Can big tidal waves come in intervals of years like shown in Pokémon?

Hi everyone

I just rewatched an episode of Pokémon where they go to a beach that gets a big tidal wave once every 20 years. It's so regular that people in the Pokémon world know when it's coming and all come to surf it.

My question is, does this happen in real life? Are there any examples if so?

I did try to Google it but it couldn't find any answers so I hope you surfing enthusiasts can help my curiosity.

Thank you in advance!
