Types refer to different elemental properties associated with both Pokémon and their moves. There are 18 total official types of Pokémon:
Normal | Fire |
Water | Grass |
Electric | Ice |
Fighting | Poison |
Ground | |
Psychic | Bug |
Rock | Ghost |
Dark | Dragon |
Steel | Fairy |
These 18 types apply to both Pokémon and their moves. Prior to Generation V, there used to be a ??? type which was only applied to the move Curse before having its typing changed, and the Shadow type, which was only present in Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.
Each type has its own strengths and weaknesses, most of which are logical setups. Fire-type Pokémon are weak against Water-type Pokémon, Ice-type Pokémon are weak against Fire-type Pokémon, Water-type Pokémon are weak against Electric-type Pokémon, etc. These matchups also apply to the types of moves as well: A Fire-type move such as Ember will be strong against a Grass-type Pokémon such as Bulbasaur. Some types of Pokémon are also immune to a certain type of moves, regardless of its attack power, such as using an offensive Ghost-type move on a Normal-type Pokémon.
Pokémon themselves can have up to two types, making them Dual-Type Pokémon, but moves can only be one type (with the exception of the move Flying Press which is a Fighting/ -type move). Most if not all dual-type Pokémon's types correspond with one another such as a Grass/Poison-type Pokémon such as Bulbasaur, or a Rock/Ground-type Pokémon such as Onix. However, not all dual-type Pokémon's types relate to each other like this. Some Pokémon may be dual-type between two types that don't normally go together such as Water/Electric-types (such as Lanturn) or Grass/Water types (such as Ludicolo) or Grass/ -types (such as Jumpluff), or Fighting/Psychic (such as Medicham). Some dual-type Pokémon lose one of their types and gain a different type upon Evolution such as Scyther (a Bug/ -type) which evolves into Scizor (a Bug/Steel-type). Some singular type Pokémon will change completely to a different type or types upon evolution, such as Azurill (a Normal/Fairy-Type) which evolves into Marill (a Water/Fairy-Type) or Eevee (a Normal-Type) which can evolve into Flareon (a Fire-Type), Jolteon (an Electric-Type), Vaporeon (a Water-Type), Espeon (a Psychic-Type), Umbreon (a Dark-Type), Glaceon (an Ice-Type), Leafeon (a Grass-Type) or Sylveon (a Fairy-Type). One Pokémon also completely lose a type upon evolution, Gloom (a Grass/Poison type) evolves into Bellossom (a Grass type). One Pokémon can also change their type altogether, Cubone (a Ground-type) evolves into Alolan Marowak (a Fire/Ghost-type).

Trivia
- The only exception to the max dual typing is the manga-exclusive "Zapmolcuno" which is an Ice/Electric/Fire/ type (mostly just used as ???/ type for short).
- So far, the Water-type and -type have mixed with every type.
- Both Generation II and VI added to the list of types, Gen II adding Dark and Steel and Gen VI adding Fairy.
- The only max single typing move is the move Flying Press which is a Fighting/ type move.
- However, in Pokémon Masters, there are Unity Moves which can use three types if all Pokémon on your side of the field have different typings.
