Hisuian Decidueye will be appearing at black Tera Raid crystals from Friday, October 6, 2023, at 00:00 UTC to Sunday, October 8, 2023, at 23:59 UTC, then again from Friday, October 13, 2023, at 00:00 UTC to Sunday, October 15, 2023, at 23:59 UTC.

Hisuian Decidueye cannot normally be encountered in Paldea, and the Hisuian Decidueye appearing during this event has Grass 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!

This special Hisuian Decidueye can be caught only once per save data. You can still participate in Tera Raid Battles against this Hisuian Decidueye to obtain other rewards if you’ve already caught it.
