NEW MECHANIC:[break]
STELLAR TERA TYPE

THE INDIGO DISK PATCH introduces the 19th tera type: Stellar.[break][break]

On Hoenn, Pokemon who have obtained ALL 18 TERA TYPES by using the 18 different TERA SHARDS a player can buy or earn, can unlock the Stellar Tera Type.[break][break]

Able to imagine themselves as all types, or conjuring ideas of multiplicitous selves in different timelines or universes, these Pokemon are able to terastallize into the remarkable Stellar Tera Type.[break][break]

WHILE TERASTALLIZED INTO THE STELLAR TERA TYPE:

[attr="class","ynospace"]

• The defensive/base typing of your Pokemon DOES NOT CHANGE.
• The first time a move of a particular type is used, the damage is boosted.
• If you use the same move or a different move of the same type, the damage is not boosted.[break][break]
  
  FOR EXAMPLE, if your Stellar Terastallized Pokemon uses Hydro Pump, they will get the damage boost the first time. Using Hydro Pump again or another Water-Type move like Bubble Beam will not have the same bonus.
• The move, TERA BLAST receives a boost in damage.
• The move, TERA BLAST will always be SUPER-EFFECTIVE against TERASTALLIZED POKEMON.

Please note that your Pokemon are still able to terastallize into their other tera types (instead of Stellar) if all Tera Shards have been used on them.[break][break]
