Understanding Type Effectiveness
Type effectiveness is a fundamental mechanic that determines how much damage moves deal based on their type and the defending type(s). Understanding these matchups is crucial for competitive battles and building balanced teams.
Damage Multipliers Explained
- Super Effective (2×): The attacking type is strong against the defending type
- Not Very Effective (0.5×): The attacking type is weak against the defending type
- No Effect (0×): The attacking type cannot damage the defending type at all
- Normal (1×): Standard damage with no type advantage or disadvantage
Dual-Type Interactions
When facing dual-type opponents, multipliers stack multiplicatively. This can result in:
- 4× damage: Super effective against both types (2× × 2×)
- 0.25× damage: Not very effective against both types (0.5× × 0.5×)
- Neutralized effectiveness: Super effective against one type but not very effective against the other (2× × 0.5× = 1×)
