New Pokemon SV Tera Raid Will Give 5 IVs Ditto

From April 7-10, 2023, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players will be able to participate in a new Tera Raid featuring Ditto. The Dittos that you can get during this event will have a large variety of Tera Types. However, what makes this Ditto stand apart from the rest is in its EVs. Players will be able to get Dittos with five max Individual Values from these raids. [Thanks, Game Watch!]

This Tera Raid event will be useful for players who wish to breed strong Pokemon. If you use a Destiny Knot, you can pass down whatever perfect IVs your Ditto has. These Pokemon only know Transform. This means that your Raids will be as easy or as hard as whatever Pokemon your host brings.

In Pokemon, IVs determine the stats of your Pokemon. A Pokemon’s IV can have an effects on its gender and whether or not it’s a Shiny. For some Pokemon, it can also have to do with more species-specific differences, such as what letter your Unown is or what pattern your Smeargle is. They do not matter so much in game play if all you wish to do is beat the story. But competitive Pokemon players often pick and choose Pokemon to breed using IVs as one of their deciding factors.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are available on the Nintendo Switch, and the perfect IVs Ditto Tera Raid will run from April 7-10, 2023. It will run on the same days as the 7-star Samurott Tera Raid.
