Battle notes
- Dark / Normal intensifies Fighting into a 4x weakness, so those attacks are the cleanest punish.
- Because dual types multiply both defensive matchups, Fighting attacks (4x) is the most direct way to punish this combination under the modern Gen 6+ chart.
- Avoid defaulting to Psychic, Ghost, Dark attacks unless you have a specific reason; this typing resists or blocks those lines of play.
- This exact typing exists in the current National Dex, so the matchup is useful for real Pokémon pages and team planning.
