Terastallization
Terastallization is a once-per-battle change that replaces a Pokémon's defensive types with its single Tera Type
Scarlet and Violet introduced it in 2022, powered by a Tera Orb that recharges at a Pokémon Center. Every individual has one Tera Type, which can differ from its normal types. Moves of the Tera Type with under 60 base power are raised to 60, with exceptions for multi-hit and priority moves.
Main-series games; introduced in Generation IX, Scarlet and Violet.
One later change
- The Indigo Disk added the Stellar Tera Type, which keeps the original defensive types and boosts each move type once.
