Pokémon Champions Type Chart
The complete 18-type effectiveness chart. Champions uses the standard modern type chart. Check it before you build coverage, so you don't click a move into a type that resists it.

How to use it
In doubles you pick which foe each move hits, so knowing the chart cold means you never waste a turn. Two Pokémon stack their types, so effects multiply: a Bug/Steel takes 4× from Fire, while a Water/Ground is only hit for ¼×by Fire. When you build a team, aim for two or three attacking types that cover each other's resists so nothing walls your whole side.
Immunities matter most in doubles. Clicking a move that does 0 wastes the turn for both your Pokémon. Ground does nothing to Flying, Electric nothing to Ground, Normal/Fighting nothing to Ghost, and Dragon nothing to Fairy. Some abilities add immunities too (Levitate, Lightning Rod, Flash Fire).
