The newPokemon Scarlet and Violetevent is the first of three in the lead-up tothe Shiny Rayquaza Tera Raid, starting December 19. However, each event will feature Pokemon that are considered viable for most Tera Raid battles, with Corviknight and Bellibolt being just two examples. As a Steel and Flying dual-type Pokemon, Corviknight can set up defenses via Reflect and Light Screen, and use Taunt to stop Tera Raid bosses from bolstering their stats. As for Bellibolt, the EleFrog Pokemon’s true power lies in its Electromorphosis ability, which boosts the power of its next Electric-type attack if it takes a hit.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers looking to prepare for Shiny Rayquaza now have their first opportunity to do so. The Tinkatink Mass Outbreak and Five-Star Tera Raids against Corviknight and Bellibolt started on November 28 at 7:00 PM Eastern and the event will conclude on December 5, at 6:59 PM Eastern. Corviknight and Bellibolt are level 75 and can use various Tera types. Corviknight’s moves are Scary Face, Drill Peck, Hone Claws, Steel Wing, and Brave Bird, whereas Bellibolt will use Electric Terrain, Spark, Weather Ball, Discharge, and Sucker Punch. The rareSpicy Herba Mystica sandwich ingredientcan be obtained from these Five-Star Tera Raid bosses, andPokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers can farm them as often as they like until December 5.
