Leveling in Violet (and I am guessing by extension Scarlett) is super tedious (lemm.ee)

I first started playing Violet a month and a half ago. A couple weeks into playing my wife expressed interest in playing too. So I got a copy of Scarlet for her. Since I was so far ahead of her (both in the actual game and knowledge of the games, I have been playing since LG/FR, while she has only played GO) I decided to take a break from Violet to finally play Shield. I purchased it when it came out but never left the starting town.

I have now beaten Shield and use the raids there to level my Pokémon in Violet. In Violet I have beaten all of the gyms, all of the Titans, and just have 1 more Star Base. When trying to join a Tera raid I can only join random ones, the ones on be board always say I failed to join. But doing the random raids I end up with so many 1*-3*s. When I am looking for raids I am having the same issue, they are all lower.

Even before I became the champion in Shield it was faster to level by transferring my Pokémon.

I've done enpugh raids in SV that I can 1 to 100 any pokemon on an instant thanks to all the exp candies I have. High level raids drop them a lot, and some events can get you up to 999 Large candies.

But do those happen before you beat say the 5th gym? Because I was struggling to keep up with game progression.

Lower level raids still drop lower tier candies. Mid game grind shouldn't be too bad when doing the overworld auto-battles, I don't remember what those are called.
