::::::Excuse my bluntness, but what you assume about 4Kids (and yes, you're speculating) is meaningless. Each of those questions asks for '''the best choice''' based on type match-ups. Not the Pokémon with the best offensive advantage, not a list of choices with advantages, '''the best one.''' That's a pretty clear meaning. Venomoth, who has two super effective types and a double resistance to Grass, is inarguably a better choice than Gastly and Wailmer. Regardless of 4Kids' numerous errors and whatever alternate definition you speculate they had, the wording is clear, and so should our criteria. —<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="#fff">The</font>]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">Best</font>]]</span></font> 07:42, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

:::::::'''Based on type match-ups'''. Resistance ''is'' best offensive/defensive advantage, not just an advantage. Gastly is a poison type. Poison beats Grass, simple as that.

::::::::You seem to be ignoring both the simple definition of "best" and all my valid points, so I'll phrase it your way: "Bug/Poison beats Grass even better than Poison, simple as that." Why do you agree that Gastly "would be a possible choice, not the best choice," yet refuse to let Venomoth occupy the note box alone? If the whole purpose of notes is to point out errors and trivia, why do you want every choice with at least one advantage mentioned? That is ''not'' what the question is. It asks for ''the best choice'' and you for some reason have something against that. Very few of them actually have equally-good match-ups, such as Swampert and Larvitar's immunity to Electric. The rest have a clear winner. Notes should ''only'' mention them. —<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="#fff">The</font>]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">Best</font>]]</span></font> 19:08, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
