Tera Raid enthusiasts, try to do it solo!

Solo Tera Raids are offline Tera Raids that you do by yourself with the help of 3 other NPC’s.

You should do them because you get a diversity of rewards after.

Also Solo Tera Raids don’t punish you from running away from it if you aren’t doing so well.

It also depends on the level Tera Raid and the difficulty it challenges.

You’ve got to feel confident first.

The strategy of Solo Tera Raids is to 1 shot knock out the Tera Target with minimal moves.

Example strategy: Use Swords Dance 3 times. Then, follow up with Hyper Beam.

It also depends on your Pokémon’s type and you want super effective types.

Consider their IV’s. You can read another article that explains that in full detail.

Here are all the levels of Tera Raids and essential details that you should know about.

Analysis:

Mightiest Mark Skeptile is one of the most relevant Pokémon to have on your Tera Raid roster this summer. It’s Level 100 and has the Unburden Ability, boosting its Speed stat if Skeptile’s held item is used or lost.

Here are its original moves:

Leaf Blade
Breaking Swipe
Dragon Dance
Thunder Punch

Mightiest Mark Skeptile is unique since it is a Dragon Tera Type, reducing damage from elemental types especially Fire. It’s mostly weak to Ice and Fairy, while only Dragons with Ice moves can impact it. Since Grass-Types are super effective against Water-Types, it was useful against the Mightiest Mark Dondonzo event. Hold on to it for future event Tera Raids.

It should be used against 7 Star Tera Raids:

Water (A)
Ground (B)
Rock (B)
Dragon (C)
Normal (D)
Flying (E)
Psychic (F)
Dark (G)
Fighting (H)

All of which changes few of its original movesets.

A. Makes no changes against Water and Tera Raids.

B. Swap out Thunder Punch for Giga Drain against Ground and Rock Tera Raids.

C. Its original moveset is fantastic against Dragon Tera Raids. Consider Grassy Terrain for Thunder Punch to boost Leaf Blade.

D. Swap out Breaking Swipe and Dragon’s Dance for Swords Dance and Drain Punch against Normal Tera Raids.

E. Its original moveset is fantastic against Flying Tera Raids. Alternatively, you may swap out Breaking Swipe and Leaf Blade for Screech and Swords Dance.

F. Swap out Leaf Blade and Breaking Swipe for Crunch and X-Scissor against Psychic Tera Raids.

G. Swap out Thunder Punch and Leaf Blade for Drain Punch and Quick Guard against Dark Tera Raids.

H. Swap out Leaf Blade and Thunder Punch for Acrobatics and Giga Drain against Fighting Tera Raids.

Why Mightiest Mark Skeptile is Fantastic for Solo Raid:

Mightiest Mark Skeptile’s best stats are its HP (281), Special Attack (246), Attack (206), and Speed (303). Moves like Swords Dance can boost its Attack stat even more.
Mightiest Mark Skeptile has the Unburden Ability, boosting its Speed stat if Skeptile’s held item is used or lost. You want a useful item, such as a Mirror Herb, which copies an opponent's stat increases when consumed.
It resists Fire, Water, Grass, and Electric-Types.
It can learn many Grass, Fighting, Dragon, Normal, Dark, Bug, and Flying moves. Leaf Storm, Drain Punch, Dragon Pulse, Facade, Assurance, X Scissor, and Aerial Ace are few of its best powerful moves.
The common Solo Strategy with Mightiest Mark Skeptile is to keep holding the Mirror Herb in any Tera Raid. Lead with Leaf Blade as STAB moves. Defend Skeptile with the move Protect. Terastalize and finish the Tera Raid with Acrobatics or Leaf Blade.
By keeping its original moveset, the alternate Solo Strategy is to use Thunder Punch or Leaf Blade to build Tera Orb charge. Maximize the use of Dragon’s Dance, and use Breaking Swipe in between. Terastalize and finish the Tera Raid with Leaf Blade or Thunder Punch, whichever is super effective.
