Item: Chesto Berry
Ability: Overgrow
Nature: Timid (+Spe, -Atk)
EVs: 252 Hp / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Moveset:
- Calm Mind
- Taunt
- Giga Drain
- Rest / Protect
Serperior excels as a distinguished Support during single battles. With Overgrow, at 1/3 or less of its max hp Serperior's offensive stat is 1.5x with grass attacks. With good defenses and speed, Serperior is a great candidate for Calm Mind, needing very little help to set up. After one or two Calm Minds, Serperior's offensive abilities improve significantly, and enable it to bring down most Pokemon with a Giga Drain or Hidden Power. After a Calm Mind, Serperior's Special Attack will only be as high as a neutral natured Jellicent's, so getting off more than one Calm Mind should be your goal, and is safer when Serperior has Rest and Chesto Berry. With a Chesto Berry equipped to it, Serperior wakes up if it is asleep then the Chesto Berry gets consumed.
◆ Taunt is a status move (target can't use status moves its next 3 turns).
◆ Giga Drain is a special STAB-boosted 75-base power Grass-type move (Serperior recovers 50% of the damage dealt).
◆ Rest is a status move (Serperior sleeps 2 turns and restores hp and status).
◆ Protect is a status move (prevents moves from affecting your Serperior this turn).

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.
Bug moves are bad against Steel/Poison/Fairy/Fighting/Fire/Flying/Ghost.
Fire moves are bad against Water/Dragon/Rock/Fire.
Flying moves are bad against Steel/Rock/Electric.
Ice moves are bad against Water/Steel/Fire/Ice.
Poison moves are bad against Steel.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Serperior is: Steel
