Bad News for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Fans: Tera Raid Delayed

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players eagerly awaiting the next Tera Raid may have to wait a bit longer, as recent indications suggest a delay in the schedule. The Tera Raids have been a popular feature of the game since shortly after its release, giving players the chance to team up with friends to take down powerful Pokemon. However, a significant bug in the last Tera Raid led to the event being shut down prematurely, causing concern among fans of the game. Despite this setback, players remain hopeful that the next Tera Raid will be worth the wait.

Unfortunately, it appears that the Tera Raid bug is still causing issues for the game's development. Recent information from PokeXperto's tweet reveals that a Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Tera Raid featuring Delphox was scheduled to take place from May 26 to May 28, as seen on the Pokemon Home calendar. However, there has been no announcement made by any other channels regarding the raid. In previous instances, Tera Raids were announced at the beginning of the week they were scheduled to occur in, but this time, no such announcement has been made. This could indicate that the Tera Raid has been postponed.

The exact reason behind the potential delay is currently unknown. It is possible that it is related to the issues encountered during the last Tera Raid. The development team may need more time to address the bug that caused games to crash for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players when completing the Great Tusk/Iron Treads Tera Raid. It is also likely that the schedule has been adjusted to make up for lost time in the Raid since Great Tusk/Iron Treads was discontinued before its planned end date, and the Mighty Chesnaught Tera Raid rerun was also postponed. As a result, the schedule may be rearranged to prioritize revisiting these Tera Raids before moving on to new Pokemon.

At the moment, players eagerly await the next official announcement regarding Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's Tera Raids. The hope is that the team will soon unveil a revised schedule, starting with a repeat Tera Raid to make up for those affected by the bug, and then moving on to new content. While bugs and glitches have been present in the games since their launch, it is anticipated that this is the last major issue that will impact Tera Raids. It's worth noting that both games are currently available for Nintendo Switch.
