Pokemon team type coverage and weaknesses
The analysis combines each member’s defensive typing. Counts show how many team members are weak to or resist each attacking type.

Team resistances

This is a fast defensive type check, not a competitive damage calculator. Abilities, moves, Tera Types, items, stats, formats, and generation-specific mechanics can change real matchups.
How it works
How to use this Pokemon team planner
Choose your core Pokemon
Add the starter, favorite, or required challenge Pokemon you already know you want to use.
Review shared weaknesses
Look for attacking types that threaten two or more members, especially when the team lacks a resistance or immunity.
Fill the remaining roles
Add complementary Pokemon, then recheck the matrix and copy the party when the balance suits your playthrough.
Planning guide
What makes a useful Pokemon party plan?
A balanced type chart is not the only goal, but it is a quick way to catch avoidable defensive problems before you spend time training a team.
Separate planning from random generation
Use this page when you want to choose specific Pokemon and evaluate the result. Use the random team generator when the surprise itself is the goal.
Watch concentrated weaknesses
One weakness is normal. Three or four members sharing the same weakness can make a route, Gym, raid, or battle format much harder.
Consider roles after typing
Once the chart looks reasonable, review speed, bulk, physical versus special damage, moves, abilities, and the rules of your chosen game or format.
Frequently asked questions
Pokemon Team Planner FAQ
Is this a competitive Pokemon team builder?
It is a lightweight party planner and defensive type checker. It does not calculate movesets, EVs, IVs, speed tiers, damage, abilities, items, or format legality.
Can I use fewer than six Pokemon?
Yes. The planner updates after every addition, so it works for solo challenges, draft cores, partial parties, and full six-Pokemon teams.
Why does a Pokemon name sometimes fail?
The tool uses PokeAPI identifiers. Standard English species names and National Dex numbers work best; some alternate forms use a special hyphenated API name.
How is this different from the random Pokemon team generator?
This planner lets you deliberately select each member and inspect team-wide typing. The random generator creates surprise teams from generation and type filters.
