The Normal [[type]] is tied with the {{t|Electric}} type for the fewest defensive weaknesses, but with no resistances and one immunity, it is also tied with {{t|Ice}} as the least resistant type. Many Normal-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a secondary type mitigate their weakness with the secondary type (as with {{t|Flying}}, the type most commonly paired with Normal), leaving them with only the weaknesses of their secondary type. | The Normal [[type]] is tied with the {{t|Electric}} type for the fewest defensive weaknesses, but with no resistances and one immunity, it is also tied with {{t|Ice}} as the least resistant type.

The combination of Normal and {{type|Ground}} [[moves]] provides good neutral coverage, with only five type combinations resisting both, because Ground covers both of the types that resist Normal. Their inability to hit {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon can be nullified by using {{m|Foresight}}, {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, or by Pokémon with the [[Ability]] {{a|Scrappy}}. In these cases, it will provide unresisted coverage when paired with {{type|Fighting}} moves (excluding Pokémon with {{a|Wonder Guard}}). | The combination of Normal and {{type|Ground}} [[moves]] provides good neutral coverage, with only five type combinations resisting both, because Ground covers both of the types that resist Normal.
