Tera Crystallization is the mechanic introduced in Generation 9 with Pokémon Scarlet and Purple . It allows us to transform Pokémon into crystallized specimens, thus temporarily changing their Type. This is a very useful resource when playing competitively, but also if we participate in Tera Raids such as Decidueye . Therefore, below, we leave you with all the necessary information to understand how this system works and so that you can take advantage of it. Don’t miss it!
How does Tera Crystallization work in Pokémon Scarlet and Purple?
As we were saying, Tera Crystallization allows us to change the Type of Pokémon during combat. This is a fundamental strategic factor, since changes in the Pokémon’s resistances and weaknesses come into play .
When putting this faculty into action, it is ideal that we take into account the following details:
- There are a total of 18 different Theratypes .
- Attacks of the same Theratype do more damage to enemies.
- We need the Teracrystal Orb to activate the ability.
- We can change the Teratype at the El Tesoro Inn in Mestura Town.
- Type-changing attacks do not work on crystallized specimens.
Where is the Teracrystalline Orb?
This item is obtained by progressing through the story of Pokémon Scarlet and Purple. More specifically, it is given to us by Mencía after defeating a Team Star recruit in Plateau City before entering the Academy.
On the other hand, it is possible to find wild specimens that have active Teracrystallization. When we explore, we will see that these are characterized by having a glow on them.
The Teraincursions
Teraraids can be accessed by exploring the environment. We will find crystals that give us access to these raids, either alone or in the company of up to 4 players.
- Tera Raids can be from 1 to 7 stars depending on the strength and rank of that Pokémon.
- We also find Black Crystal Teraincursions, belonging to events.
- To participate in Raids of more than 6 stars, we must have completed the Great Academic Brawl and have completed 15 raids before. We have 1 per day.
