Pokémon Scarlet And Pokémon Violet Cheats and Tips

 

Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Type Weaknesses Cheats

 

A Pokémon’s type (fire, water, or something else) puts it either at an advantage (“it’s super effective!”) or disadvantage (“it’s not very effective…”) in battle against another type. All 18 Pokémon types are subject to this natural order—some of it does feel natural, like fire-types igniting grass-types or water dunking fire—and capable of utilizing their double-damage strengths or half-damage weaknesses. This remains true in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, but becomes a bit more complex with dual-type Pokémon (the Bug/Steel type Scizor, for example, or Electric/Fairy type Dedenne), which take on both its types’ strengths and weaknesses—unless one type has a resistance that cancels out the other’s weakness.

Like most Pokémon games, Scarlet and Violet’s type system adds a quirk in the form of its its Terastallizing mechanic, but it otherwise adheres to the franchises’ usual chart.
