But aside from that, there's no telling what's inside a given crystal, making it a pain to track down five-star raids with Pokémon you actually want to fight.īecause Tera types vary so wildly, it's easy to spend significant amounts of time galloping around Paldea only to find one, two, and three-star crystals with low-level, less interesting monster fights, meaning players trying to farm endgame content might struggle to find fights worth picking. Tera raids are marked on the Paldean overworld with symbols indicating the Tera type of the Pokémon within, as well as modifications to indicate if the raid is a six-star raid, or a special event raid. In order to fight most five-star and higher raids effectively though, you need a team of real people playing with optimized monsters. But higher difficulty raids also have better rewards: better item drops, as well as more powerful and sought-after Pokémon to capture.
Pokémon at that level have enormous health pools, powerful moves, shields that must be broken down, and the ability to remove status conditions from themselves and stat boosts from player teams. But once you reach five stars, things get tricky. One, two, three, and four-star raids are easy enough for your average player to solo with a crew of NPCs. Tera Raids have a difficulty rating that runs from one to seven stars indicating how hard the Pokémon will be to defeat within the time limit. If players win before time is up, they receive rewards such as rare items and EXP candies, as well as an opportunity to catch the Pokémon in question.īattling with NPCs like this works pretty well, but only to a point. If you're just playing Pokémon solo, you can assemble a crew of three NPC trainers to join you for a 4-on-1 timed battle against these monsters. For instance, a Gyarados (normally a Flying/Water-type) might have a Dragon Tera type. These Pokémon are usually significantly more powerful than regular wild Pokémon, and often have a Tera type (basically this Pokémon generation's battle gimmick of choice) that's uncommon for their species. Players can find sparkling Tera crystals scattered around the world of Paldea that, when interacted with, offer the opportunity to battle a powerful Terastallized Pokémon.
