Version 1.1
Finish Update: May 20 at 9:26pm, Pacific Time.
This guide is already up on Gamefaqs and Gamespot. I am sure you have
all seen many mistakes up in this FAQ. Sorry, it was done rapidly and I
was bored at the end of writing this FAQ. Now that I have relaxed, I
corrected a lot of faults for a more pleasant lecture. There is still
some errors but the biggest ones are corrected thank god!! I have
holidays this week so I will work on the next update, it should be up
next week. Thank you everyone who are reading this FAQ.
Version 2.1
Finish Update: June 7 at 6:24pm, Pacific Time.
Well I started my second part of the FAQ. I was busy, sorry. I
had exams to prepare which is more important than this FAQ. Anyway, I
manage to finish my second update. I finish up to defense stats. I do
not know if I will have time to update it until the end of June. If I
can I will do it, if I cannot than it will go to September until I get
back to school because within two weeks I cannot do much. I am going
on vacations for the summer holidays and I will not have a computer to
work on every day. Anyway, I hope you like this guide. PS. If you could
rate my guide I would be thankful I just have three ratings. Thank you!
Version 2.2
Finish Update: June 17 at 6:41pm, Pacific Time.
I've read little parts of my guide and remarked that some sentences did
not make sense. I also found mistakes again. I decided to sacrifice the
rest of the second part to correct and replace sentences. I don't know
if I will have the time to add the version 2.3 for the rest of the
second part. Anyway, I'm sure you'll like this new update. If I manage
to have time I will but I have an Exam on Monday. So I won't have time
to work on FAQ this weekend. In addition, I am going to finish school
so I am going to have a couple of days drunk. Anyway, I am sure I will
not have time to update it and this summer I am going on vacation so
I'm pretty the next update won't be until September. Anyway, I am
saying hello to everyone who reads this Guide.
Version 2.3
Finish Update: June 21 at 1:18pm, Pacific Time.
You should all thank Theemikester for this quick update. He gave me the
kick in the butt to continue this guide before September. All my
projects have been pushed one week farther. This is maybe the second
biggest reason why I've updated this so soon. Anyway, I've put in every
attack in the game. Also finished the second part of the FAQ. I'll try
and work on the third and final part before I go on vacation. Anyway,
Hello everybody and have a nice summer. I've also changed the codes of
every part of the FAQ.
*TAKE IN NOTE*
From now on, you have to enter everything in the brackets by pushing
ctrl + f to go in the right place. That means, the brackets and the
letters. I've also made a battle chart, it will ease you greatly in your
quest. There is a lot of information in this FAQ. So, maybe you can find
wrong or missing information. If you find some, please contact me
immediately at this email:
"mariorpg456@gmail.com"
Version 3.1
Finish Update: September 4 at 16:47pm, Pacific Time.
Well I've Finished pretty much the Faq. The Third part is completed and
also the Top Twenty. You'll maybe notice that things were changed.
First, the moves were brought at the end of the FAQ due to some
complaints. Also that my Faq is finish. It has taken about 50 - 60
hours to write it all and this is excluding the time that I've been
playing pokemons on my GB. Anyway I will always find something to fix
or to include in my FAQ. So farewell everybody and have fun!
***********************************************************************
*Introduction - [INTRODUCTION]*
***********************************************************************
First, I created this guide to help people. It will help everyone
who has trouble with type advantage and disadvantage. I will explain
everything in this guide from A to Z by giving you the advantages and
disadvantage of a type. I will also give you the best of type for every
category of pokemon.  So here it is the pokemon type guide, I hope this
will help people. If you have any questions regarding pokemon silver,
gold or crystal, please contact me via email, "mariorpg456@gmail.com".
If I do not know the answer to your question then I make a promise to
find it for you by searching the net. If I really can't find it then
it, it means that it does not exist.

