3 Solo Builds for 7-Star Samurott
Here are three viable solo Pokemon builds for the 7-star Samurott Tera Raid in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
Tauros, Annihilape, and Koraidon consistently earned me victories when challenging Samurott alone.
Tauros (Blaze Breed)
Fire type Tauros is exclusive to Pokemon Scarlet.
Strategy
Start the fight with one or two Tail Whips. Samurott will then knock you out. When you revive, use Sunny day to boost your fire type damage. Samurott's critical hit will trigger Anger Point, maximizing your attack. Now use Raging Bull repeatedly until you win! Don't forget to Terastalize as soon as possible.
Tip: Raging Bull may seem normal type at first, but it changes type based on the breed of the Tauros!
