Battle notes
- Fighting / Steel cancels or softens common single-type weaknesses such as Flying, Psychic, Fairy, which is why the combined chart matters more than either type alone.
- Because dual types multiply both defensive matchups, Fire attacks (2x) is the most direct way to punish this combination under the modern Gen 6+ chart.
- Avoid defaulting to Poison, Bug, Rock, Normal 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.
