As a pure Water-type Pokémon, Feraligatr is weak to Grass- and Electric-type moves. However, since it has the Dark-Tera type, it will be weak against Fighting, Bug, and Fairy during the battle Pokemon and attacks.
The hidden ability Pure power increases the power of all Feraligatr’s moves with additional effects by 30%, but at the same time removes such additional effects. This means that certain moves will hit harder, but they cannot cause stat drops or buffs, flinching, or other statuses.

Dear counters
GAME FREAK/THE POKEMON COMPANY
To help you defeat Dark-Tera Type Feraligatr with the Mightiest Mark, here are the best counters to bring into battle:
Koraidon
Due to its dual typing, the legendary Koraidon will be weak to Feraligatr’s Psychic, Ice, and Dragon moves, but will resist its main Water and Dark attacks. However, once you terastallize it, you can hit Feraligatr’s Fighting-type weakness harder, and you’ll only be weak to Psychic Fangs.

The Orichalcum pulse skill will boost Koraidon’s attack while holding item Expert belt will increase the power of all super effective moves (the fighting ones). This will work fine Collision coursewhich hits even harder if it is a super effective blow.

Use to keep your health bar safe Drain punch to steal HP from Feraligatr.
Come-o
Like Koraidon, the pseudo-legendary Kommo-o will have a few weak spots at the start of the encounter, but terastallizing will change the encounter.
Kommo-o’s skills are of no use in this battle, so don’t worry about it. However, since you have no restorative moves, you use the Shell bell item to restore a small amount of HP each time you deal damage.

Use to start the encounter Scream to lower Feraligatr’s defense and then spam Breaking wipe to deal damage and reduce your target’s damage.
Then use Iron defense to improve your defense stats and hit your opponent Body press. The Body Press fighting move will hit harder the higher your defense is, so use it a few times before hitting Feraligatr.