*Normal - [NORMAL]*
***********************************************************************
1. Brief Description: Normal is the most common type in the game.
Although it is common, it does not mean there are lots of great pokemon
that belongs to the type. Surprisingly this type is home to very few
great pokemons. If you are going to raise one, I strongly suggest to buy
TMs because there is no really big normal attack except Horn Drill,
Hyper Beam and maybe Mean Look. Mean Look is great for capturing
pokemon. Hyper Beam has a power of 150 but you lose a turn. Horn Drill
if hits, causes an instant KO. Still then, it has a 30% success, which
is very low. In addition, not every normal pokemons have these powerful
attacks. Not really the best type but you could at least make room for a
good Tauros or Porygon 2. Do not forget to teach them some good TMs or
else they are not even worth the time you will put into them.
2. Type Advantage - Disadvantage
Normal
Normal....Nothing
Fire......Nothing
Water.....Nothing
Electric..Nothing
Grass.....Nothing
Ice.......Nothing
Fighting..Nothing
Poison....Nothing
Ground....Nothing
Flying....Nothing
Psychic...Nothing
Bug.......Nothing
Rock......Weak
Ghost.....Can't Hit
Dragon....Nothing
Dark......Nothing
Steel.....Weak
Best of Type:
1) Porygon 2 - Has good stats. He can also learn the best special attack
in the game, Zap Cannon.
2) Snorlax - Snorlax has decent stats and learns rest and snore which
make a nice combo. At higher levels, he will learn Hyper beam. If you
teach him good TMs he can be a very powerful pokemon.
3) Tauros - Tauros stats are not bad, but not the best ones. He will
learn Rest at level 34 and can also be taught Snore with TMs. Teach him
varied type TMs and he should be a very powerful element in your party.
4) Ursaring - Just a big and strong pokemon. I don't really like the
idea of training this pokemon, because he will be leftover in your party
in a near future if you train him up. If you want it so bad then go for
it.
Well this is pretty well the normal type. A lot of pokemon, with for
most of them very bad stats. Like in every type, some are better than
other and you will have to stick with them. If you can't trade with a
friend your Porygon (with upgrade) then stick with the older generation,
Snorlax or Tauros. If you are going to raise other normal pokemon then
I suggest to teach them TMs and boost their stats with calcium, zinc,
protein, etc. Everything that can bring their stat up, in big.

So here are the normal type pokemon, as you can see there is a hole
bunch of them. So, have fun catching and trading all these pokemons.
***********************************************************************
*Fire - [FIRE]*
***********************************************************************
1. Brief Description: Now it's the turn of my favorite type, the fire
pokemons. This type has some fine pokemons but at the opposite of the
normal type, they aren't as common. I strongly suggest to leave
Cyndaquil in its pokeball because he isn't the best choice when it
comes to the starters. I suggest you Chikorita even if you'll get
problems starting with it. Your first gym is flyers but if you've
trained it well then you shouldn't get to much problems. Let us get
back to fire pokemons. With Fire blast and Sacred Fire, these pokemons
are necessary on your party. Also fire pokemon that have Sunny Day and
a strong Fire attack can easily beat the crap out of a water pokemon in
two or three rounds.
2. Type Advantage - Disadvantage
Fire
Normal....Nothing
Fire......Weak
Water.....Weak
Electric..Nothing
Grass.....Strong
Ice.......Strong
Fighting..Nothing
Poison....Nothing
Ground....Nothing
Flying....Nothing
Psychic...Nothing
Bug.......Strong
Rock......Weak
Ghost.....Nothing
Dragon....Weak
Dark......Nothing
Steel.....Strong
3. Best of Type:
1) Entei - A very powerful pokemon that gain good stats as well as good
attacks. Only at high levels though. He'll learn Fire Blast at level
71 (which is pretty high). You can always teach him Fire Blast with
TMs if you can't wait until you get a good fire attack.
2) Arcanine - The best Pokemon of Red/Blue/Yellow. The only little
thing that cost him the first place is that he doesn't learn Fire Blast,
Although you can teach him Fire Blast with TMs, Entei has better stats
then Arcanine. Entei is much harder to catch than a Growlithe though
which isn't in the favor of Entei. Arcanines stats compared to Enteis
are almost identical but legendary pokemons are in pretty much every
case better than common pokemons.
3) Ho-oh - Maybe People will say that Ho-oh is the best fire pokemon but
for me, his flying type cost him the first place. He has extremely high
stats, I know but if he encounters a Raikou or a Zapdos, he'll be knock
out quickly. This is an "if" but this if makes all the difference.
In addition, he comes with Sacred Ash that heals HP and Status condition
of every pokemon in your party.
4) Moltres - Like Ho-oh, Moltres has a second type flying that cost him
the second place. He has very good stats, but like Arcanine he doesn't
learn Fire Blast so you'll have to teach him the move with TMs.
This part is based on the type and not on the stats. If this were based
on stats, Ho-oh and Moltres would come first and second respectively. I
think you should train a good Ho-oh or Moltres if you don't have a very
good flying pokemon and that you haven't train an Arcanine or Entei
because you need these fire in your party, at least one.
4. Pokemon Of This Type:
Cyndaquil
Quilava
Typhlosion
Vulpix
Ninetales
Growlithe
Arcanine
Magby
Magmar
Flareon
Ponyta
Rapidash
Houndour

Charmander
Charmeleon
Charizard
Moltres
Entei
Ho-oh
***********************************************************************
*Water - [WATER]*
***********************************************************************
1. Brief Description: There are tons of water pokemons but very few can
put a good match on the good old Blastoise. These pokemons are quite
common but you'll have to fish most of them if you want to get some of
these powerful pokemon. Some roam in the nature but are quite rare but
some like Suicune can be caught in tall grass. Water is a very powerful
type but they are weak against those nasty electric pokemons. Powerful
techniques are part of this category. If we think of Hydro Pump,
Octazooka, which has a 50% chance of reducing accuracy. Although there
is a lot of great pokemon related to this type, some pokemon aren't very
good. It will be up to you to make the right choice. Also If I can
recommend a good starter it wouldn't be Totodile because water pokemons
are much more common then Fire or the a pure Grass type pokemon like
Chikorita. The best choice would be Chikorita for the starters.

