wisely before challenging them! Defeating Blissey will yield some delightful rewards, such as various Tera Shards and bonus Exp. Candies.

~This special Garchomp can be caught only once per save data. If you caught this Garchomp previously during a Tera Raid Battle event, you cannot catch it again. You can still participate in Tera Raid Battles against this Garchomp to obtain other rewards if you’ve already caught it.~

    In case anyone’s curious, I tried soloing with Glaceon (full EV SpATK , 2-way split BT HP & DEF, Snowscape, Calm Mind, Ice Beam, sand attack, and holding Shell Bell)

    • Turn 0 - Breaking swipe (lower attack of all pokemon)

    • Tera Shield Activated at 80-90% health remaining

    • **Ability: ** Rough Skin

    • Moveset: Earthquake Fire Fang Don’t know move 3 Don’t know move 4

    I almost succeeded in soloing but got one shotted by fire fang towards the end. I found that odd, BC usually the game prioritizes super effective moves earlier in battle. My Glaceon got hit by 90% of the raid by Earthquake.

      This is the builds I am seeing recommended:

      Quagsire @ Shell Bell
      Ability: Unaware
      Tera Type: Stellar
      EVs: 4 HP / 252 Def / 252 SpA or 252 Atk
      Modest or Adamant Nature

      • Acid Spray
      • Recover / Curse / Stockpile
      • Surf / Liquidation
      • Chilling Water / Mud-Slap

      Serperior @ Shell Bell
      Ability: Contrary
      Tera Type: Grass
      Modest Nature

      • Breaking Swipe
      • Leaf Storm
      • Energy Ball / Giga Drain
      • Grassy Terrain

      Although, if it has fire fang, that serperior is not going to last long.

      Another addition:

      Slowbro @ Shell Bell

      Tera Type: Water
      EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
