Defensively, the Flying type is very useful for its immunity to the powerful {{type|Ground}} moves and its resistance to {{t|Fighting}}, although most Flying types are part {{t|Normal}}, making their resistance to the Fighting type ineffective. However, its weaknesses to {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Rock}}, and {{t|Ice}} are common. Not to mention that most Flying-type Pokémon are dual types, making them with double weakness are quite common.

However, its weaknesses to {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Rock}}, and {{t|Ice}} are common. In addition, almost all Flying types are dual-typed, thus making some vulnerable to double weaknesses.


Despite this, most Flying types have access to {{m|Roost}}, allowing them to restore their health and temporarily lose their Flying type, a utility that used to remove Flying type's weaknesses when healing. However, this also makes them vulnerable to Ground-type moves. If a pure Flying-type Pokémon uses Roost, then it will become a {{t|???}} type in [[Generation IV]] and a {{t|Normal}} type in [[Generation V]] onwards.
