The free Pokémon team builder
This Pokémon team builder is a free, no-sign-up tool for planning a team of six. Add Pokémon and the team builder instantly charts your type weaknesses, resistances and coverage, suggests teammates to patch any holes, and lets you import or export Pokémon Showdown teams. Whether you’re making an in-game team or a competitive VGC 2026 team, the Pokémon team builder turns guesswork into a glance — then roll a random team when you want a fresh challenge.
How to build a balanced team
A strong Pokémon team isn’t six powerful Pokémon — it’s six that cover each other’s weaknesses. The weakness checker above turns that into a glance: scan the Weak column for any attacking type that lights up red across several members. That’s the type a smart opponent will aim at. Fix it by swapping in a Pokémon that resists or is immune to it, then re-check. Aim for no shared weakness hitting three or more of your team, and offensive coverage against the most common types — our full guide to building a Pokémon team walks through every step.

Why use a Pokémon team builder?
A good Pokémon team builder saves you from losing to a weakness you never saw coming. Instead of cross-checking the type chart by hand, this Pokémon team builder reads all six Pokémon at once, flags shared weaknesses, and shows the offensive coverage your team is missing — then suggests the exact teammate to fix it. It’s the fastest free way to turn a rough idea into a balanced team.
Frequently asked questions
How do I build a good Pokémon team?
Start with Pokémon you like, then use the weakness table to spot attacking types that hit several of your team super-effectively. A balanced team usually wants no single type super-effective against 3+ members, and at least one resist or immunity to common offensive types like Fairy, Ground, Fire and Ice.
What does the team weakness checker show?
Each row is one of the 18 attacking types; each column is a team member. Red 2×/4× cells take super-effective damage, green ½/¼ resist, and blue 0 is immune. The "Weak" column counts how many of your six are weak to that type so you can spot shared weaknesses at a glance.
Can I import a Pokémon Showdown team?
Yes — click "Import Showdown", paste your export, and all six Pokémon load with their combined type weaknesses charted instantly.
Can I share or save my team?
"Share link" copies a URL that encodes your exact six Pokémon. Anyone who opens it sees the same team and analysis — no account needed.
