May 24th - 26th: 5* Sandy Shocks and Iron Thorns

[Arcticblast]

The next Tera Raid Battle event has been announced for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet This event will feature a focus on the Pokémon Sandy Shocks if you play Pokémon Scarlet or Iron Thorns if you play Pokémon Violet. These will be in 5 Star Raids and have various Tera Types
This event will run from 00:00 UTC on May 24th through 23:59 UTC on May 26th

Nothing super exciting, but at least the set Tera types are the ones people use.
also I want to feel cool and start the thread this time

Hey, I'm new here but have been lurking for a bit. I feel like Orthworm could have some potential versus iron thorns. Here's the sets I've come up with:

Orthworm @ Shell Bell
Ability: Earth Eater
Tera Type: Rock
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature
- Rock Slide
- Tera Blast
- Mud-Slap
- Curse

This is a more offensive build. The idea with it is quite obvious. Set up with curse and then spam rock slide/tera blast. Tera blast is there as a slightly more powerful and accurate rock move after you tera. Mud slap is really just a filler move.

Orthworm @ Leftovers
Ability: Earth Eater
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Helping Hand
- Metal Sound
- Mud-Slap
- Iron Defense

This is a supporting build, pretty obvious idea as well. ID is just really a filler move, there's probably not much that you can't tank, but it's there just in case.

Again, I do feel like orthworm has some potential, so I want to create some discussion around it, to see if anyone can come up with anything else.

These drop Sour Herba Mystica and Iron Thorns comes with Supercell Slam which is a nice bonus for any non-DLC players.
