Anyone who defeats this Water-Type starter Pokemon in its corresponding 7-Star Tera Raid battle will be able to catch it, so naturally, we did just that.✃ Check out all its stats, abilities, and moves below.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Samurott loot list
Here’s everything I earned during my first clear of this battle. As a reminder, you can only catch Samurott once while the even🐻t is live. However, you can run the battle conti🀅nuously for rewards.
- Exp.Candy L x6
- Exp.Candy XL x4
- Protein x5

- Protein x5
- Lonely Mint x1
- Exp. Candy L x5

Overall, the drops are🐼 similar to the Decidueye 7-Star encounter, which is to be expected. TM088 (Swordsꦫ Dance) and the Ability Patch are only guarenteed to drop once, though more Ability Patches may appear if you continue to farm this encounter.
