Get ready for the Summer of Fun!
Now that Sceptile’s (#254) reign in 7-Star Tera raids is over in Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet, The Pokémon Company has started to share details on what players can expect next and, in all honesty, it’s a lot. From July 12, 2024 to September 1, 2024, The Pokémon Company has announced a Four Part Seasonal event, full of 7-Star Tera raids and Mass Outbreaks.
From the return of a Water Tera type Pikachu, to a Normal Tera type Dragonite and Water Tera type Dondozo making their debut in raids, the Mass OOutbreaks are not something you will want to miss either as the first one adds the chance to catch a shiny Alolan Raichu, which can not be caught during normal gameplay. There is also a later Mass Outbreak that adds shiny Hisuian Sliggoo as well.
For the full details on everything there is to know about the upcoming events currently, we have it all right here:

About Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet:
Welcome to the wide-open world of the Paldea region – Catch, battle, and train Pokémon in the Paldea Region, a vast land filled with lakes, towering peaks, wastelands, small towns, and sprawling cities. Explore a wide-open world at your own pace and traverse land, water, and air by riding on a form-shifting Legendary Pokémon—Koraidon in the Pokémon Scarlet game and Miraidon in the Pokémon Violet game. Choose either Sprigatito, Fuecoco, or Quaxly, to be your first partner Pokémon before setting off on your journey through Paldea.

- ★ Starfall Street ★ – In ★ Starfall Street ★, you’ll use the Auto Battle feature to take on Team Star grunts from your school in order to reach their boss.
Which will you choose?
- SPRIGATITO – The Grass Cat Pokémon – Capricious and attention seeking, it may sulk if it sees its Trainer giving attention to a Pokémon other than itself.
- FUECOCO – The Fire Croc Pokémon – Fuecoco is laid-back and does things at its own pace. It loves to eat, and it will sprint toward any food it finds with a glint in its eye.
- QUAXLY – The Duckling Pokémon – This serious-mannered Pokémon will follow in its Trainer’s wake. It’s tidy, and it especially dislikes getting its head dirty.
