There are 15 major types of Pokémon, and each type has specific strengths and weaknesses. To find out how one type of Pokémon will do in battle against another, refer to the chart below.


Pokémon Types
1: Normal 2: Fire 3: Water 4: Electric 5: Grass 6: Ice
7: Fighting 8: Poison 9: Ground 10: Flying 11: Psychic 12: Bug
13: Rock 14: Ghost 15: Dragon


On the left side of the chart, look for the type that corresponds to your Pokémon. On the top of the chart, look for your opponent's type. From your type, trace a line to the right, and from your opponent's type, trace a line going down.

Look at the symbol in the space where the lines meet. This will tell you whether you have a great chance, a good chance, a poor chance or no chance at all of winning the battle. For example, a Fire-type (#2) will have a great chance again a Bug-type (#12), but a poor chance against a Rock-type (#13). Use this chart to plan your battle strategies.
