Yeah Rock has a ton of weaknesses to really common types, tied with Grass for the most weaknesses of any type. Because of this it’s really common for dual typings featuring Rock to have at least one 4x weakness because the probability of having an overlap is so high. It’s got its merits though. Good offensive coverage STAB coverage, and it benefits a lot from sandstorms (getting a Sp.Def boost is really really good because most Rock types have great physical bulk, so the boost gives them very well-rounded defenses). STAB Rock Slide is really nice as well, and it has a fair number of useful resistances to make up for its weaknesses. Fire and Flying-types are pretty common so countering them is always useful.

The top 5 best types for combinations, overall, are ground, thanks to 5 of its type combos being in the top ten, fairy, best offensive, ghost, for having the most immunities, and can hit steel types, water, for being all around balanced and is able to hit steel, which most types usually can not, and steel for being the best defensive, as for the 5 worst types, we have the two worst types, bug, which does better than ice, thanks to some higher placements for a few, and ice, which is the 2nd worst due to low placements, but at they have on in the top ten, grass, which has more higher placements than the other types, and but is held back due to lower placements, psychic, which gets a head a good bit thanks to having three in a, but none in s, and rock, which is the worst overall, thanks to having most of the combos in the lower tiers, with none in s or a, which allows bug, grass, and ice to get ahead of them.

Imagine A Legendary Pokemon with an Ice/Fighting type. Its lore is gonna be like Diancie. It will be like a mutated creature that exists once in while. It is a one of kind creature of an existing pokemon that lives in the mountains, managing to survive the harsh weather and cold. Once in a while, a Pokemon of their species will be chosen and will mutate (more like evolve), to become their chosen protector. It wards off evil doers that wants to capture their rare species by manipulating the unwelcoming blizzards. Its typing would be Ice/Fighting. It is a frail but fast special attacker (Greninja or Calyrex-Shadow). It's Signature ability would be called Icy Aura, which is the opposite of Speed Boost with a bonus. Every 2 turns, Pokemons including allies, will have their speed stat lowered by 1 stage. If contact moves were done against Pokemon with this ability, their speed stat is lowered by 2 stages. It's Signature move would be called "Vacuum Chill" a Fighting type special move with 90 base power and 100% accuracy. Its effects is that it has a 15% of Freezing the target. It has access to Earth Power and Freeze Dry. And the Set would be like Vacuum Chill Freeze Dry Earth Power Flash Cannon I just wanna cry if I ever face that kind of pokemon.

Not surprising since Birds and fish are the majority of the Animals on this planet. Since Pokemon are usually inspired by existing animals it's a bit insane that both of them just got one standard type, meaning you basically fit 90% of Animals in two types. You can find every type in a fish since there are so many of them. Same with Birds. Psychic is also not surprising since it's basically just a short for "has magical abilitys" which is obviously well liked in Fantasy games and a very huge category. You can also just add that to basically anything. Those three typings in this spot do make perfect sense.

I actually used a mathematical concept called "Pareto Optimization" to find what I would consider to be the best type combinations Basically, it measures two characteristics, and if another combination can improve one without harming another, what you have is NOT a Pareto Optimal configuration. Anything where this does apply, and any gain to one characteristic comes at a cost to the other measured characteristic, is a Pareto Optimal Configuration. The two characteristics I measured were the number of resistances (counting doubles and immunities as one), and number of types hit for super-effective damage. If any type combination had the same number of resistances as another but hit more types super-effectively, the other was removed from the list, and vice-versa. After running through all the combinations I discovered there were only 9 Pareto Optimal Type Combinations (combos where no other type simultaneously resisted as much or more and hit as much or more): Ice/Fighting (3 resistances, hits 9) Fire/Ground (6 resistances, hits 8) Fighting/Rock (6 resistances, hits 8) Ground/Rock (6 resistances, hits 8) Ground/Fairy (6 resistances, hits 8) Ground/Steel (10 resistances, hits 7) Steel/Fairy (11 resistances, hits 6) Electric/Steel (12 resistances, hits 5) Ghost/Steel (12 resistances, hits 5) Using number of weaknesses as a tiebreaker (and, failing that, number of types that resist both), I brought it to five: Ice/Fighting Fire/Ground (had the fewest weaknesses of the 6/8s) Ground/Steel Steel/Fairy Ghost/Steel (Electric/Steel couldn't hit electric types, while nothing resists both steel and ghost) I decided to find the best by adding up resistances and hits and dividing by weaknesses, and got the following: Ice/Fighting: 2 Fire/Ground: 4.67 Ground/Steel: 4.25 Steel/Fairy: 8.5 Ghost/Steel: 4.25 By this metric, Steel/Fairy is mathematically the best type combination in the game. (For anyone curious, doing the same for single types yields only four Pareto Optimal single types: Fire, Steel, Fighting, and Ground, though Fighting is resisted by more types than Ground)

