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