When a move is '''super effective''', it inflicts double the damage it would normally do. For example, a move like {{m|Megahorn}} used against a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon will be super effective because {{type2|Bug}} moves are super effective against Psychic-types. This effect can stack up; for example, a Pokémon that is {{t|Rock}}/{{t|Ground}} and is hit by a {{type2|Water}} move like {{m|Surf}} will be damaged four times as much by the move as a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon would be, because both Rock and Ground Pokémon are weak to Water moves. | When a move is '''super effective''', it inflicts double the damage it would normally do.
