As you can see from the table above, our Armarouge Tera Raid build focuses on SPA Psychic moves and boosting their damage. The Modest nature increases SPA damage and if you don’t already have a Modest Armarouge, you can change its nature using a Modest Mint.

Additionally, you’ll also want to make sure your Armarouge Raid build is a Psychic tera type - Armarouge is a Fire and Psychic type. Additionally, having your Armarouge hold a Twisted Spoon will boost the power of its Psychic type moves by 20%! A Twisted Spoon can be purchased at the Delibird Presents in Levincia!

Armarouge Tera Raid Moves And Strategy¶

Flash Fire is our Armarouge Raid build preferred ability and it makes it immune to Fire-type moves! This is a perfect defense against Cinderace’s Pyroball fire move! It also boosts Fire-type move damage by 50% but this tera raid build isn’t focused on doing fire damage!

Psychic Terrain and Expanding Force are a great combo of moves that’ll do tons of Psychic damage! First off, you’ll want to use Psychic Terrain to create a terrain that boosts the power of Psychic type moves by 50% for five turns. This move can be learned from TM138, which can be obtained from west of Zapapico or near Poco Path. Expanding Force is a Psychic type move which will not only get that 50% boost from Psychic terrain, but will also get an additional x1.5 power increase meaning it’ll inflict a whole load of damage to a single target - in this case, Cinderace. Armarouge learns this move at level 56.

Reflect or Calm Mind are good options for giving your Armarouge Raid build a little bit of extra defense against Cinderace’s barrage of physical attacks. Reflect can be learned via TM074, found in Medali, and Calm Mind is learned naturally at level 37.

And finally, having either Acid Spray or Clear Smog (both poison type moves) can help with managing Cinderace’s stats. Acid Spray inflicts damage and simultaneously lowers the target’s Special Defense by two stages, meaning your Armarouge will do extra damage with its SPA focused build! Acid Spray is learned via TM013, which can be obtained from South Province (Area Two).

Alternatively, you can go for Clear Smog which resets the targets stats and does damage too - this is great for making sure Cinderace doesn’t increase his damage and defense too much when he uses Bulk Up. Clear Smog is a move that Armarouge learns naturally at level 8.