3. Best of Type:
1) Suicune - Suicune is the best of the water type but only at high
levels. He'll only learn Hydro Pump at level 71 which is pretty high for
a good attack.
2) Blastoise - Blastoise is the second best water pokemon, he has some
great attacks that he will learn at lower levels than Suicune. He will
learn at level 55 Skull Bash and 68 Hydro Pump. The reason why Blastoise
is second is because most of Suicunes stats are a tiny bit better than
Blastoise, which will result in his defeat in almost every battles
against Suicune.
3) Feraligatr - Feraligatr in my opinion is better than Blastoise.
Feraligtr stats are better in Attack and Defense than it is in Special
Attack and Special Defense. For a water pokemon it isn't the best thing.
It is a Water pokemon and his stats should be upside down and it would
be in my opinion the best water pokemon of the game. He should have
better special attack and defense because water type moves are
categorized in special attacks.

*Electric - [ELECTRIC]*
***********************************************************************
1. Brief Description: Well as you already know this is the electric
family. Home to great pokemon and as you can figure out, it is a rare
family compared to normal or water. They have great speed in general.
If we think of Electrode who maxes out a 300 pts at level 100, wow! I
think you already know that speed is an important key win a fight. If
your pokemon is quick and inflicts a good move it could knock out almost
everybody in a single shot (maybe two if your opponent is very tough).
If you want speedy pokemons than go with this type. They also have the
best attack in the game which is Zap Cannon (if hit, it paralyzes your
opponent).

Best of Type:
1) Raikou - The best pokemon of the electric class. It has incredibly
good stats and high special attack and defense. His skills are limited
but learns Spark and Thunder, which are great attacks. As the legendary
dogs, these pokemons are great but only at high levels. They learn
their best attacks at level 71.
2) Jolteon - If we think of Jolteon in Red/Blue/Yellow, this would
definitely be the best pokemon. They have lowered his stats in
Gold/Silver/Crystal, a mysterious reason that I haven't yet understood.
He is still a good pokemon and is also very fast. He is even faster than
Raikou. I think that Jolteon is still the best electric pokemon because
he can take out a psychic pokemon with its bug attack "pin missile". One
little thing though, it would lose against a well trained Raikou that is
why it can only be in second.
3) Zapdos - Another legendary pokemon. Zapdos is great and is better
than the two above. again, its second type flying placed it in third
place. Also he learns Thunder at level 73 which is even higher than
Raikou.

*Grass - [GRASS]*
***********************************************************************
Brief Description: Grass type is in my opinion the second best type
after "psychic". In the older versions it wasn't as good as it is today.
Very few of them were pure Grass and even then they weren't very good.
The good grass pokemon were usually mixed with poison (Venausaur). This
was bad, very bad, because they are weak against the best type
"Psychics". Hopefully this version gave hope to this type offering
plenty of new great techniques. Like Synthesis who replenishes your Hit
Hoints. Giga Drain, like the word says drains the energy of your
opponent, in doing that it heals half the damage you have taken from
your opponent. Without forgetting Solar Beam a two turn attack but is
worth the lost of its second turn

Best of Type:
1) Meganium - A very solid pokemon who can deal great damage. It also
has great defense that makes it a tremendously tough pokemon to beat.
It has great moves like Synthesis and Body Slam. If you teach it TM 39
then you should think about leaving a free space in your party for this
powerful pokemon. This should also be your choice as a starter
(Chikorita).
2) Bellosom - A little bit weaker than Meganium but still a great
pokemon. You have to evolve it from Gloom with a Sun Stone. They are
very common in Gold/Silver/Crystal. It has great moves like Petal Dance
and it can learn Solar Beam at level 55.
3) Venausaur - Most people will say this is the greatest grass pokemon
but have you forgotten that it is weak to "Psychic". It is half type
Poison, a very bad idea if you want to be a strong pokemon. I also think
it is a great pokemon who learns great move but because of its weakness
it can only be in third place.

*Ice - [ICE]*
***********************************************************************
1. Brief Description: Not a very common family but surely one the best.
Ice is a very powerful family and is surely one of the rarest type
compared to the others. A very good type with some big potential. This
type doesn't have a lot of techniques but one thing is sure, the
techniques they have are very strong. Aurora Beam, a good low level
attack that does a lot of damage, it also has a 10% success of lowering
attacks. Blizzard with its good accuracy and a 10% freeze can take
damage out of a pokemon. Ice beam with a power of 95 and a 10% freeze
success, not much could endure all this treatment.

