Earlier today, another iteration of the Black Crystal Tera Raid Battle event arrived in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet for fans to participate in. After Charizard and Cinderace, Greninja is the newest Seven-Star Tera Raid boss. The occasion also marks the debut of the beloved Generation VI Ninja Pokemon in Paldea, as it can't be found in the wild or through any other means.
The developers at Game Freak regularly add new Tera Raid Battle events of varying star levels to sustain the hype and excitement of trainers around the mechanics of Terastallization in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. With the Black Crystal event, they have been introducing new Pokemon to the game from previous generations.
