Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Seven-Star Tera Raid Details (Sceptile the Rivaled)

Sceptile the Unrivaled’s Tera type is a callback toits Mega Evolution form, which first appeared inPokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. Sceptile’s Dragon-type moves, including Dragon Tail and Breaking Swipe, will be amplified. However, the Forest Pokemon has a few flaws for trainers to exploit. Its Hidden Ability, called Unburden, will not be a factor, as Tera Raid boss Pokemon usually do not hold items. While Dragon Pokemon are formidable, Fairy-type Pokemon will render some of Sceptile’s moves useless. With low physical defenses, Fairy attacks like Play Rough will also hit the Forest Pokemon hard.

Fairy Pokemon like Sylveon, Alolan Ninetails, and Galarian Weezing will be quite effective for dealing with Sceptile the Unrivaled. What strategiesPokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers will form to beat Sceptile the Unrivaled remains to be seen.
