A new feature Tera Raids in Pokemon SV is a great way to catch Pokemon and also get materials for crafting TMs and Tera types in the game. There are different star Tera raids in Pokemon SV but 6-star raids are considered the most difficult of all.
Once you unlock six-star raids you will get some very helpful rewards. So that’s where we come in, explaining how to unlock these 6-star raids in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet to take full benefit of the advantages and challenges they offer.
How to unlock 6-star raids
To unlock Six Star Raids firstly, you will have to win a post-game tournament and complete a number of five-star raids in which you will have to throw everything at these raids to come out on top.
Start off with rematching all Gym Leaders in the interest of Geeta. Then proceed to compete in the first Academy Ace Tournament. Once you’ve beaten the Tournament, you must host a couple of 5-star raids.
As you unlock the 6-star raids,
You’ll receive a call from Jacq who informs you about the opportunity to take on even more powerful Tera raids. While typical Tera raid crystals glow a shade of aquamarine, these 6-star raids are in the form of big black crystals so pretty easy to distinguish.
However, despite getting a call from Jacq, you are still far away from unlocking the 6-Star Raids as of now since you’ll need to complete at least 8-10 offline/online 4-Star or higher Raids, without knowing which Tera Crystal has a higher or lower star while completing offline raids.
Once that is done, you’ll receive another call from Jacq telling you about the Black Crystal Icon appearing on the map, thus unlocking the 6-star raids in Pokemon SV.
Where to find 6-star raids?
Unfortunately, finding 6-star raids is as hard as unlocking them. These raids can be found as Raid markers on the map indicated by black crystal icon where raids are usually found.
As can be expected from high-tier content, these 6-star raids are pretty much impossible to clear alone, unless your Pokemon are powerful and sufficiently leveled.
So ideally, it would be best if you attempted these 6-star Tera raids in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet as a multiplayer group.
Interact with tera crystals all around the map to take part in various six-star raids in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet in order to earn yourself cool new rewards and resources.
6-star raid rewards
6-star raids have a particular pattern for their rewards which you’ll receive after completing each raid.
You’ll mostly receive Feathers, Berries, or Nature Mints which increase the Pokemon’s HP/Attack/Defense/Special Attack/Special Defense/Speed EVs.
In addition to that, you are most likely to receive the Herba Mystica as well which is a rare ingredient found as a dropped item.
