Scraggy Special Wall (Bae )
Scraggy is a pretty decent Special Wall for single battles. It is primarily designed to take a decent amount of hits from special attacks while dealing some decent damage. Scraggy is not a Pokemon anyone usually expects sees on the battlefield until it was realized Eviolite would make it quite viable. If Eviolite is held by a Pokémon that is not fully evolved, it will raises the Defense and Special Defense of that Pokemon by 50%. With Shed Skin, Scraggy has a 33% chance to have its status cured at the end of each turn. I partake in Wonder Trade Wednesdays with King Nappy and Hoodlum Scrafty. While taking part, I wonder-traded with a Nintendo worker and acquired this. O.T: Smogon. I freaked out so hard. It is now my best mid-game sweeper. The only problem is that it can't stand fairy types.
◆ Bulk Up is a status move (raises your Scraggy's attack and defense by 1 stage).
◆ Knock Off is a physical STAB-boosted 65-base power Dark-type move (1.5x damage if foe holds an item; Note: This will also remove that item).
◆ Rest is a status move (Scraggy sleeps 2 turns and restores hp and status).

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.
Fairy moves are bad against Steel/Poison/Fire.
Fighting moves are bad against Ghost.
Flying moves are bad against Steel/Rock/Electric.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Scraggy is: Steel, Poison or Fire
Considering the amount of shared resistances against typings this Pokemon is usually weak to, we also recommend: Ghost, Steel, Rock or Electric
We strongly suggest: Ghost, Steel, Rock or Electric
Terastallizing into one of it's default typings ( Dark or Fighting ) could also prove helpful.
