Weaknesses and resistances

The current formula softens single-type factors to 1.2, 0.85 and 0.7, multiplies against both defender types, then clamps the product to 0.65–1.35. It does not use the main-series Pokémon multipliers.

Where we would draft Geodude

Editorial opinion. Method: role, base HP, attack shape and the mode objective, without match telemetry or a win-rate model.

Geodude has a lob basic attack with 300 range units and a 2.1-second reload, so its useful engagement window should be judged from those parameters rather than its rarity. Its lob attack is a reason to look for covered objective approaches, while avoiding an exposed straight-line damage trade.

water is a particular type risk for Geodude at 1.35× incoming damage. electric is reduced to 0.7×, but that does not guarantee a favorable duel because supers and kit choices differ.

Sources and snapshot limits

Last checked 2026-10-29. All species parameters come from one publisher: the official game. Recalculating multiple files is reproducibility, not independent confirmation. Launch roster counts differ: the same author’s itch.io listing says 490, while this roster builds 492 families / 934 dex rows. These are different published figures, not an averaged total.

Questions
