Summary

With Easter right around the corner,Pokemon Scarlet and Violetrevealed that a new Mass Outbreak event featuring Baby Pokemon will start at the end of March. This new Mass Outbreak event will givePokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers a chance to catch some rare Pokemon with a chance to carry an equally rare mark.

The latest Mass Outbreak event follows after the conclusion of a Five-Star Tera Raid event that featuredthe Paradox Pokemon Brute Bonnet and Iron Hands. Though Brute Bonnet and Iron Hands are normally found in Area Zero within their respective versions, the Five-Star Tera Raid battles allowed players to catch a level 75 Paradox Pokemon with a specific Tera type and a chance to obtain some Sweet Herba Mystica as a reward. Occasionally, in place of a Tera Raid battle event,Pokemon Scarlet and Violetgrant players a chance to catch different Pokemon that will appear in specific spots throughout Paldea, Kitakami, and the Terarium.
