- Archeops's Rock / Flying typing is best attacked with Water (2x), Electric (2x), Ice (2x). Start with those attacking types when choosing moves or counter Pokémon.
- Avoid relying on common Ground, Normal, Fire, Poison attacks unless they have unusually high power or a secondary purpose, because Archeops 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.
