 * Generation IV introduced the most Rock-type moves of any Generation, with six, and Generation VI introduced the least, with none.
 * If there were a Pokémon of all 18 types, it would be weak to only Rock-type moves and {{m|Freeze-Dry}}, due to the fact that there are more Pokémon types weak to them than Pokémon types that resist them, and that no types are immune to them.
-** However, if moves like {{m|Foresight}} or {{m|Gravity}} are used, that hypothetical Pokémon would gain weaknesses to {{t|Fighting}}- and {{type|Ground}} moves respectively (and the former if the attacking Pokémon had {{a|Scrappy}}).
+** However, if {{m|Gravity}} was used, that hypothetical Pokémon would gain a weakness to {{type|Ground}} moves as well.
 * In the first season of the {{pkmn|anime}} and during much of [[Generation I]], the Rock type was often wrongly assumed to be unaffected by {{type|Electric}} attacks. This was likely due to the fact that at the time, most Rock-type Pokémon were part Ground-type, and thus immune to Electric-type moves. However, the only non-Ground Rock-type Pokémon (the then five [[Fossil]] Pokémon) were actually weak to them.
 * The Rock type is tied with the {{t|Grass}} type for the largest number of weaknesses when unpaired, with five: {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Water}}, {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Fighting}}, and {{t|Steel}}.
