Pokémon Legends: Z-A Type Chart

Legends: Z-A uses the main-series type chart, and real-time battles don’t change any matchup. Megas are the part to watch, since some gain a type and pick up new weaknesses with it. The checker covers all 232 Pokémon in the Lumiose dex.

How types work differently in Legends: Z-A

Moves here run on cooldowns instead of PP and have no accuracy stat, so this section covers only the chart and the Ghost and Dark hits Steel stopped resisting. There are no abilities either, so Levitate doesn’t keep Gastly or Eelektross safe from Ground moves.
