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.
Fighting moves are bad against Ghost.
Fire moves are bad against Water/Dragon/Rock/Fire.
Flying moves are bad against Steel/Rock/Electric.
Ice moves are bad against Water/Steel/Fire/Ice.
Poison moves are bad against Steel.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Deerling is: Steel
Terastallizing into one of it's default typings ( Normal or Grass ) could also prove useful.
