The first phase of the Greninja Tera Raid Battle event has begun in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, with trainers now able to square up against the formidable beast to stand a chance of catching it. Although only one Greninja can be caught per save data, players can still obtain various useful item drops upon completing this unique Tera Raid.
The Tera Raid battles capitalize on Generation IX's unique battle gimmick called terastallization. Any Pokemon can undergo this process to get a crystal-like makeover, obtaining a typing that's different from their original one. For the ongoing event, Greninja will appear with the Poison Tera Type.
This article lists out all of the possible item drops from the Mighty Greninja event that Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players can obtain once they defeat this Tera Raid boss.
