In the TCG, does type changing affect weakness and resistance?

Sep. 20, 2018

So, I have this Arceus (?) card from the mythical Pokemon give away, and I want to know if, when you use type switch (one of its moves. Until the turn after it was used, Arceus is any type of the player’s choosing) does weakness and resistance change? Ex: If if switch Arceus to Fighting Type, do psychic moves do x2 damage?

ThisArceus, I presume.

No, It’s Weakness doesn’t change, because the only thing the Move changes is Arceus’s Type, not it’s Weakness. Types and Weaknesses/Resistances are independent from one another in the TCG; if one changes the other doesn’tunless stated otherwise.

Therefore, that Arceus’s weakness should be Fighting no matter what type it is.
