Samurott is the final evolution of the Water starter, Oshawatt. Introduced in Generation V, Samurott has made an appearance in Pokémon Legends: Arceus and has a Hisuian form. Though we now have Hisuian Zorua in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, Hisuian Samurott won’t make an appearance for this raid.
Starting on Friday, March 31 at 12am UTC, Samurott will be available to battle until Sunday, April 2 at 11:59pm UTC.
Since Samurott’s base type is Water, it should have at least one Water-type move from its typical move set.
Samurott can learn Water Gun, Razor Shell, Water Pulse, Aqua Jet, Aqua Tail, and Hydro Pump by leveling up. Samurott has pretty even Attack and Sp.

As a Bug Tera, Samurott will have at least one Bug-type move. It can learn Megahorn and Fury Cutter by leveling up, and X-Scissor by TM. All three moves are Physical moves, though Fury Cutter has a much lower Power value. You can expect either Megahorn or X-Scissor.
