Hailing from Hisui (Pokemon Legend Arceus' setting), Hisuian Samurott boasts a dual-type combination of Water and Dark.

While players can get an Oshawott if they breed it with a Ditto in Paldea, they can't evolve it into its Hisuian final form in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. To do so, they will have to transfer Oshawott to Pokemon Legends Arceus, evolve it to Dewott and Hisuian Samurott there, and finally bring it back to the Gen IX titles.

The best counters for Hisuian Samurott with Water Tera Type are Breloom, Clodsire, Breloom, Miraidon, Wash Rotom, Meowscarada, and Chesnaught. Players desiring to take on the 7-star Tera Raid boss alone can check out our solo raid guide for the same.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players will require the latest version of Poke Portal News to participate in the latest 7-star Tera Raid Battle event. They will also need a Nintendo Switch Online membership if they want to join other trainers and fight Hisuian Samurott.
