Pokémon fans get ready for an exciting challenge in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet! The latest Seven-Star Tera Raid battle features Quaquaval the Unrivaled, now available for players to encounter. Trainers have until March 20 to take on this powerful level 100 Paldean starter, equipped with a formidable ability that can tip the scales in battle.
Quaquaval, known as the Dancer Pokémon, is the ultimate evolution of Quaxly and Quaxwell. This Water and Fighting-type Pokémon evolves at level 36 and boasts high physical attack and speed stats. Unlike defensive water-types such as Blastoise and Swampert, Quaquaval rivals the move versatility of Pokémon like Greninja and Samurott. In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, it’s a strong contender against Steel, Fire, and Rock-types but be wary of its vulnerability to Electric-type moves.
With the conclusion of the Skeledirge Tera Raid battle, trainers have one more Paldean starter to face. Nintendo has announced via social media that Quaquaval the Unrivaled will appear in Seven-Star Tera Raid dens until Thursday, March 20, at 7:59 PM Eastern. This Dancer Pokémon has a Water Tera type and defeating it can earn trainers the coveted Mightiest Mark. Watch out for its hidden ability, Moxie, which boosts its already impressive physical attack whenever it knocks out an opponent.
From March 13 to 20, players will have the opportunity to battle Quaquaval in Seven-Star Raid Dens. Following in the footsteps of Meowscarada and Skeledirge, Quaquaval presents a unique challenge for trainers aiming to capture the last of the Paldean starter Tera Raid Bosses. Be aware of its hidden ability, as it can become problematic if not handled swiftly.
Quaquaval’s moves are true to its dancing theme. According to Serebii.net, it starts battles by using Bulk Up to enhance its physical attack and defense. It attacks with powerful moves like Aqua Step, Brick Break, Brave Bird, and Ice Spinner, showcasing its adaptability against various types. The Pokémon also sets up barriers after several turns and uses Rain Dance to enhance Aqua Step, with a second Bulk Up later in the raid.
Countering Quaquaval’s hidden ability with moves such as Skill Swap and Gastro Acid is vital, as repeated knockouts could turn the tide against players. Since Brick Break nullifies Reflect and Light Screen, trainers can rely on moves like Iron Defense or Chilling Water to reduce incoming damage. With Quaquaval lacking Ground-type attacks, Electric-types like Miraidon, Bellibolt, and Zekrom are excellent choices for taking down this Tera Raid boss. As trainers strategize and adjust their tactics, it remains to be seen which methods will prevail against Quaquaval the Unrivaled.
