===Defense===
Defensively, Grass types have both good and bad points. While they have key resistances to {{t|Water}}, {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Electric}}, they are tied with {{t|Rock}} in having the most weaknesses out of all types with five, however, only {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Flying}} are commonly used offensively. Additionally most Grass types have well balanced defensive stats, and two of their weaknesses have poor offensive stats on average. On the other hand many Grass types also have double weaknesses, with some of them having even two of them.

Additionally, most Grass types have well-balanced defensive stats, and two of their weaknesses have poor offensive stats on average. On the other hand, many Grass types also have double weaknesses, with some of them having even two of them.


Since [[Generation I]], a particular asset of Grass types is being the only type that is immune to {{m|Leech Seed}}. As of [[Generation VI]], Grass-type Pokémon are also immune to {{cat|Powder and spore moves}}, such as {{m|Sleep Powder}} and {{m|Spore}}. As these moves are mostly learned by Grass types, this enables them to provide support to the rest of their team and can make them difficult to defeat. Because of this, they are good at defending against other Grass types.

Although they are the only type that can {{DL|Damage modification|super effective|super-effective}}ly handle {{t|Water}}, {{t|Ground}}, and {{t|Rock}} Pokémon, Grass types have several disadvantages. As Grass-type attacks are resisted by seven types, tied with {{t|Bug}}, double resistances to Grass are extremely common, even more so than double weaknesses.

Most Grass-type attacks are not very powerful or have severe drawbacks prior to [[Generation IV]], and the majority of Grass types have narrow attacking coverage. Despite this, a majority of Grass types have above-average {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Special Attack}}, and Grass types deal the most 4x super effective damage out of all types.
