How to find the Typhlosion Tera Raid in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet

destructoid.com:

It’s raiding, it’s pouring, but I’m certainly not snoring. 7-Star Typhlosion has officially arrived, testing the mettle of hardcore trainers once again. If you’ve participated in Tera Raid events to this point, then you know the drill by now. If not, as long as you fulfill the prerequisites, you’ll be in this fight with everyone else before you know it.

Let’s go over how to unlock and subsequently find Typhlosion.

Typhlosion will only appear during these two weekends.

Naturally, if you’re looking to challenge a 7-Star Raid, you should be able to cleanly defeat 6-Star raids. To unlock these, make sure you’ve completed all the core story paths and watched the credits roll after The Way Home story concludes. From here, you’ll need to finish the post-game quests that immediately unlock. After fighting a handful of raids with a 4-Star difficulty minimum, 7-Star raids will be available on the overworld and via online play while they are active.

With these prerequisites behind you, 7-Star Raids will finally appear on your map. Look for a dark flashing Ghost-Type icon to locate Typhlosion. Typhlosion will always sport a Ghost Tera Type, which should streamline both finding the encounter and preparing for it. If it does not appear, go into your main menu and press the L button to connect to the internet.

You can choose to either fight Typhlosion with a group of CPU companions or let other players enter your lobby. Joining other players is highly recommended unless you’ve discovered a solo-viable strategy for the fight. Make sure to bring a level 100 Pokemon with maxed EVs and IVs to help your allies.
