Tera Blast, Shell Side Arm and Tera Starstorm do not activate Abilities that would activate after being hit by a move in the Physical Category and always act as moves in the Special category.
This causes those moves to always activate moves that use move.category === MoveCategory.SPECIAL, such as Ice Scales and Flare Boost, and never activate Abilities that use move.category === MoveCategory.PHYSICAL` such as Ice Face and Weak Armor.
Reproduction
Start with a Neutral Nature Physical-Leaning Pokemon, such as Spearow or Bagon
-Change Opp Ability to Ice Scales and compare damage pre-Gastro Acid
