[Update] PSA: Pokemon Scarlet/Violet Great Tusk/Iron Treads Tera Raids Reportedly Contain Game-Breaking Bug
The Great Tusk and Iron Treads Tera Raid Event is now live for Pokemon Scarlet And Violet today, but it seems some players are encountering a major issue when claiming their rewards.
As shared by @daikenblack on Twitter, completing the raid might sometimes reward players with a broken “None” item, which will then cause the game to crash. According to Serebii.net webmaster Joe Merrick, this bug is likely caused by the game attempting to generate TM Materials for the raid, which doesn’t exist for Paradox Pokemon.
Oh dear it gets a bit worse
It's trying to get the TM Material for the Paradoxes, which doesn't exist…however unlike when it tried that for Walking Wake/Iron Leaves, it seems to actually display here and then apparently crash
Definitely a fix incominghttps://t.co/ed4coTo2PD

At the time of this writing, The Pokemon Company has yet to acknowledge the issue, although we imagine a patch would probably be put out eventually. Stay tuned for more updates as they come.
What do you think? Let us know in the comments.
[Update]: The Pokemon Company has acknowledged the bug and pulled the entire event offline. Players are recommended to connect to the internet to update their raid dens, and avoid trying to battle the event raids if they still have access to them.
