No matter how many there have been since, one Legendary Pok\u00e9mon design stands tall to this day \u2013 and that\u2019s Mewtwo.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, the developers know this and have added the Psychic-type Legendary to Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mewtwo has etched its way into Pok\u00e9mon folklore. The fan favourite was first introduced in Pok\u00e9mon Red and Blue way back in the long, long ago times of the 1990s \u2013 and was an instant classic.<\/p>\n

The mysterious alien-like design is creepy enough to be cool without looking downright terrifying, and this was only backed up further by the incredible Pok\u00e9mon: The First Movie (1998).<\/p>\n

Now, Mewtwo has been added to Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet<\/a> in the form of a seven-star Tera Raid Battle. Defeat the Mightiest Mark holding Mewtwo to earn a chance to catch it \u2013 only one per save file, we\u2019re afraid!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s everything you need to know about how to get Mewtwo in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet.<\/p>\n

Read on for our best Tera Raid tips and to find out what the best Mewtwo counters and weaknesses to exploit are.<\/p>\n

When are the Mewtwo Tera Raids in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Mewtwo Tera Raids in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet are taking place between Friday 1st September (1am BST) to Monday 18th September 2023 (12:59am BST)<\/b>.<\/p>\n

You will have until 12:59am on 18th September to defeat and catch this special Mewtwo holding the Mightiest Mark.<\/p>\n

The Mewtwo Tera Raid is a seven-star battle. This means you will need to be able to find black Tera Raid crystals on the open world map if you\u2019re looking to complete the event by yourself or instigate the battle.<\/p>\n

As such, you will need to have completed the game and then some. More on that below.<\/p>

How to get Mewtwo in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet<\/b><\/h2>\n

To get Mewtwo in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet, you need to defeat the legendary Pok\u00e9mon in a seven-star Tera Raid Battle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Once you have defeated the powerful Psychic-type foe, you will be given the chance to catch Mewtwo to keep for your own use, along with the Mightiest Mark.<\/p>\n

While anyone can take part in the Mewtwo Tera Raid Battle with other players online, if you wish to tackle the event on your own or instigate the battle to take on with your friends, you will need to have completed the game first.<\/p>\n

To unlock seven-star Tera Raids, you will need to complete the game. After you have done so, you need to defeat all of the Gyms once more and complete the Ace Tournament. Then, you need to take part in 10 different four and five-star Tera Raids.<\/p>\n

Once you\u2019ve done all that, you should start seeing black crystals containing high-level Tera Raids on the map. Remember to download the latest Pok\u00e9 Portal news from the in-game menu to participate in the event if you haven\u2019t done so already:<\/p>\n
