Now that 7-Star Blaziken’s Tera Raid has begun, trainers are sharing different strategies they used to knock out the Fire/Fighting-type in one hit.
Pokemon Scarlet & Violet’s next 7-Star Tera Raid features the Fire/Fighting-type Starter Blaziken from Generation 3.
Like past 7-Star Tera Raids, Blaziken is no slouch. It will have its Hidden Ability Speed Boost as well as powerful moves like Blaze Kick, Earthquake, and Brave Bird.
However, that hasn’t stopped some trainers from stomping this blazing powerhouse, with some sharing the strategies they used to OHKO the 7-Star Tera Raid target.

Trainers have taken to social media platforms like Reddit to share their strats with the community.
One player used Blaziken’s Flying Tera Type to their advantage and relied on Pikachu to knock it out. According to the OP, their Raid team first used Simple Beam to change Blaziken’s ability, then used Scovillain’s Spicy Extract to lower its Defense.

Next, the Scovillain used Spicy Extract on Pikachu who held a Mirror Herb to double the Attack increase. Oranguru then transferred a Light Ball to Pikachu through Symbiosis, which allowed the Electric mouse to KO Blaziken in one hit with Volt Tackle.
Another trainer instead opted to use Cloyster with the Skill Link ability as their main attacker, but similarly utilized Scovillain, Oranguru, and the Mirror Herb.
After setting up their Buffs, Cloyster used Icicle Spear to steady whittle Blaziken’s HP down and KO it.

To round things out, one fan took down 7-Star Blaziken with a Miraidon holding Choice Specs. This strategy was fairly straightforward and began with Maraidon setting up Electric Terrain.
Next, the Stonjourner used Attack Cheer, while both Sudowoodo used Fake Tears. Finally, Miraidon used Electro Drift to OHKO Blaziken the Unrivaled.

It’s always interesting to see what strategies players can come up with to demolish these difficult Tera Raids. Hopefully, trainers can spare some time to defeat 7-Star Blaziken’s Tera Raid for themselves while it’s still around.
