Pokémon Type Chart

Read across a row to see how much damage that attacking type deals to each defending type. Then build a team and check its combined weaknesses.

Using the type chart

Type effectiveness is the backbone of every Pokémon battle. An attack that is super-effective deals double damage (and 4× against a dual-type Pokémon weak to it twice), while a resisted hit deals half (or a quarter). A handful of matchups — like Normal against Ghost — do no damage at all. You don’t need to memorise all 324 cells: build your team in the team builder and it computes every member’s combined weaknesses for you.
