Thanks for reading, first of all. To address your points:

It's important to remember that Type: Null, while meant to combat UBs, was in fact a failure according to Aether. Whether Silvally fixes that is rather ambiguous; looking at the stats between the two, only speed increases. That may indicate justification for scaling, perhaps, but personally, I would require an actual encounter between Silvally and Pheromosa to include that. As far as magic goes, I see no reason to believe Nosferatu and other magic would do less damage than normal. If the "Types" of the magic are the issue, well, I don't believe FE magic should be given Pokemon types to begin with. They just don't all lend themselves well to the system, such as Odin's Tiger Spirit.

But, let's assume the magic does have Pokemon-systematic types. Mjolnir still sweeps the floor with Gladion's team; the only one that can tank it is Silvally with Grass Memory. Nosferatu would be usable on all but Porygon, and Tiger Spirit should hit everyone anyway.
