POKÉMON Scarlet & Violet is preparing for Regulation G where Terapagos, Koraidon, and Miraidon will be available for battle for the first time.
The changes to the format will allow different Pokémon to come to the forefront of competitive play.
Aside from VGC, many people are hoping to fill out their collections with any Pokémon they are still missing.
That’s why fans are thrilled that Walking Wake and Iron Leaves will return to five-star raids, giving you another chance to grab them.
You can only own one of each per save file, which means that those who missed out on the last event couldn’t find people to trade with them.
Walking Wake and Iron Leaves will be available for about 10 days from Friday, April 26, 2024, until Tuesday, May 7, 2024.
Walking Wake comes with the Water Tera type and a number of powerful moves, but Gastrodon is a great counter for it.
Gastrodon negates all damage dealt from Water-type moves, and boosts its Special Attack when hit with them.
This means it can hit back with its own powerful moves, easily out damaging it without being taken down.
Iron Leaves comes with the Psychic Tera type and can hit with a number of strong physical attacks.
Kingambit is the perfect counter to this, thanks to its high defense, Dark typing, and ability to deal a huge amount of damage.
If you caught Walking Wake and Iron Leaves before then you will not be able to catch another one, but you can take part in as many raids as you want.
Walking Wake will be a Scarlet exclusive, while Iron Leaves is a Violet exclusive and you’ll have to team up with others if you want to catch both.
