Double-Type Attack Combos: Brute-Force Counts

[Dragontamer]

I began the double-attack combos to help me write a hail-team guide, particularly to find the best double-attack combos that can be made with Blizzard. But I think they'll be useful to everyone, so here they are.

Introduction

There are 17 types in Pokemon. Assuming every type is avaliable, then there are choose(17, 2) + 17 combinations of defensive types (or numerically, 153 types. 136 of them are combos with no repeats, + 17 of the pure types). Many of these don't exist, but for simplicity's sake, I included fake types like Normal / Ghost into this program. I hope that it doesn't change the result too dramatically.

There are 136 double-attack combinations in the game (no point in having 2 ghost attacks). This list was generated systematically. First there is Normal / Fire. Then there is Normal / Electric. Then there is... all the way down to Steel / Dark.

Simple Super Effectives

That said, here is the first chart, the number of single-types that are hit super-effective. Higher, the better.

This reads that Normal / Poison hits 1 type super-effective. Ice / Fighting and Ice / Ground hit 9 types super effective. Obviously, the more, the better.

Now instead of just the 17 pure types, here is a generated list of how these guys perform against the 153 possible types (including fake types) The higher, the better.

86 -- Ground Bug 
87 -- Ice Fighting 
88 -- Fighting Rock 
94 -- Fire Ground 
96 -- Ground Rock 
97 -- Ground Flying 
100 -- Ice Ground

This means that Normal / Poison hits 12 types super-effective... Grass Bug/Grass, Grass/Normal, Grass/Electric, Dark/Grass, Fighting/Grass,Dragon/Grass, Grass/Water, Psychic/Grass, Ice/Grass, Grass/Fire, Flying/Grass.

Ice Ground hits 100 types super-effective. I will not list them here... half of them are fake anyway >_>

I hope that even though the above list is obviously flawed, it could be of use to someone.

Number of resists / immunities

This is probably the one that most people would like. Grass / Fighting hits 7 types super-effective, but is resisted by Flying (aka, Gyarados). Which is bad. This list also includes fakes like Ghost / Normal pokemon, so yes, it is flawed, but I hope it would be useful.

The lower the better. For the top few, I listed the few resists that they have...

0 -- Fire Dragon (Heatran)
1 -- Ground Dragon (Skarm, Bronzong)
1 -- Fighting Dragon (Steel / Ghost)
1 -- Fighting Ghost (Normal / Ghost)
2 -- Ground Rock (Breloom, Torterra, Bronzong, Flygon)
2 -- Water Dragon (Empoleon, Steel / Grass)
2 -- Ice Ground (Surskit, [URL="http://72.232.200.43/forums/showthread.php?t=35326"]Scylant[/URL], Bronzong)

So Fire / Dragon has no resists at all, period (except heatran to resists due to its ability). The little "1" besides Ground / Dragon might explain why Garchomp is so friggen broken. Only Steel / Flying resists ground / dragon, and Skarm is very easily taken care of with Flamethrower.

Fighting / Ghost deserves a mention. The single resist / immunity that was picked up with the program was obviously... Normal / Ghost. This pokemon does not exist in the game...

Ice / Ground is one that I have yet to really see abuse of, and is probably underrated right now. A surprising amount of pokemon can use this combo. With only Water / Bug (lol Surskit) and Ice / Bug (lol Scylant) resisting this combo and Levitate Bronzong, while it hits 100 type-combos super effective and 9 pure-types super-effective... it is on the top of every list that I've generated. Hell, Ice/ Ground beats bolt/beam in every generated chart. Ahem, enter Mamoswine, Earthquake / Blizzard Abomasnow, Ice Beam / Earthquake T-Tar...

Well, thats that. Discuss?

 

[astrohawke]

This is very interesting to see. A small problem though is that abilities have not been taken into account. One thing that immediately caught my attention was that dragon/fire has no resists because heatran does resist this due to flash fire.

Also surprising to see that boltbeam is not so high on the list of good attacking combos but I suppose a lot of theoretical types resist it?

 

[Pyong]

I liked this guide a lot, and it conviced me how much mamoswine deseves a place in OU, and will help me to chose my atacks combination.
Keep the good work, andi am looking foward the hail guide :D

 

[Dragontamer]

2 Theoretical types resist bolt/beam. Electric / Fire, and Electric Ice. Bolt/Beam is practically only resisted by 2 pokemon, Lanturn and Magnezone.

Bolt / Beam is great not only because it has few resists (lanturn / magnezone), but also because you have 100% accurate 95 base power attacks with no drawbacks. Not even fire / dragon can say that.

 

[Hyra]

Very nice. I knew Ice/Ground was good... but that good? Wow. Also, lol Normal Poison. Even worse because Ghost naturally resists Poison.

