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 Cresselia is: Electric, Fairy or Fighting

Cresselia is a legendary Special Sweeper for single battles. It was designed to take down the opponent's team with high-damaging special attacks. Choice Specs will increase the damage of Cresselia's special moves by 1.5x but will lock you into the first move you pick. Life Orb boosts the power of Cresselia's damaging moves by 1.3x but it then loses 1/10 its max HP immediately after the attack. With Levitate, Cresselia is immune to damaging Ground-typed moves (except Thousand Arrows). Levitate also makes Cresselia 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.
