Making Pokémon Type Matchups Simple & Useful
Pokémon Type Calculator is an independent fan-created website designed to make Pokémon type matchups easier to understand and use.
The idea behind the website is simple: instead of remembering every type interaction or repeatedly checking a large type chart, players can use a straightforward calculator to explore weaknesses, resistances, and immunities in one place.
Our Story
Pokémon Type Calculator started with a practical goal: to create a clean and easy-to-use resource for players who want quick answers about Pokémon type matchups.
Type effectiveness can become complicated when dual-type Pokémon are involved. A single Pokémon can have two types, which means one attacking type may deal normal damage, super-effective damage, reduced damage, or no damage at all depending on the combination.
We created this website to organize those interactions into a tool that is easier to understand at a glance, whether someone is learning the type system or simply wants to check a matchup quickly.
Meet the Creator
Mical Boje
I’m Mical Boje, the creator behind Pokémon Type Calculator. I built this website to provide a practical, straightforward way to explore Pokémon type effectiveness without making users work through a complicated chart every time.
My focus is on keeping the calculator easy to use, presenting information clearly, and continuously improving the website as the project develops.
Why We Built This Website
The Pokémon type system is easy to understand at a basic level, but it can become difficult to remember when different type combinations are involved.
Pokémon Type Calculator was created to solve that simple problem by putting the matchup information into an interactive tool.
What You Can Find Here
The website is built around Pokémon type information and practical tools that help users understand matchups.

Our Approach to Information
We believe a useful calculator should not simply produce a result—it should also help users understand what that result means.
That is why the website combines interactive tools with clear explanations of Pokémon type relationships.
When developing and reviewing information for the site, we focus on keeping type interactions consistent, understandable, and presented in a way that is useful for everyday players.
- We aim for clear and easy-to-understand explanations.
- We organize information around practical Pokémon type-matchup questions.
- We review calculator behavior and type interactions as the website is developed and improved.
- We welcome user feedback when something appears unclear or incorrect.
Accuracy & Ongoing Updates
Accuracy matters because a small mistake in a type matchup can lead to a completely different strategic decision.
We therefore make an effort to keep the calculator’s type-effectiveness logic consistent and review the website when changes or improvements are made.
