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.
Psychic moves are bad against Dark.
Rock moves are bad against Steel/Fighting/Ground.
Water moves are bad against Water/Dragon/Grass.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Salandit is: Flying
Considering the amount of shared resistances against typings this Pokemon is usually weak to, we also recommend: Dark, Steel, Fighting, Ground, Water, Dragon or Grass
Terastallizing into one of it's default typings ( Poison or Fire ) could also prove helpful.

Salandit is a remarkable Special Sweeper in single battles. It's primary goal is to take down the opponent's team with high-damaging special attacks. Choice Specs will increase the damage of Salandit's special moves by 1.5x but will lock you into the first move you pick. With Corrosion, Salandit can poison or badly poison a pokemon regardless of its typing. With a Eject Pack equipped, if the holder's stat stages are lowered, it switches to a chosen ally; then the Eject Pack gets consumed.
♦ Flamethrower is a special STAB-boosted 90-base power Fire-type move (10% chance to burn the target).
♦ Sludge Bomb is a special STAB-boosted 90-base power Poison-type move (30% chance to poison the target).
♦ Venoshock is a special STAB-boosted 65-base power Poison-type move (power doubles if the target is poisoned).
♦ Tera Blast is a special 80-base power Normal-type move (if terastallized: becomes a Steel-type move).
♦ Foul Play is a physical 95-base power Dark-type move (uses target's attack stat in damage calculation).
