TypeMatch is a fast, offline reference for Pokémon type match-ups. Pick any of the 18 types and get the full picture immediately: • Super effective — what this type hits for double damage • Weaknesses — what hits this type for double damage • Resistances — what this type takes half damage from • Immunities — what does nothing to it at all Tap any type in the results to jump straight to its own breakdown, so you can follow a chain of match-ups without going back to the grid. BUILT FOR SPEED No loading spinners, no sign-in, no network required. The complete type chart ships inside the app, so it works anywhere — no reception needed. NO ADS AND NO TRACKING TypeMatch collects nothing. There is no analytics SDK, no advertising, no account, and the app makes no network requests at all. Nothing you do in it leaves your device. CLEAR AT A GLANCE Every type is color-coded and labeled, with the four matchup categories always in the same order, so you learn where to look instead of reading every time. TypeMatch is an unofficial fan-made reference tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed, sponsored, or approved by Nintendo, Creatures Inc., GAME FREAK inc., or The Pokémon Company. Pokémon and all related names are trademarks of their respective owners.
