What are Pokemon Types?
Pokemon Types are the core battles in Pokemon Go. Certain types are assigned to all Pokemon creatures and their moves. Each type has both strengths and weaknesses in both attack and defence. Knowing the type matchups is necessary so that each of your Pokemon moves causes maximum damage. A player should also know what their Pokemon is weak against which can keep the rivals from nocking them out.

This chart is a very handy chart that will let the player know which moves to use and which ones to be avoided. The majority of the type chart has remained the same but few changes have happened. Dark and Steel-type were added in generation two. While in generation 6 fairy type was added.
