Clodsire can learn Mud Slap which, while it doesn’t deal lots of damage, is able to lower the boss' accuracy by 1 stage with each hit.

With its unbelievable power, Krookodile eclipses Tera Raid bosses and leaves them in the dirt.

Krookodile isn’t called the “Intimidation Pokemon” for nothing. It’s Grpund/Dark typing is good for having immunity to Electric and Psychic type moves, but this croc’s got way more bite than that.

Krookodile has a massive Attack stat that synergizes well with its hidden ability Anger point. This ability activates when Krookodile’s hit by a move with a critical hit, but here’s the best part: once this ability activates, it raises Krookodile’s Attack stat by 6 stages max! This ability even activates if Krookodile is hit when using Substitute.

Combine this with a move like Power Trip, which increases in  damage based on the user’s raised stats, Krookodile becomes one heck of a powerhouse. Though even without Anger Point, it learns plenty of other solid moves like Bulk Up, Earthquake, and Scary Face to help out in Tera Raid boss fights.

Teal Mask Ogerpon has the ability Defiant, which boosts her already high Attack stat for  every stat that is lowered, and gets Embody Aspect which will boost her Speed when Terastallized. With her Attack stat raised and STAB, Ogerpon can use Horn Leech to deal big damage while healing and Ivy Cudgel for some powerful attacks. These attacks will hit a lot harder if you use Grassy Terrain beforehand.

Hearthflame Ogerpon’s ability is Moldbreaker, which lets her use moves regardless of the opponent’s ability. With her Fire typing, Ivy Cudgel gets an increase in power from Sunny Day and Ogerpon’s Synthesis will heal even more HP. Combined with Swords Dance, and another Attack boost from Embody Aspect, Ogerpon will blaze through whatever tricks a Tera Raid boss brings to the battlefield.

Wellspring Mask Ogerpon has Water Absorb, making her useful for Water Type Tera Raid bosses Terastallized into a different type.

Embody Aspect will boost her Special Defense too.

Cornerstone Mask Ogerpon gets Sturdy, letting her survive any powerful attacks. But Embody Aspect will boost her Defense and her Special Defense gets an increase during Sandstorm weather.

Also, her Grass/Rock typing covers most of Grass types weaknesses and using the Cornerstone Maskmask gives Ogerpon a strong boost in her Defense. This works with a move like Charm for lowering an opponent’s Attack stat. Bringing Swords Dance and Ivy Cudgel into the mix, Cornerstone Mask Ogerpon has a mix of good offense and defense.

Basically, Ogerpon is a very versatile Pokemon. Every form has its strengths and setbacks, so either of the four options is a good pick!

Ogerpon Strengths

• Strong and Swift with its Attack and Speed stat
• Can switch her typings with her masks
• Gets useful abilities that synergize with her typings