Mono Electric is one of the worst types in the game. They invariably have garbage coverage and HAD TO rely on Hidden Power to not lose to any of the thousands of Ground-types littering higher level play. Now Hidden Power is gone, and mono-Electric is dookie. Mono Steel is pretty garbage offensively, but if it has good support moves it's great.

- Grass/Poison has 4 decently common weaknesses with 5 very useful resistances. The two hit 5 types super effective, but struggle against Poison and Steel types. Notably, a Grass/Poison Pokemon is a Poison-type that isn't weak to Ground, and being a Grass-type that isn't weak to Poison or Bug is something interesting. - Fire/Dark has 6 good resistances and 1 immunity with only 4 weaknesses, albeit common ones. The two hit every individual type in the game at least neutrally, with 6 types being hit super effectively. Fire/Dark crucially gives you a Dark-type that isn't weak to Fairy (or Bug for that matter).

From a method standpoint, I’m curious whether you thought about these types in a vacuum or in a VGC context. For example, for Grass/Fairy you said that the good resistances were offset by a 4x to Poison, but earlier you pointed out that poison types are mostly valued for their defenses rather than their offense. When building a move pool for a poison type in VGC, most players focus on survivability over damage and don’t tend to bring many offensive Poison STAB moves (from what I’ve seen, I could be wrong). So you could make an argument that resisting Dark, Ground, and Water especially is more important than a 4x weakness to a type rarely used offensively. But also, that’s pretty deep to go when you have over 150 type combinations to consider 😅

I'm a little surprised that Normal/Fighting didn't get called our for being the *only* type combination that a single type (Ghost) is completely immune to on its own.

My favorite type combination is Psychic/Fairy. Two extremely good types, immunity to the second-best type in the game, Fairy chances out the Bug and Dark weaknesses, and while it can’t hit Steel for STAB super effective damage, all the Pokémon with this type combo can learn moves to get around that. I believe it’ll end up somewhere in the C tier. Edit: Wow, Psychic/Fairy got #70! That’s way better than I thought!

I have a solid typing team built up - Drapion Scizor Seismitoad Porygon-Z Emolga Mimikyu This team has only 8 weaknesses with no weakness overlap among them (2 of them 4x though), with 9 or 10 (depending on water absorb) immunities and 32 resistances (2 of them 4x resist). Offensively, with STAB moves only (or in Porygon's case, STAB plus ice beam), only 5 resists (Scizor, Fire and Steel; Seismitoad, Grass; Porygon-Z, Steel; and Emolga, Electric). Between them all, 30 types are hit for super-effective and the remaining are neutral. And that's only 2 moves per Pokemon. Add one coverage move each and there are no resistances remaining. So that's a very strong, no type overlap, highly defensive and solid offensive typed team. Other Pokemon with the same typing can be used but coverage moves and general movepool may vary.

I will strongly disagree with the rankings of flying/steel and fire/dark. Flying/steel is arguably the best defensive type in the game, with one less resist than fairy/steel for an added double resist, and an immunity to ground instead of a weakness (vs an electrik weakness). Fire/Dark on the other hand has four weaknesses, all of them extremely common and spammed in most formats. Sure it's got very useful resistances and immunity, but without intimidate and incineroar's bulk I don't think the type is top 20.
