Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Officially Drops Free Download Until June 19

There is less than a week left for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet players to get in on the latest epic event for some major rewards.

Pokémon Scarlet & Violet players can currently get in on the latest 7-star Tera Raid Battle for a chance to win some serious rewards, although they’ll have to act fast if they want to get in on the action for themselves. The current Tera Raid Battle is available in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet up through June 19.

Pokémon Scarlet & Violet’s Tera Raid Battles Have Free Rewards

Tera Raid Battles are one of the most unique aspects of Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, and feature elements of the franchise that can’t be found anywhere else. Each Tera Raid Battle pits four Pokémon Trainers up against a single Terastallized, or Tera Pokémon, crystalline versions of ordinary Pokémon which frequently have a different Type than what they would have otherwise.

Although this sounds like an easy enough challenge on the surface, Tera Raid Battles are carried out under a strict timer, which is just one disadvantage players face in such encounters. The current Tera Raid Battle will see players take on a 7-star Terastallized Cinderace boasting a Fighting Type rather than its normal Fire Type.

To top things off, this Tera Cinderace also boasts the Mightiest Mark, adding another edge to the Battle that the player will have to band together to overcome. Earning these free rewards won’t be easy, but it’s definitely a great way for players to test their skills.

While Pokémon Scarlet & Violet have been subject to some particularly harsh criticisms from the wider community since their release, the ninth generation of Pokémon titles still draws a substantial player base. Much of that ongoing success is due to features such as Tera Raid Battles, which have helped define the Pokémon Scarlet & Violet experience as a whole.

Unfortunately, there is no telling if any similar feature will be present in Pokémon Winds & Waves when the next generation of Pokémon games arrives next year. Pokémon Winds & Waves will drop players into the middle of a vast archipelago dotted with dozens of islands nestled above vast underwater areas that Pokémon Trainers can explore to their hearts’ content.

Although details regarding what new Pokémon or game mechanics will be introduced in Pokémon Winds & Waves remain tightly under wraps, early glimpses at the upcoming titles have left fans hopeful for a proper return to form for the franchise.

The current Tera Raid Battle in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet is available until June 19.
