Terastal Phenomenon
In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet (Generation 9), each Pokémon in Paldea has a Tera Type. A Pokémon's Tera Type is inactive until the Pokémon Terastallizes, at which time the Pokémon's type will change to its Tera Type.
There are 18 types, meaning there are countless combinations of Pokémon and Tera Types. Terastallizing a Pokémon allows you to enhance your battle strategies by increasing the power of any moves that have the same type as your Pokémon’s Tera Type or by changing your Pokémon’s weaknesses.
Fighting moves are bad against Ghost.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Aipom is: Ghost

Aipom is a stupendous Physical Sweeper for single battles. It is designed to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. King's Rock grants all attacking moves (that do not already have a chance to flinch) a 10% chance of causing each target to flinch. Focus Sash helps protect Aipom from being one-shotted and allowing it to atleast use a crucial move when brought out. With Skill Link, Aipom's multi-hit attacks will always hit the maximum number of times. Facade's damage doubles when the user has a status affliction.
