Despite being a {{type|Fighting}} move, the damage dealt is actually a combination of Fighting and {{t|Flying}} types, and thus its [[type effectiveness|effectiveness]] against a given Pokémon differs from other Fighting-type moves. However, for all other purposes, it is a Fighting-type move: only Fighting-type Pokémon can receive the [[same-type attack bonus]] on Flying Press, it is unaffected by items like the [[Sky Plate]] and [[Flying Gem]], and it will not activate the target's [[Coba Berry]] (but will activate [[Chople Berry]] in cases where a regular {{type|Fighting}} move would deal supereffective damage).

If Flying Press is used while under the effect of {{m|Electrify}} or {{a|Normalize}}, damage is calculated using Flying type and {{t|Electric}} or {{t|Normal}} type modifiers instead.
