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.
Poison moves are bad against Steel.
Steel moves are bad against Water/Steel/Electric/Fire.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Igglybuff is: Steel
Terastallizing into one of it's default typings ( Normal or Fairy ) could also prove useful.

Special Sweeper Igglybuff (Competitive)
Igglybuff is an astounding Special Sweeper in single battles. This moveset is designed 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 increases Igglybuff's special attack stat by 2 stages. Life Orb boosts the power of Igglybuff's damaging moves by 1.3x but it then loses 1/10 its max HP immediately after the attack. With Competitive, Igglybuff's sp. Atk is raised by 2 for each of its stats that is lowered by a foe.
♦ Dazzling Gleam is a special STAB-boosted 80-base power Fairy-type move (no additional effect. Hits adjacent foes).
♦ Draining Kiss is a special STAB-boosted 50-base power Fairy-type move (Igglybuff recovers 75% of the damage dealt).
♦ Tera Blast is a special STAB-boosted 80-base power Normal-type move (if terastallized: becomes a Rock-type move).
♦ Psychic is a special 90-base power Psychic-type move (10% chance to lower the target's special defense by 1 stage).
