The '''Flying type''' (Japanese: '''ひこうタイプ''' ''Flying type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Flying-type [[move]]s are super-effective against {{t|Bug}}-, {{t|Fighting}}-, and {{t|Grass}}-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Flying-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Electric}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, and {{t|Rock}}-type moves.

===Generation II onwards===
Flying-type Pokémon are not considered [[grounded]] for effects that affect grounded Pokémon (e.g. [[entry hazards]]). If they lose their ungrounded status by methods like holding [[Iron Ball]] or being under the effect of moves {{m|Ingrain}} ([[Generation IV]] onward), {{m|Gravity}}, {{m|Smack Down}} or {{m|Thousand Arrows}} they also lose their immunity to Ground type moves. Holding [[Ring Target]] makes them lose their type immunity to {{t|Ground}} type moves, but keeps ungrounded status for other effects.

==Characteristics==
===Additional effects===
===Defense===
From [[Generation II]] onwards, Flying-type Pokémon are not considered [[grounded]] for effects that affect grounded Pokémon (e.g. [[entry hazard]]s). This makes Flying-type Pokémon immune to the [[Ability]] {{a|Arena Trap}}, the [[move]] {{m|Rototiller}}, and all entry hazards (except {{m|Stealth Rock}}), but also from the benefits of [[terrain]]s (though they can still use Seeds). If Flying-type Pokémon lose their ungrounded status by methods like holding [[Iron Ball]] or being under the effect of moves such as {{m|Ingrain}} ([[Generation IV]] onward), {{m|Gravity}}, {{m|Smack Down}} or {{m|Thousand Arrows}}, they also lose their immunity to Ground-type Pokémon in addition to those benefitted from being ungrounded. Holding [[Ring Target]] makes them lose their type immunity to {{t|Ground}} type moves, but keeps ungrounded status for other effects.
In addition to being immune to {{type|Ground}} attacks and {{a|Arena Trap}}, Flying-type Pokémon are unaffected by {{m|Rototiller}} and all [[entry hazard]]s (except {{m|Stealth Rock}}). Flying-type Pokémon also cannot absorb {{m|Toxic Spikes}} simply by switching in and do not receive the benefits from [[terrain]]s (though they can still use Seeds). These immunities, as well as the immunity to Arena Trap, are removed when a Flying-type Pokémon is [[grounded]] by {{m|Ingrain}}, {{m|Gravity}}, {{m|Smack Down}}, {{m|Thousand Arrows}}, or [[Iron Ball]]. {{m|Sky Drop}} can pick up a Flying-type target and make it unable to move. On the next turn, Sky Drop will fail and free the target, even if the target is grounded.
 
When a Flying-type uses {{m|Roost}}, it temporarily loses its Flying type for a turn. If a pure Flying-type Pokémon uses Roost, then it will become a {{t|???}} type in [[Generation IV]] and a {{t|Normal}} type in [[Generation V]] onward.


Flying-type Pokémon, on average, have the highest {{stat|Speed}} of all Pokémon and of fully evolved Pokémon. <!--As of Generation 7-->
When a Flying-type uses the move {{m|Roost}}, introduced in [[Generation IV]], it temporarily loses its Flying type for a turn. If a pure Flying-type Pokémon uses Roost, then it will become a {{t|???}} type in Generation IV and a {{t|Normal}} type in [[Generation V]] onward.


===Offense===
The move {{m|Sky Drop}}, introduced in [[Generation V]], allows the user to pick up a Flying-type Pokémon and make it unable to move. However, on the next turn, Sky Drop will fail and free the target, even if the target is grounded.
Flying-type attacks are very powerful when combined with certain other attacking types, most notably {{t|Ground}}. Ground is strong against every type that resists Flying, and vice versa, so this combination is resisted only by Flying-type Pokémon whose other type resists Flying (such as an {{t|Electric}}/Flying Pokémon).


The effectiveness of the move {{m|Flying Press}} is calculated by multiplying the effectiveness of its move type (usually {{t|Fighting}}) and the Flying type.
The effectiveness of the move {{m|Flying Press}}, introduced in [[Generation VI]], is calculated by multiplying the effectiveness of its move type (usually {{t|Fighting}}) and the Flying type.
 
===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Flying-type moves are typically {{OBP|Cool|condition}} moves.

As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Flying-type Pokémon|pages}} Flying-type Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Flying-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Flying-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]]), making it the 4th most common type after {{t|Grass}} and before {{t|Psychic}}. All other types have been paired up with Flying at least once — in [[Generation VI]], after the release of {{p|Hawlucha}}, Flying became the first type to have this trait.
