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.
Bug moves are bad against Steel/Poison/Fairy/Fighting/Fire/Flying/Ghost.
Dark moves are bad against Fairy/Fighting/Dark.
Ghost moves are bad against Normal.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Chingling is: Electric, Fairy or Fighting

Special Sweeper Chingling (Levitate)
Chingling is an outstanding Special Sweeper for single battles. It's purpose is to take down the opponent's team with high-damaging special attacks. Throat Spray activates when a Pokemon uses a sound-based move (in this case Hyper Voice) and raises Chingling's special attack stat by 2 stages. Life Orb boosts the power of Chingling's damaging moves by 1.3x but it then loses 1/10 its max HP immediately after the attack. With Levitate, Chingling is immune to damaging Ground-typed moves (except Thousand Arrows). Levitate also makes Chingling unaffected by the effects of Spikes, Arena Trap, Toxic Spikes, Sticky Web, Rototiller or terrain effects. Keep in mind that Ingrain, Gravity, Smack down and the Iron ball item will nullify Levitate's effect.
◆ Psyshock is a special STAB-boosted 80-base power Psychic-type move (damages target based on defense, not special defense).
◆ Hyper Voice is a special TERA-boosted 90-base power Normal-type move (no additional effect. Hits adjacent foes).
◆ Tera Blast is a special TERA-boosted 80-base power Normal-type move (if terastallized: becomes a Normal-type move).
◆ Energy Ball is a special 90-base power Grass-type move (10% chance to lower the target's special defense by 1 stage).
◆ Grass Knot is a special 0-base power Grass-type move (more power the heavier the target).
◆ Dazzling Gleam is a special 80-base power Fairy-type move (no additional effect. Hits adjacent foes).
