After June 21, 2023's [[Nintendo Direct]] aired, the 25th Tera Raid Battle event featuring [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Gimmighoul|Chest Form]] {{p|Gimmighoul}} was announced. Gimmighoul with various Tera Types appeared in 1-5 Tera Raid Battles from June 21 (15:00 UTC) to July 2 (23:59 UTC), 2023.<ref>https://sv-news.pokemon.co.jp/ja/page/100.html</ref>

Notably, in 5★ Tera Raids exclusively, there was a chance to encounter {{Shiny}} Gimmighoul, which isn't possible to encounter during regular gameplay, however, the chance for a 5★ Gimmighoul to appear as Shiny was the standard 1/4103.05 odds.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1671542832794877954</ref>
Notably, in 5★ Tera Raids exclusively, there was a chance to encounter {{Shiny}} Gimmighoul, which isn't possible to encounter during regular gameplay, however, the chance for a 5★ Gimmighoul to be Shiny was not increased from the standard chances of encountering a Shiny in a Tera Raid.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1671542832794877954</ref>
* As only 5★ Gimmighoul raids were able to be Shiny, the functional chance to encounter a Shiny Gimmighoul raid was 349311/{{wp|4,294,967,295|4294967295}}, or approximately '''~1/12296''', due to the [[RNG]] being limited to a {{wp|32-bit computing|32-bit unsigned integer}}, and many of the possible seeds being occupied by 3★ and 4★ raids, which were [[Appendix:Fan terminology#Shiny-locked|Shiny-locked]].


Initially, from 15:00 UTC to approximately 17:30 UTC, there was a [[List of glitches (Generation IX)#June 21 to July 2, 2023 Poké Portal News 0 Tera Shards glitch|glitch]] in the event data for [[Pokémon Scarlet]]. Players with Scarlet who completed the event raids were shown reward screens showing multiple instances of "0 [[Tera Shard]]s" as a reward (due to a null item reward pool), and were prevented from joining the raids of [[Pokémon Violet]] players, who were unaffected by the bug. New event raid data was uploaded the server shortly after, with Scarlet players who connected online after 17:30 UTC receiving raids with correct reward pools, and being able to join raids hosted by players with Violet.<ref>https://twitter.com/JoeMerrick/status/1671575089018552320</ref>
