Dual-type Pokemon

A Pokemon can have one or two types. A Pokemon with two types is also known as a dual-type Pokemon. The weakness multipliers of two types are mutliplied against each other to create an increased or decreased effect.

For example, both Bug type and Grass type Pokemon have a 2x weakness to Fire. If a dual-type Pokemon has the types Grass and Bug, then their weakness to fire is increased to 4x (2 x 2).
