February’s Pokemon Presents delivered a lot of exciting details, not least of all the addition of Walking Wake. The thing is, now we know there’s a new ‘mon for us to find, we need to figure out how to get Walking Wake in Pokemon Scarlet.
Walking Wake is part of a 5-Star Tera Battle Raid Event, running from February 27th until March 12th.
If you remember my guide on how to get Eevee in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, you’ll know exactly what Tera Raid Events involve, and what to look out for. But if you need a refresher, keep on reading!
How To Get Walking Wake In Pokemon Scarlet
To get Walking Wake, you need a Nintendo Switch Online account to connect to the internet via the Poke Portal. Once you’re connected, a list of available Raids will appear; choose the first to join the Walking Wake Raid.
Walking Wake is a Water/Dragon Type, however, don’t go thinking Grass Types will make quick work of it – Walking Wake knows Flamethrower, which will prove lethal.
The other moves Walking Wake know include:
- Noble Roar
- Sunny Day
- Hydrosteam
Given the variety of moves it can use, an Electric Type will ensure you get through this battle relatively unscathed. If you don’t have a strong Electric Type on your team already, learn how to get Bellibot in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet to quickly remedy this!
Trainers can only catch one Walking Wake per game, meaning that the only way to complete that Pokedex, at least when it comes to Paradox Pokemon, is to trade with your Violet pals.
A Note On Tera Raids
As previously stated, these Tera Raids will only be available until March 12th. What is more, Walking Wake is a Pokemon Scarlet exclusive – Pokemon Violet players will get Iron Leaves instead.
In which case, learn how to get Iron Leaves in Pokemon Violet.
If you don’t see the shining Water symbol on the map it’s because you haven’t unlocked 5-Star Tera Raids yet; you need to complete the game for them to appear.
Catching Walking Wake won’t be easy, but I have no doubt you’ll be able to pull it off!
For the Violet trainers among us, you need to head over to my how to get Iron Leaves in Pokemon Violet guide instead.
