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.
Rock moves are bad against Steel/Fighting/Ground.
Water moves are bad against Water/Dragon/Grass.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Torkoal is: Flying, Steel, Fighting, Ground, Water, Dragon or Grass

Physical Sweeper Torkoal (Drought)
Torkoal is a notable Physical Sweeper in single battles. It's designed to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. The Shell Bell item option is to help Torkoal recover from the recoil damage it may take from Flare Blitz. Drought changes the weather to Intense Sunlight when Torkoal is sent out onto the field. This help boosts all fire attacks while the Sunlight remains active. Equipping Heat Rock helps extend sunny weather effects this Pokemon creates from 5 turns to 8 instead. Rock Slide was added to provide additional threat coverage.
♦ Flame Wheel is a physical STAB-boosted 60-base power Fire-type move (10% chance to burn the target. Thaws Torkoal).
♦ Tera Blast is a special 80-base power Normal-type move (if terastallized: becomes a physical Steel-type move).
♦ Earthquake is a physical 100-base power Ground-type move (hits adjacent pokemon).
♦ Stomping Tantrum is a physical 75-base power Ground-type move (power doubles if your Torkoal's last move failed).
♦ Rock Slide is a physical 75-base power Rock-type move (30% chance to make the foes flinch).
♦ Body Slam is a physical 85-base power Normal-type move (30% chance to paralyze the target).
