Dragapult the Unrivaled marks the end of a year-long saga
During Pokemon Day 2025 celebrations in February, The Pokemon Company stated that most of this year's seven-star Tera Raid battles in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will feature pseudo-legendary Pokemon from across the franchise. Strong iterations of Dragonite, Metagross, and similar Pokémon appeared in Seven-Star Tera Raid lairs throughout Paldea, each giving trainers a different challenge to face. For example, Tyranitar forced Pokemon trainers to develop clever strategies to defeat it, while the raw power of enemies like Garchomp proved to be a difficult challenge for even the most experienced. Pokemon fighters.
In July 2025, the seven-star Tera Raid battle campaign, which featured generations of pseudo-legendary Pokémon, went on a four-month hiatus. This break was caused by others Pokemon Scarlet and Violet events such as Shiny Treasures of Ruin and the controversial Shiny Koraidon and Miraidon distribution events that took place during the summer and fall.

What Pokémon will work against Dragapult?
Dragapult the Unrivaled will have one of three abilities, all of which can be annoying Pokemon trainers to deal with. For its standard abilities, Clear Body negates stat reduction from moves and abilities, while Infiltrator allows Dragapult to ignore Reflect or Light Screen and deal full damage. However, Dragapult's hidden ability, Cursed Body, can cause an attacking Pokemon's moves to be temporarily disabled, which could make overcoming time a difficult task. Moves like Skill Swap and Gastro Acid are recommended to negate the effects of Dragapult's ability, regardless of which one he uses during the upcoming battle.
Although dragon-type Pokemon are weak to ice and dragon attacks, Dragapult the Unrivaled can counter these two weaknesses with moves. However, Dragapult has no coverage against Fairy-type Pokémon, making it the safest type to use against Stealth Pokémon. This is due to the fact that Fairy Pokémon are immune to Dragon Darts and other Dragon-type moves. Additionally, Fairy-type attacks such as Moonblast deal super effective damage to draconic enemies. Animals like Sylveon, Primarina, and Galarian Weezing could prove useful against Dragapult the Unrivaled. Time will tell what strategy Pokemon Scarlet and Violet trainers evolve against Dragapult.
