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.
Ground moves are bad against Flying.
Rock moves are bad against Steel/Fighting/Ground.
Water moves are bad against Water/Dragon/Grass.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Growlithe is: Flying, Steel, Fighting, Ground, Water, Dragon or Grass

Growlithe is a remarkable 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 Snarl) and raises Growlithe's special attack stat by 2 stages. With Flash Fire, Growlithe's fire attacks do 1.5x damage if hit by one fire move; fire immunity. With a Eject Pack equipped to it, if Growlithe's stat stages are lowered, it switches to a chosen ally then the Eject Pack gets consumed.
