Now entering Dragapult and Hydreigon!

During the Tyranitar and Salamence Raid event in December 2022, we saw that their Tera types were a 50/50 chance of being either random or a specific set tera type. We can likely assume that the Hydreigon and Dragapult event will follow a similar pattern.

Hydreigon: Scarlet Tera Raid¶

Hydreigon is a Dark and Dragon type Pokémon, though we currently don’t know what tera type it’ll take on. We can probably assume that it’ll have some pretty strong dark and/or dragon type moves up its sleeve though.

Hydreigon is a three-headed pseudo-legendary Generation Pokémon that evolves from Zweilous and is the final form of Deino. It was introduced in Generation V. Hydreigon is available in the game already but it is not found in the wild and can only be obtained through evolving Zweilous.

You may also have come across Hydreigon’s Paradox Pokémon counterpart, Iron Jugulis, which is a Violet exclusive Pokémon found in Area Zero.

Dragapult: Violet Tera Raid¶

Dagapult is a Dragon and Ghost type Pokémon, but it could take on any tera type during this event! We can probably assume that it might have a couple of strong Dragon and Ghost type moves in its arsenal though.

Dragapult is a pseudo-legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII. It evolves from Drakloak and is ther final form of Dreepy.
