Building a strong Pokémon team is not only about choosing your favorite creatures — it’s about covering type weaknesses and ensuring your team can handle any opponent. That’s where a Pokémon Type Coverage Calculator comes in handy. This tool helps trainers instantly check weaknesses, resistances, and counters, making battle strategy much easier.

Pokémon Type Coverage Calculator

Whether you’re preparing for competitive battles, gym challenges, or just playing with friends, type coverage ensures that your team has balanced offense and defense.


What is a Pokémon Type Coverage Calculator?

A Pokémon Type Coverage Calculator analyzes your Pokémon team’s types and shows:

  • Weaknesses (e.g., Water > Fire)
  • Resistances (e.g., Grass < Fire)
  • Immunities (e.g., Ground vs. Electric)
  • Coverage gaps in your offense and defense

With this tool, you can instantly check if your team is vulnerable to specific types and find the best counters to balance your lineup.


📊 Pokémon Type Effectiveness Table

Here’s a simplified type effectiveness chart that shows how multipliers work:

Attack TypeSuper Effective (2×)Not Very Effective (0.5×)No Effect (0×)
FireGrass, Ice, Bug, SteelFire, Water, Rock, Dragon
WaterFire, Ground, RockWater, Grass, Dragon
ElectricWater, FlyingElectric, Grass, DragonGround
GrassWater, Ground, RockFire, Grass, Poison, Flying, Bug, Dragon, Steel
GroundFire, Electric, Poison, Rock, SteelGrass, BugFlying

(This is a shortened table. Full type chart covers all 18 Pokémon types.)


Formula for Type Damage Calculation

The type coverage calculator uses the damage multiplier formula based on attack vs. defense types:

Damage Multiplier=∏(Type Effectiveness)\text{Damage Multiplier} = \prod (\text{Type Effectiveness})Damage Multiplier=∏(Type Effectiveness)

  • If a Pokémon has dual typing, the effectiveness multiplies.
  • Example: A Grass attack vs. a Water/Ground Pokémon = 2× (super effective on Water) × 2× (super effective on Ground) = 4× damage.
