An Inteleon raid event is coming to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet soon

That means Sobble is in play too

Recommended Videos

Thanks to an announcement from the official Japanese Pokemon site, we know that the famous water sniper Inteleon is coming to Pokemon Scarlet & Violet as a 7-Star raid event. Inteleon was introduced in Pokemon Sword and Shield as a starter and became one of the most endearing and enduring ‘Mons of that generation. The sassy-looking Inteleon has a super unique design, and it even dons a sniper perch in its Gigantamax form. It was also my starter pick, and I cherish it to this day!

Here’s all the info we have on Inteleon’s return

  • The event will be held from April 28 at 9AM JST through May 1 at 8:59AM JST: with a repeat event echoing from May 5 through May 8 at the same time
  • Like prior events, it’ll have the Mightiest Mark (a title unique to these raid events)
  • It’ll sport the Ice Tera Type
  • You can only catch one per save file, but you’ll be able to fight it an unlimited amount of times for loot

Following in the footsteps of prior events, Sobble and Drizzile are coming to Scarlet & Violet as well

Using the egg-breed method in Scarlet & Violet you’ll be able to hatch a Sobble, which then evolves into Drizzile at level 16 (and Inteleon at 35). So that’s technically three new Pokemon that appear in each 7-Star Tera Raid event.

When coupled with all the loot you get (including Ability Patches), that’s not a bad reward for your time!
