For those of you who are red/green color blind (or those who have burned out their retinas from looking at either the normal layout-colors or the Type chart table), we have put in values as well. The easy-interpreter key is as follows:
1 | Standard - No change to damage |
2 | Super Effective - For each match of this, damage is multiplied by 2 |
/2 | It's not very effective - For each match of this, damage is multiplied by 0.5 |
0 | No effect - For any match of this, damage for the attack = 0 |
Aside from affecting damage, the type(s) of a pokemon do play into another effect determination. These immunities are as follows:
Poison - Poison-type pokemon can never be poisoned.
Ground - Ground-type pokemon are immune to all Electric-type attacks, including ones that do not do damage. Since Thunder Wave is the only non-damaging Electric attack, it means that a Ground-type pokemon's immunity extends to that attack as well.
Steel - Steel-type pokemon are immune to all Poison-type attacks, including ones that do not do damage. They may still be poisoned, if the attack that does it is not a Posion-type attack. The only attack capable of that in G/S/C is Twineedle.
Fire - Fire-type pokemon can not be burned by Fire-type attacks. They can still be burned by a non Fire-type attack that causes a pokemon to be Burned. The only attack capable of that in G/S/C is Tri Attack.
Grass - Grass-type pokemon can not be affected by the move Leech Seed. The move will always miss them.
Ice - Ice-type pokemon can not be frozen by Ice-type attacks. They can still be frozen by a non Ice-type attack that causes a pokemon to be frozen. The only attack capable of that in G/S/C is Tri Attack.
