With the Dragon-type as its Tera type, this Charizard was previously featured in a Seven-star Tera raid battle shortly afterPokemon Scarlet and Violetlaunched. But, players quickly developed strategies tofinish Charizard the Unrivaled with a single strike, leaving the Flame Pokemon with few opportunities to fight back.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Five-Star Paradox Tera Raid Battle (Brute Bonnet and Iron Hands)
Outside of Tera raids, Brute Bonnet is a Grass and Dark Pokemon, and Iron Hands boasts the Electric and Fighting types. These Paradox Pokemon have high HP and Attack stats but low Speed stats. However,Pokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers that bring a team of strongPokemon with various Tera types to pick fromshould make short work of Brute Bonnet and Iron Hands. While previous Paradox Tera raids offered rewards such as EXP Candies and Tera Shards of various types, what rewards will drop from this round of Tera raid battles remains to be seen.
Although the upcomingPokemon Scarlet and Violetraids are in the five-star category, players can use this time to stock up on rewards or catch a Paradox Pokemon to trade with a friend. Only time will tell whatthe future of Seven-star Tera raidswill look like.
