Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Strat Lets You Beat Meganium in 1 Hit
A Pokemon Scarlet and Violet player developed a team strategy to defeat the Seven-Star Tera Raid boss, Meganium the Unrivaled, in one hit. The Pokemon Scarlet and Violet player recorded footage of the Tera raid battle, and they explained the steps they took on social media for otherPokemon trainers to use against the Herb Pokemon.
