Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Announce Massive Rotating 7-Star Powerhouse Raid Event for Fall 2026
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are hosting a weekly rotating 7-Star Tera Raid event from September to December 2026, featuring ten exclusive Powerhouse Pokemon with the rare Mightiest Mark.
Game Rant reports that Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are rolling out an ambitious string of 7-Star Tera Raid events starting in September 2026. Running through early December, the update introduces ten iconic Powerhouse Pokemon rotating on a weekly schedule. Dragonite kicks things off on September 25 with a Normal Tera type, followed by fan favorites like Tyranitar, Salamence, Metagross, and Garchomp. These free events require players to have completed the main game and unlocked high-tier raids.
Every featured creature caught during the event comes stamped with the highly coveted Mightiest Mark, making them prime collectibles for competitive players and completionists alike. Since these specific encounters are limited to one catch per account and are unlikely to return, the stakes are high for the community. However, players can continuously farm the standard raid rewards throughout each active week, giving everyone a reason to jump back into matchmaking with friends or online squads.
The lineup rounds out through November with heavy hitters like Hydreigon, Goodra, Kommo-o, Dragapult, and Baxcalibur, though notable omissions like Hisuian Goodra sit this one out. As part of the broader franchise milestone celebrations, this rollout gives players a compelling reason to dust off their optimal raid builds. It is a solid community-focused event that keeps the endgame active while we wait for the next mainline evolution of the series.
