 Despite these offensive flaws, the Bug-type pairs very effectively with {{t|Water}} and {{t|Ice}} because, as of [[Generation V]], there {{p|Burungel|are}} {{p|Empoleon|only}} {{p|Tentacool|6}} {{p|Tentacruel|Pokémon}} {{p|Qwilfish|out}} {{p|Pururiru|of}}  649 resist this combination of moves.
-Defensively, Bug-types are still flawed, because of their low {{stat|Defense}} and the fact that there are many that are part {{t|Flying}}, multiplying their weakness to {{t|Rock}}. In this way their resistance {{t|Ground}} and  {{t|Fighting}}, two extremely powerful types, are of little use, as it is common for both types to master Rock moves.

 Dual-type Bug/Flying and Bug/{{t|Poison}} Pokémon have an outstanding double resistance to {{t|Fighting}}, which can make up for their low {{stat|Defense}}. They also have a double resistance to common {{t|Grass}} moves, meaning they would take very little damage from such notorious moves as {{m|Giga Drain}}, {{m|Energy Ball}}, or {{m|Petal Dance}}.
