From Ghostly Origins to Fiery Presence
The Pokémon world is ever-evolving, and one of its latest curveballs is setting fans ablaze with excitement. If you’re playing Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, prepare to take on a different kind of heat as Hisuian Typhlosion makes its grand entrance. Known as the Ghost Flame Pokémon, this isn’t your typical Typhlosion—it’s bringing a blend of spectral and fiery elements that’s got even veteran trainers sitting up and taking notice.
“The arrival of Hisuian Typhlosion in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet follows the pattern of past Starter Pokémon in their final forms appearing as Tera raid bosses for players to battle and catch.”
When Ghost Met Fire: A Hisuian Evolution
Originally introduced as an exclusive to Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Hisuian Typhlosion evolved from the adorable Cyndaquil and carries a dual Fire and Ghost typing. While its Johtonian cousin focuses solely on Fire, the Ghost Flame Pokémon adds a sprinkle of the supernatural to its abilities.
“Unlike its Johtonian counterpart, which is a pure Fire-type, Hisuian Typhlosion is a Ghost and Fire dual-type.”
The result? You’re looking at a Pokémon with stats quite similar to the original Typhlosion but with an elemental twist that adds layers of strategy to any battle.
“The Ghost Flame Pokémon has similar special attack and speed statistics to the original.”
The Terrible Tera Raids: Hisuian Typhlosion’s Debut
Clear your schedules, trainers. Hisuian Typhlosion will be the star of its own seven-star Tera raid battles, challenging your party like never before.
“Pokemon trainers eager to take on Hisuian Typhlosion will not have to wait too much longer, as the battle begins shortly after another Ghost-type Pokémon leaves the spotlight.”
The first raid event is set to begin on Thursday, November 2, at 8:00 p.m. Eastern and will wrap up on Sunday, November 5, at 7:59 p.m. Eastern. Missed the first round? Don’t sweat it. There’s a second shot at glory from November 9 to November 12.
“The battle against Hisuian Typhlosion the Unrivaled just two days after the conclusion of the ongoing Mismagius Halloween Tera raids in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.”
Combat Details: Strategy is Key
Hisuian Typhlosion has its signature move, Infernal Parade, that not only packs a punch but can burn its target and deal double damage if the target has a status condition. This new Tera type Typhlosion doesn’t play around; it’s loaded with powerful Fire-type moves like Flamethrower, Eruption, and Fire Blast.
“Hisuian Typhlosion is also capable of moves such as Low Kick, Focus Blast, Sunny Day, and Solar Beam for type coverage.”

Bring Your A-Team
This raid is going to be tough; there’s no two ways about it. Trainers are advised to bring heavy-hitters like Politoed, Blissey, Umbreon, or Walking Wake to the battlefield.
“Though it may be one of the hardest Tera raid battles in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet to date, trainers that bring Pokémon such as Politoed, Blissey, Umbreon, or Walking Wake should be able to take down the Ghost Flame Pokémon.”
Time will only tell how the battle will fare, but it’s sure to ignite conversations and strategy discussions among fans and gamers alike.
So, are you up for the challenge? Only the bravest trainers will have the chance to catch this ethereal, fiery wonder. Get ready to catch some serious heat!
