Every Pokémon that can learn Belly Drum in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet

For faster Tera Raids!

Few moves have seen as much use as Belly Drum during Tera Raids in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Belly Drum is a Normal-type move that raises a Pokémon’s Attack stage to maximum. I try to always include a Pokémon with this move when playing Tera Raids, and I'm excited to see which Pokémon added from the Teal Mask DLC have Belly Drum.

Which Pokémon can learn Belly Drum in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet?

Many Pokémon can learn Belly Drum through leveling up in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, but some can only learn it through breeding or the Move Reminder. I've compiled a list of all Pokémon who can learn Belly Drum through the base game of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, as well as those found in the Teal Mask's Kitakami area. Below are all the Pokémon that can use Belly Drum in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet:

In fact, you can defeat most Tera Raids solo as long as you have an Iron Hands with Belly Drum. Just make sure it knows Drain Punch! If you’re raiding with friends, they can bring a Pokémon that knows Screech or Spicy Extract, and it’ll be the perfect setup. But with more 7-Star Tera Raids appearing, you may need to diversify your Belly Drum Pokémon.
