→Hi! Billy Mays SillyWynaut96 here, with another question.
| Line 151: | Line 151: | ||
Hope you laughed too! Anyway, I've got another (hopefully simpler) factual question (hate to single you out, but 'Head of Games' seems like the go-to for this). You're aware of the whole, grass beats water, water beats fire, fire beats grass thing. So, just how many of these rock-paper-scissor-style type-effectiveness triangles are there? Can you name them? And besides the obvious difference of the fairy type, would there be any other differences between gen III and gen VI in this respect? Thanks for putting up with me, [[User:SillyWynaut96|SillyWynaut96]] ([[User talk:SillyWynaut96|talk]]) 15:48, 2 April 2014 (UTC) | Hope you laughed too!

:After googling around, I think I should clarify. For my purposes, a type triangle strictly means that x is super effective to y, is super effective to z, is super effective to x. Also, x is resistant to (NOT immune to) z, is resistant to y, is resistant to x.

::Sorry to butt in, Jo, but The Cave of Dragonflies has a [http://dragonflycave.com/newtypetool.asp good type-interaction tool] that can tell you this and lots of other things. (The [http://dragonflycave.com/typechart.html newer version] doesn't have type polygons, but it does a lot of other things a lot better than the older one, so take a look at it, too, if you're interested.) As for your question, there are four: Fire/Water/Grass, Fire/Rock/Steel, Grass/Poison/Ground, and Fighting/Flying/Rock.
