Pokemon Scarlet & Violet introduced players to the Tera Raid mechanism, allowing Pokemon to take on different Tera Types during these battles. During the Summer of 2023, the game introduced Gimmighoul in Tera Raids, and some players could get a shiny one.

Thankfully, if players missed that event, they will have another chance to obtain this Pokemon during the game's Summer Events Celebration. Here's a breakdown of the best way to counter Gimmighoul in order to obtain the Pokemon during the event.

This event lasts from August 9, 2024 at 15:00 UTC until August 22, 2024 at 23:59 UTC.

Pokemon Scarlet And Violet: 20 Rarest Pokemon

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is chock-full of Pokemon for players to find. Here are the rarest ones in the game.

How To Unlock Different Difficulty Tera Raids In Scarlet & Violet

While playing the game, players will be able to take on Gimmighoul in different difficulties of Tera Raid Battles, from 1-Star to 5-Star Battles. Here's how to unlock each difficulty of Tera Raid Battles in the game.

1-Star - Automatically unlocked
2-Star - Automatically unlocked
3-Star - Unlocked after obtaining 3 Gym Badges
4-Star - Unlocked after obtaining 7 Gym Badges
5-Star - Unlocked upon completing the main questline

While Gimmighoul can be in any Tera Raid Battle difficulty, 5-Star Battles will give players the best rewards.

How To Complete The Gimmighoul Tera Raid In Scarlet & Violet

The truth is, there is no tried-and-true way to ensure that players beat Gimmighoul in Tera Raid Battles. Considering the difficulties of these battles and the Tera Types of Gimmighoul can be random, it is hard to decide the best Pokemon to use unless players know the difficulty and Tera Type they are up against. The best bet is to check out a Pokemon Typing Chart and decide which Pokemon to use based on the Tera Type of the Gimmighoul. Here a list of the Pokemon with the fewest weaknesses, in case players want to try their hand with these Pokemon.

This is the list of moves Gimmighoul will have, depending on their Tera-Type:

Normal - Take Down
Ghost - Shadow Ball
Ghost - Hex
Rock - Power Gem
Dark - Nasty Plot

Rewards For Completing The Gimmighoul Tera Raid

Big Pearl
Bitter Herba Mystica (5-Star only)
Exp Candy L
Exp Candy M
Kelpsy Berry
Lum Berry
Nugget
Sitrus Berry
Swift Feather
Tera Shards (for whichever Tera-Type Gimmighoul is)

Best Sandwiches For The Gimmighoul Tera Raids In Scarlet & Violet

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Shiny Gimmighoul Tera Raid Guide (9)

The best way to get a Shiny Gimmighoul is by ensuring that players are only taking on 5-Star Tera Raid Battles (these are the only ones that have a chance of having a shiny). Additionally, players will want to make sandwiches for the raid to get shinies. This guide breaks down how to make a Shiny Power sandwich for each Tera-Type.

The original shiny odds for Gimmighoul are 1 in 4103, so using the Shiny Power sandwiches is vital to obtaining a shiny.

Some sandwiches will give Raid Powers, which gives players more rewards after a Tera Raid Battle. Here are the best sandwiches and their ingredients for the Raid Power.

Sandwich Name	Sandwich Ingredients	Sandwich Powers
Master Smoky Sandwich	Basil Pepper Red Onion Salt Salty Herba Mystica Smoked Fillet Vinegar Watercress	Exp. Point Power: Psychic Lv. 2 Raid Power: Ghost Lv. 2 Title Power: Dark Lv. 2
Ultra Herbed-Sausage Sandwich	Herbed Sausage Ketchup Lettuce Mustard	Exp. Point Power: Ground Lv. 2 Raid Power: Ghost Lv. 2 Title Power: Fighting Lv. 1
