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