Just like other 笔辞办é尘辞苍 games, 笔辞办é尘辞苍 Go features many different types of 笔辞办é尘辞苍, all with their own strengths and weaknesses. In this 笔辞办é尘辞苍 Go guide, we’ll explain how 笔辞办é尘辞苍 types work, what type strengths and weaknesses are, and provides a table to help you learn what is strong against what.

笔辞办é尘辞苍 Go types, strengths, and weakness

笔辞办é尘辞苍 also has its own set of weaknesses and strengths. For example, bug-type 笔辞办é尘辞苍 are weak against fire-, flying-, and rock-type moves. Bug-type moves are strong against dark-, grass-, and psychic-type moves. Fire-, flying-, and rock-type moves will do double damage against a bug-type, like Caterpie.

Some 笔辞办é尘辞苍 have two types, which means they can have a doubled weakness or have their strength and weaknesses cancel out to just take normal damage. Rayquaza, a dragon- and flying-type, takes four times the damage from ice-type moves. On the flip side, Shuckle, a rock- and bug-type, takes normal damage from fire-type moves, since rock-type is strong against fire-type.

Strengths and weaknesses also aren’t necessarily just opposites of each other. Though fire-type move deal less damage to water-type 笔辞办é尘辞苍 and water-type moves do doubled damage against fire-type 笔辞办é尘辞苍, this isn’t the case with every type. For example, fighting-type moves are strong against normal-types, but normal-types just do regular damage against fighting-types, rather than do reduced damage.

Knowing what 笔辞办é尘辞苍’s strengths and weaknesses are is an important aspect of raiding and battling. To do the most damage you can, you should make sure that your 笔辞办é尘辞苍’s moves are strong against what it’s battling.

Memorizing all of that can get confusing, so here’s a chart to help you out.
