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.
Dark moves are bad against Fairy/Fighting/Dark.
Ghost moves are bad against Normal.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Mismagius is: Electric, Fairy, Fighting, Dark or Normal

Special Sweeper Mismagius (Levitate)
Mismagius is a pretty decent Special Sweeper in single battles. It is primarily designed to take down the opponent's team with high-damaging special attacks. Focus Sash helps protect Mismagius from being one-shotted and allowing it to atleast use a crucial move when brought out. Choice Specs will increase the damage of Mismagius's special moves by 1.5x but will lock you into the first move you pick. With Levitate, Mismagius is immune to damaging Ground-typed moves (except Thousand Arrows). Levitate also makes Mismagius 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.
