Raw event not present in typings

See original GitHub issue

Please describe the problem you are having in as much detail as possible: client.on(“raw”…) throws an error when using typescript in strict mode

Include a reproducible code sample here, if possible:

typescript:

import { Client } from "discord.js";

const client = new Client();
client.on("raw", (pk) => {
  console.log(pk);
});

Error message

The same code run using javascript works perfectly

Further details:

discord.js version: 12.2
Node.js version: 12.6, but running with ts-jest (tested with typescript 3.8.3 and 3.9.1-rc)
Operating system: windows 10
Priority this issue should have – please be realistic and elaborate if possible: idk
