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

Physical Sweeper Vespiquen (Pressure)
Vespiquen is a marvelous Physical Sweeper in single battles. The purpose of this moveset is to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. Choice Band will increase the damage of Vespiquen's physical moves by 1.5x at the cost of locking you into the first move you pick. Life Orb boosts the power of Vespiquen's damaging moves by 1.3x but it then loses 1/10 its max HP immediately after the attack. With Pressure, if Vespiquen is the target of a foe's move that move loses one additional pp. Facade's damage doubles when the user has a status affliction.
♦ X-Scissor is a physical STAB-boosted 80-base power Bug-type move that deals a good amount of damage.
♦ Tera Blast is a special 80-base power Normal-type move (if terastallized: becomes a physical Steel-type move).
♦ Slash is a physical 70-base power Normal-type move (high critical hit ratio).
♦ Facade is a physical 70-base power Normal-type move (power doubles if Vespiquen is burn/poison/paralyzed).
♦ Acrobatics is a physical STAB-boosted 55-base power Flying-type move (power doubles if your Vespiquen has no held item).
