Hey Dylan, why am I suddenly in Cerulean City? I don't remember going there.

Edit: I got Cerulean confused with Saffron. My point still stands, though, as I only passed through Cerulean to Route 24.

Totally unrelated to the roleplay at hand (closer to Pokewolf than anything else; since Dylan hasn't made a signup thread, I figured this would be the best place to put it), I did a thing. I imported the Pokemon type chart into a Google doc, then expanded upon that to cover all the interactions with dual-type defenders. I then threw in a few summary statistics and a graph; I'll add some more information soon.

I figured that Dylan could use this to help calculate votes for Pokewolf, if nothing else; I'm also trying to use it to help me piece together a team in Showdown.

Dylan, feel free to use this and link to it when Pokewolf gets rolling (after Cardwolf).

Thanks! I'm still working on it... I think the next step is to figure out a way to have a place where you can type in the types of the pokemon in your party (or Pokewolf game), and it'll tell you concisely which types are supereffective against each of your pokemon.

To use that effectively, I guess you'd have to clone the Google sheet in your own Google drive so you can edit it. I wonder if there's a more efficient way that doesn't require everyone to edit the same file at the same time...

I'm so confused about those dual type charts.

I'm so confused about those dual type charts.
Each cell represents one type pair (save Normal/Normal, Fighting/Fighting, etc, which represent pure Normal, pure Fighting, etc) and gives some information about that type combination.

The leftmost column of charts shows the effectiveness of a given move type against each type combination. The move's type is shown in column A. For instance, cell F31 indicates that Ghost/Poison pokemon are totally immune to Normal-type moves (because the Ghost type is). Cell F91 indicates that Ghost/Poison pokemon are doubly resistant to Poison-type moves, since both Ghost and Poison types are resistant to Poison moves.

The second column of charts just stacks up all the charts in the first column, and counts up all the zeroes, 0.25s, 0.5s, etc. For instance, cell AH31 shows that Ghost/Poison pokemon are totally immune to two different types of moves, which happen to be Normal and Fighting.

For version 1, you'll have to enter the types manually. I'm not looking forward to copying hundreds of pokemon names and types into the Google doc, only to have to reformat them by hand like I did with the basic type chart...

Meh, if it comes to that, I'll write a Matlab script to format it for me. And I'll make sure it can handle many more than six pokemon. At least twenty, as that's about how many players I expect to see in Pokewolf.

Look behind you
I have an alternative solution.

Pokemondb

Just look it up, they have all kinds of type charts, have a very clean andpolished site, everything is easy to find. Way better for looking at pokes than any other site.
