Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet are now available for Nintendo Switch. Read on below to learn more about one of the latest in-game events:

Challenge Blissey in Tera Raid Battles

Blissey is appearing at Tera Raid crystals October 19–22 and will award victors with Exp. Candy and Tera Shards.

Don’t miss your chance to battle Blissey! From October 19, 2023, at 5:00 p.m. PDT to October 22, 2023, at 4:59 p.m. PDT, Blissey will be appearing more frequently in Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet 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 bonus Exp. Candies and Tera Shards of different Tera Types.

Lucky Trainers might even encounter a Blissey that grants loads of additional Tera Shards with different Tera Types—which you can use to change your Pokémon’s Tera Type at the Treasure Eatery in Medali for 50 Tera Shards of a single Tera Type. And if you’ve obtained the Glimmering Charm from Jacq—which can be accomplished by completing the Kitakami Pokédex in The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 1: The Teal Mask—you’ll be rewarded with even MORE Tera Shards!

For the opportunity to encounter these Pokémon in Tera Raid Battles, you’ll need to have downloaded the latest Poké Portal News. You can do this by connecting your Nintendo Switch system to the internet or by selecting Poké Portal in the X menu, then Mystery Gift, then Get Poké Portal News. After that, whenever you see a sparkling pillar of light shining from a Tera Raid crystal, you can walk up to the crystal and interact with it to start a Tera Raid Battle with a Tera Pokémon.
