I am considering giving Black Sludge to some of my Poison type Pokémon, but I want to know first if Black Sludge would still work for them even when they are Terastallized into a different type; they already keep their original STABs, but I just want to make sure for this scenario.

The opposing Amoonguss has Terastallized into the Grass-type!

The opposing Amoonguss was hurt by its Black Sludge!

Poison-type Pokémon that Terastallize and change their type (to anything other than Poison-) would not heal HP from Black Sludge.

Thank you for the heads up. Now I know not to set myself up for failure in the future once I get my copy of Scarlet soon.
