In order to have Grass, Fire and Water replaced with being Starter Types, they’d need to be ones with a reasonable advantage against each other, as in not being immune that is.

Dragon types are also Weak Against Ice types

Thank you for your hard work, this is useful!

The only thing I would like to point out is that in your Rock -> Psychic -> Fighting circle, Rock is incorrect.Β 
Psychic isn't weak to rock.

Might have missed other mistakes, but I'm at home with 40+ Celsius fever, so that one was the one I noticed for now.

I like the Dragon Dragon Dragon one,Β  it's especially fun when thinking of it in the context of starter.

"Hey kid, ya need a pokemon to protect yerself in the grass, which DRAGON do you want ?

Sure each PokΓ©mon has their troubles on the battlefield against certain types; but when they are on the same team, they know to be collaborative!

Bug is only weak to Poison in Generation 1

okay I was thinking of a trio for if I had my own rom hack I chose Sneasel, and Vulpix both being stone evolutions with one evolved form but I can't think of ground type that uses a stone or item to evolve.Β

Gligar, it's ground/flying so it's perfect

you are missing several triangles. such as fighting dark psychic.Β

Hewdraw [2016-03-05 17:51:47 +0000 UTC]

Dark/Fighting/Psychic isn't a triangle, because Dark is immune to Psychic.

gravityuniverse In reply to Hewdraw [2016-08-12 16:43:20 +0000 UTC]

I don't think you get it. Dark beats Psychic, Psychic beats Fighting, Fighting beats Dark.

PiGGmalion In reply to Hewdraw [2016-07-27 01:49:18 +0000 UTC]

tell that to the electric water ground triangle

gravityuniverse In reply to PiGGmalion [2016-08-12 16:44:24 +0000 UTC]

Electric beats water, water beats ground, ground beats electric. It's very simple. Like greninja being weak to chestnaught by strong against Delphox.

The triangle has to work in the other direction too.

EeVeeEe1999 In reply to Enzo959 [2018-03-14 14:11:35 +0000 UTC]

Not really, they don't always have to touch the other type, that's why normal types exist or dual typed starters

doinktonberry [2015-08-16 17:28:44 +0000 UTC]

i think only four of these type triangles actually work in both the "weak to and resisted by" schema.Β 
But schema aside there is still the "Electric ground flying" triangle you forgot.Β 
electric is trumped by ground
ground is trumped by flying
flying is trumped by electric
still a super useful resource though for my fangame. so thanks.

good, and now unite all into one.
Good luck with that!

Type triangles must work, this way T1 is X times against than T2 that is X tmes against T3 that is X times agaist T1.Β 
T1 is Y times weaker than T3 that is Y times weaker than T2 thatis Y times weaker than T1
T1 is Z times stronger against T1.Β T2 is Z times stronger against T2.Β T3 is Z times stronger against T3.
T1 is W times weaker against T1.Β T2 is W times weaker against T2.Β T3 is W times weaker against T3.

The only types triangles possible is the usual grass fire water, and flying, fighting and rock.Β 
But Flying, fighting and rock is while a triangle type, is a different type from grass fire and water, this type of this triangle is 1/2 against itself, while flying, rock, fighting, they are 1x against itself.

Maybe they follow more closely the rock paper scizors scheme

I never understood why they didn't make Regirock a Ground-type (with a different name, obviously).
It would've been a perfect triangle (bottom left).

ArkaDarkArtist [2014-07-17 22:25:07 +0000 UTC]

It is really messed up, since, like most have said, some of these are incorrect. Some others aren't really triangles (Dragon and ghost are just plain dumb jokes) and some aren't perfect triangles, since for example, you can attack an electric pokemon with a water type attack and do normal damage, instead of 1/2.

A lot of these are wrong ... Rock --->Psychic, Rock ---> Ice, Poison ---> Bug?

Rock>ice and poison>bug are correct, rock psychic isn't though.

Well... I know where Pokemon game makers are going now when they need types for starter Pokemon.

askiopop [2014-07-17 16:52:17 +0000 UTC]

Sorry, but as of generation 2, bug takes neutral damage to poison. In the first generation, bug and poison were weak to each other, so Venusaur would be 4x weak to bug. Other than that, this should be a good reference!

glassdragon42 [2014-07-17 16:17:19 +0000 UTC]

I'm, uh. I'm fairly certain Psychic is not weak to Rock.

MrKyurem [2014-07-17 15:09:20 +0000 UTC]

Not real type triangles - as the type triangles work in reverse (Fire is resistant to Grass, Grass is resistant to Water, Water is resistant to Fire)

Only other real one there that doesn't include Fire, Water or Grass there is Rock/Flying/Fighting

This is logic!And useful if we want to do three starter by using the type of the triangle!