3. Best of Type :
1) Lapras - Trusty Lapras is now the best Ice pokemon. Lapras starts
with a good technique Sing. Also, it will learn Confuse Ray, Perish
Song, Ice Beam and Hydro Pump. It can also learn a bunch a good TMs.
Definitely the winner here.
2) Articuno - A tie with Cloyster. The legendary bird of Red/Blue/Yellow
is in best of type. It can learn good attacks like Blizzard, only at
level 73 though and Ice Beam at level 49. As always these legendary
birds have second type flying that cuts  their efficacy by half because
of their weakness to electric.
2) Cloyster - A tie with Articuno, even if Articunos stats are better,
Cloyster doesn't have the second type flying which doesn't make it
vulnerable to electric pokemon. You'll have to teach it TMs if you want
to bring his best potential into battle.

Smoochum
Jynx
Cloyster
Dewgong
Delibird

***********************************************************************
*Fighting - [FIGHTING]*
***********************************************************************
1. Brief Description: The fighting type. Not one of my favorite type
due to their weakness against common types like Poison, Flying,
Psychic and Bug and they can't even hit Ghosts. Even though they have
great attacks. for me it is a waste of time raising one of these
pokemon because their only strong against Ice, Steel and Dark type which
are very uncommon types. Their real advantage is against Normal and Rock.
So if you want to raise one then it will be against these two types that
you'll want your fighting pokemon to battle against. They have decent
attacks if we take the example of Counter which deals 2x the damage of a
non-special attack. Cross Chop which is likely to become a critical hit
and Dynamic Punch, if it hits confuses its opponent.
2. Type Advantage - Disadvantage

To much variation for this type which makes them unreliable pokemons.
Although their weaknesses, I think that a well-raised Hitmonlee can deal
great damage to his opponents even if they are its worst nightmares.
3. Best of Type
1) Hitmonlee - Hitmonlee is the best fighting pokemon. Like in
Red/Blue/Yellow, its good special defense and good attack make
Hitmonlee the best fighter in the game. He will learn his greatest
attack at level 46 Mega kick that has a power of 120. He will learn
reversal at level 51. You could also teach him a great combo and that
would be Rest and Snore. Naturally it won't just learn this combo
itself, you'll have to teach him.
2) Hitmontop - Hitmontop is the second best Fighting pokemon. He'll
learn triple kick at level 49 and can also learn the Rest and Snore
combo with TMs.
3) Machamp - Machamp has better stats in general than Hitmonlee and
Hitmontop. But, Machamps low speed isn't at it's advantage. Speed is a
crucial element in this type of game. He'll lose in a one on one match
against these two just because of its low speed. it's the main reason
why it was placed in third. Although, it learns very good attacks like
Cross Chop at level 43, which is pretty low for a good attack.

***********************************************************************
*Poison - [POISON]*
***********************************************************************
1. Brief Description - One of the worst type of the game and maybe the
worst of every type. Poison pokemon in Red/Blue/Yellow just suck the way
through. Anyhow, in Gold and Silver TMs brought this type up a bit.
Attacks like Sludge Bomb and Toxic played a big role in these game to
raise up their effectiveness into battle. Even though this great idea
brought up the poison type, it won't enough. They hade to innovate in
techniques and they have done exactly what we were waiting for. They
brought up good TMs and techniques. Anyway, no good pokemon have I
remarked to be as powerful as other type pokemons. Not a single good
pokemon of note for that type has been made up in Gold/Silver/Crystal.
So it's best to use the old ones even though they aren't as powerful as
the other type except the half types. Their weakness is "Psychics" which
is the strongest type in the game. I really suggest of thinking twice
before leveling one of those. Your best choice here are the half type
ones like Gengar that may stand a chance against those nasty "psychic"
pokemons.

To much weakness for that type!!
3. Best Of Type:
1) Gengar - The half Poison Gengar. Gengar doesn't learn any poison
techniques but you can teach him Toxic, which is a very good poison
technique. You'll have to trade Haunter to evolve him but it is greatly
worth the trade.
2) Weezing - Weezing is a great pokemon. Anyhow, since this type has to
much weakness he isn't worthy to be a party pokemon. He'll learn
Explosion at  level 44 and Destiny Bond at 51. If you teach him that
with Sludge Bomb and Toxic he could be an "ok" pokemon but he'll never
stand a chance against "Psychics".
3) Muk - Muks stats are pretty well the same as Weezing. Anyhow, Weezing
stats are much more balanced compared to Muk, which plays in the favor
of good old Weezing. He'll learn Sludge Bomb at level 60. If you really
want to train him to that level for a good poison attack then go for it.