Also, can you account for abilities? Because Heatran likes his FlameClaw resist.

Finally, Stab accounts for a lot. Ice Beam / EQ TTar isn't very good, because he has Stab on neither. Now, DD/Crunch/Ice Beam/EQ TTar is good.

Also, this list is a godsend for the Create a Pokemon crew. Dragon/Fight is countered by Ghost/Steel. But still, Ghost/Steel is ungodly defensively. Maybe you should make a defense counter part. I wonder if Ice or Normal would be a worse type defensively.

 

[Deco]

Quite an interesting list. It would be better, though, if you would only do the existing types, even better if you would include abilities, even better if you would multiply those types with the number of times they exist (x1 for Rock/Dark, x2 for Dark/Ghost, x58 for pure Normal, etc), and even better if you would make a weighted list for how often the Pokemon is used (Water/Flying would get a lot higher that way, for example, but Water/Bug would be practically nonexistant).

Nevertheless, it's a good start.

Edit: Shedinja also resists BoltBeam due to its ability.

 

[DemonOfWrath]

Very interesting to know (ouch to any future Normal/Poison pokemon), it'll make picking attack combos easier. However, this could be more useful if a list was made just including currently existing types (while it's interesting to know Ghost/Fighting is resisted only by Normal/Ghost it's not something you'll worry about when making a team as of D/P) and perhaps counting existing type/ability combos as a seperate combo (Shedinja needs some love here).

 

[SMZ]

Nice guide and list, I also thought about Fighting/Ghost before, and like you said only type combo that can resist it is Normal/Ghost, but it's not there .. unless they make it in the future.

The Ground/Ice combo is interesting, especially for Mamoswine, since he has both of them for STAB.

 

[Deucalion2]

Awesome. Would it be possible to do the SE one for a combination of 4 types? So it would be easier to see which moves to be placed on a lead LOrber.

 

[eric the espeon]

very very nice

one thing

2 -- Ground Rock (Breloom, Torterra)

if you acount for abilitys then bronzong also resists this.

its interesting that boltbeam is beaten in the first one by water/ice and in the second by rock steel. the 3rd is probably the most useful.

do you think it would be possible to do a weighted list with only existing types, and with more commonly used types counting for more? or would that take years to make? anyway this is great.

 

[RaikouLover]

and lets not forget flygon and claydol... levitate is useful

 

[Aldaron]

This is great for a theoretical look at battling.

I know this would probably be overly meticulous, but the next, probably obvious, step is to use the usage statistics from Shoddy and plug say the top 80 most used and see what combo is SE the most times.

This general information is still great, however.

Either Ice/Ground or Fight/RockorDarkorGhost. Lots of 4x ice weaks, a lot of EQ weaks make Ice Ground my bet. Fighting is an awesome type, Dark/Ghost hit the Bulky Psychic and Ghosts used to wall, while Rock hits all Fliers in the game (there are a lot appearantly). Or maybe Fire/Dragon because of Steel walls and Dragon types.

 

[joshua]

Thanks for making this guide, I've been wanting to see one of these for a while.

 

[Yoshipal13]

Very cool, I've been looking for some data like this. Thanks.

 

[Jediment]

Hm. I'd actually been planning to do some testing with Ground/Flying, but now I see that it's quite effective. Good research. Did you write an algorithm to generate these lists automatically?

 

[Jiggy-Ninja]

Damn you dude, I hate you. You took my idea.

Excellent information. I was a bit surprised to see BoltBeam were it was on the SE chart, but it's still very high on the resistence one.

Even better idea. adapt X-Act's damage algorithm and apply it to type combos like this.

[Phizzlax]

This is a nice chart, thanks. I'm not that surprised by Boltbeam not hitting so hard on the SE list, it really doesn't cover a huge list of types, it's more well known for one shotting threats with double weaknesses (Gyara, Dragons) and not being resisted by much (Magnezone, Lanturn).

I was planning on making a similar chart, based entirely on the top 50-75 most used Pokemon on Shoddy.

Also, I personally fell in love with Ice/Ground as an attack combination a few months ago, whenever available I've taken advantage of it. Even my Regigigas has EQ/Ice Punch, overlooking Return to have them.

 

[Macho Machamp]

Thanks for making this! It helps a lot when deciding on which moves to use. It would be cool if there was a chart that showed the types hit by 3 attack combinations; maybe even 4!

 

[Aeroblacktyl]

No Shedinja ?

At first I thought it was no traits involved, but with Lanturn listed as a Bolt/Beam

 

[Dragontamer]

No Shedinja ?

At first I thought it was no traits involved, but with Lanturn listed as a Bolt/Beam

Those I added manually... Shedinja pretty much hits everything though... it'd be redundant to really note him.
