Appendix:Glossary (TCG): Difference between revisions

If a Pokémon has Weakness to a certain type, it means that if it is attacked by a Pokémon of that type, it will receive more damage. Before {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}}, Weaknesses were fixed at ×2 damage, meaning the Pokémon would take twice the amount of damage dealt by an attack; as of that set, Weaknesses are variable, with Weaknesses of +10, +20, +30, +40 and ×2 existing. Generally, Basic Pokémon will have a Weakness of +10, Stage 1 Pokémon one of +20, and Stage 2 Pokémon one of +30, with a select few having one of +40. There is no general pattern (except perhaps [[Legendary Pokémon]]) of Pokémon with a ×2 Weakness although {{TCG|Pokémon SP}} '''''always''''' have a weakness of ×2.
