>>53801684When you think about it, Terastal's item slot is the Pokémon's type.
>>53802459>It is an interesting mechanic, but it has become Z move 2.0, which is poor because it makes GOOD pokemon better, so weaker mons aren't worth wasting a 1 time boost to, and again favors offensive pokemon better than any other pokemon.I agree. That kind of balance is why I'm not a fan of gimmicky power-ups that affect all Pokémon and prefer Mega Evolution, although I do like Terastal over Z-Moves and Dynamax. I'm also not a fan of how they handled STAB for Terastal; if you're going to change your type, fully commit to your new type. It just encourages hyper offense like certain other adjustments that were also done in SV.
