Until Sunday, August 17, 2025, at 23:59 UTC, a Shiny Chien-Pao with Ice as its Tera Type will be appearing in 5-star Tera Raid Battles. During this event, Trainers worldwide can unite against this Ruinous Pokémon for a chance to add it to their teams.
Unlike standard Tera Raid Battles, Shiny Chien-Pao cannot be caught upon being defeated. Instead, if the total number of player victories against this Pokémon collectively meets or exceeds one million during its event period, Shiny Chien-Pao will subsequently be available to claim via Mystery Gift during its distribution period.
For every one hundred thousand player victories collectively exceeding one million against this Pokémon, a Tera Shard Set—each containing 40 Tera Shards—will also be distributed (up to a maximum of 10 sets total). Work together with Trainers around the world to challenge the treasures of ruin and welcome them as allies!
~The final total of player victories against this Pokémon is scheduled to be announced at approximately 00:00 UTC on the Friday following the conclusion of this Tera Raid Battle event.~
~The Shiny Chien-Pao appearing during this event may be featured in future events or become obtainable through other methods.~

This week was not as Trekful as last week was, but being caught up on SNW has given us the freedom to explore more Trek!
Throughout my wife's journey into Trek, Voyager has remained her favorite, so we started watching it again. We switched our Paramount+ from Prime to standalone, but we forgot to check where we were in Voyager first.
I know we had watched False Profits, so we started with s3e6 Remember, we also watched e7 Sacred Ground, e8 Future's End, and started e9 Future's End II.
We also got in a little more TAS, s1e2 Yesteryear, and s1e3 One of Our Planets Is Missing.
We balanced TAS with some LD, s3e6 the deep space nine one, my wife has never seen ds9 so there was some explaining to be done.
We also watched the new SNW, which was a lot of fun. I have only seen STVI once, maybe twice, and the revelation about Spock being descended from Arthur Conan Doyle.
