The next Pokemon Scarlet and Violet raid event is designed to help you take down Mewtwo
While the recent August 2023 Pokemon Presents stream was a disappointment for some, Scarlet & Violet fans at least had a little bit to chew on. Amid the announcement that this generation’s first expansion was just around the corner, we also got word that Mewtwo would be coming to the game in September via a Tera Raid event. That’s neat at least!
Before that actually happens, you can do some extra prep work if you’re not ready to go. The good news is that The Pokemon Company is making that easy with an event that’s live right now through the next week or so: so even lapsed players can dive in without having to make up for weeks (or months) of lost time.
From now through August 17, you’ll be able to catch three Pokemon designed to counter Mewtwo. You can find all of the event info here on the official Japanese Pokemon site.
Here are the three Pokemon you can catch:
As you may have noticed from all the fanfare, all three of these will help you take out Mewtwo in some form as part of a larger party. You’ll also get stat-raising items, as well as TMs that will help you conquer the psychic-wielding creature.
If you missed the first round of the event through August 17, you can still catch the second-chance one that runs from September 1 through September 17. Conveniently, that’s when the Mewtwo event is running as well!
