Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s next 7-star Tera Raid features Greninja
It’s the first chance players will get to catch one
The Pokémon set to be featured in Scarlet and Violet’s upcoming 7-star Tera Raid has been revealed.
As reported by Serebii, the event will allow players to fight and catch a Greninja.
Because Greninja isn’t part of the game’s Paldea Pokédex, there hasn’t been any way for players to catch one until now.
As such, this 7-star Tera Raid Battle event will be the first chance players will get to catch a Greninja for this collection.

- ET – January 26 at 19:00 until January 29 at 18:59
- GMT – January 27 at 00:00 until January 29 at 23:59
The second session will start and end at the following times:

- GMT – February 10 at 00:00 until February 12 at 23:59

In VGC’s Pokémon Scarlet and Violet review, we said the games were the most feature-rich Pokémon titles in years but suffered from technical issues.
“The huge expansion and changes to the single player campaign are great, the size of the world and the joy of exploration are the best in the series, and the new Pokemon and battle mechanics introduced all sing,” we wrote.
“However, it’s just impossible to shake the thought of how much better the game would feel if it was on more powerful hardware, or simply ran acceptably on Switch.”
