Which type is super-effective against the most type combinations?

Nov. 11, 2021

I’m looking to see what single attacking type deals super-effective damage to the highest number of defending dual-types, unused combos included. Additionally, I’d like to know which type, if it’s not the same, is super-effective against the highest number of Pokémon currently in the national dex, Regional Variants, Megas, and newly-revealed Pokémon from Legends included.

Information has been taken from thePokemon DB dual-type chartand I have used some extensive Excel magic to calculate my results. Note that this chart lists type double-ups twice (e.g. Fire/Normal and Normal/Fire) so they have been filtered out accordingly.

So the most offensively super-effective type acrossall possible type combinationsis theGround-type, with 55 super-effective matches! Here is the whole list for reference:

And acrossonly the used type combinations, againGround-typeis the winner:

This was fun to calculate!Hope I helped. :)
