Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players have already been treated to two special Tera Raid Battle events, where they squared up against powerful foes with unique Tera Types. After facing off against Eevee and Charizard, trainers will now have the opportunity to band together and battle Tyranitar and Salamence depending on the version they're playing.

Tera Raid Battles are excellent occasions for players to test their mettle against formidable Terastallized opponents alongside other players. The official announcement for the latest Tera Raid Battle events stated that they would let players take on specific pocket monsters with a particular Tera Type more frequently.

So, when are Tyranitar and Salamence appearing as Tera Raid Battle bosses in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet?
