{{incomplete|In need of update. Type effectiveness is not present in Ultimate. This can be seen in https://youtu.be/hVxwuVcjCGI, where Charizard's Neutral Aerial does 9.5% damage to both Squirtle and Ivysaur. We'd like to see the page updated to incorporate this information. Many thanks!}} | |||

In the {{uv|Pokémon}} series, each Pokémon has one or two {{s|bulbapedia|type}}s, and each attack has one type. Whenever an attack hits a Pokémon, the damage dealt is altered by any weaknesses or resistances caused by the type combination. For example, a Water attack will deal double damage to a Fire or Rock Pokémon, while a Grass attack will deal half damage to a Fire-type, and an Electric attack will have no effect on a Ground-type Pokémon. | In the ''{{uv|Pokémon}}'' series, each Pokémon has one or two {{s|bulbapedia|type}}s, and each attack has one type.

If all type interactions were carried over into ''Brawl'', Pokémon would take altered damage from several other attack types; such as [[freezing]] attacks being effective on Ivysaur. ''Brawl'' also only applies any sort of type effectiveness to Pokémon summoned by Pokémon Trainer; other playable Pokémon are not affected in any way. | ||
