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 Walking Wake and Iron Leaves Soon!
Walking Wake and Iron Leaves Return to Tera Raid Battles!
From Monday, December 25, 2023, at 00:00 UTC to Sunday, January 7, 2024, at 23:59 UTC, Walking Wake will be appearing in 5-star Tera Raid Battles in the Pokémon Scarlet game, and Iron Leaves will be appearing in 5-star Tera Raid Battles in the Pokémon Violet game.
These Paradox Pokémon cannot normally be encountered in Paldea. The Walking Wake appearing during this event has Water as its Tera Type, and the Iron Leaves appearing during this event has Psychic as its Tera Type. Try joining Tera Raid Battles hosted by Trainers playing the other version of the game to help complete your Paradox Pokémon collection!
The special Walking Wake and Iron Leaves featured in this event can each be caught only once per save data. If you caught these Pokémon during a previous Tera Raid Battle event, you cannot catch them again. You can still participate in Tera Raid Battles against these Pokémon to obtain other rewards if you’ve already caught them.
The Walking Wake and Iron Leaves appearing during this event may be featured in future events or become obtainable through other methods.
