Battle notes
- Anorith's Rock / Bug typing is best attacked with Water (2x), Rock (2x), Steel (2x). Start with those attacking types when choosing moves or counter Pokémon.
- Avoid relying on common Normal, Poison attacks unless they have unusually high power or a secondary purpose, because Anorith resists or ignores those matchups.
- This guide uses the modern Gen 6+ type chart only. Abilities, held items, Terastallization, weather, fields, and special move rules can still change real battle outcomes.
