Alolan Rattata Weakness

Alolan Rattata's Dark/Normal typing leaves it vulnerable to Fighting, Bug, and Fairy. Fighting hits land at 4x, so they're the biggest threat. It shrugs off Psychic and Ghost-type attacks completely. Thick Fat reduces Fire/Ice damage, further improving the defensive spread.
