Pokémon GO type chart

Pokémon GO uses the same type effectiveness chart as the main series, however, it uses different multipliers. Instead of doubling/halving an attack's power it is multiplied/divided by 1.6. Immunities do not exist in GO but are treated as a double-resistance.

The type chart is shown below, with the damage multipliers appropriate to GO.

Chart key

  • 0.39 Ineffective (×0.390265)
  • 0.63 Not very effective (×0.625)
  •   Normal (×1)
  • 1.6 Super-effective (×1.6)

With dual types there are two more possible multipliers:

  • 0.24 Very ineffective (×0.244141)
  • 2.56 Double super-effective (×2.56)

Ineffective + SE = Not very effective (×0.63)
Example: a Fighting type move against a Ghost/Ice Pokémon.
NVE + SE = Normal (×1.0)
Example: a Fire type move against a Grass/Water Pokémon.
