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.
Fire moves are bad against Water/Dragon/Rock/Fire.
Rock moves are bad against Steel/Fighting/Ground.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Charjabug is: Water, Dragon, Rock, Fire, Steel, Fighting or Ground
Terastallizing into one of it's default typings ( Bug or Electric ) could also prove beneficial.

Charjabug is a remarkable Physical Sweeper for single battles. It's designed to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. Charjabug is not a Pokemon anyone usually expects sees on the battlefield but Eviolite makes it possibly stronger than it's final form. If Eviolite is held by a Pokémon that is not fully evolved, it will raises the Defense and Special Defense of that Pokemon by 50%. The Shell Bell item option is to help Charjabug recover from the recoil damage it may take from Wild Charge. With Battery, Charjabug's allies have the power of their special attacks multiplied by 1.3.
◆ Spark is a physical STAB-boosted 65-base power Electric-type move (30% chance to paralyze the target).
◆ Lunge is a physical STAB-boosted 80-base power Bug-type move (100% chance to lower the target's attack by 1 stage).
◆ X-Scissor is a physical STAB-boosted 80-base power Bug-type move that deals a mighty amount of damage.
◆ Tera Blast is a special 80-base power Normal-type move (if terastallized: becomes a physical Psychic-type move).
◆ Crunch is a physical 80-base power Dark-type move (20% chance to lower the target's defense by 1 stage).
◆ Bite is a physical 60-base power Dark-type move (30% chance to make the target flinch).
