** The Fear type being super-effective against itself may be a reference to the phrase "We have nothing to fear, except fear itself". Also, Fear is super-effective against Psychic, because it's hard to concentrate when you're scared.

Added DiffLines:

** Water-type attacks are super effective against Tech-type Pokemon because if an electronic device such as a phone, laptop, or radio (or at least those that aren't waterproof), it no longer works (even drying it out may not guarantee that it will work again). Also, Water-type Pokemon are weak to Plastic attacks because plastic is a well-known pollutant of oceans in real life.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Fartillery}}: There is a move simply named "Fart". Contrary to most depictions of this trope, the move is [[JokeWeapon one of the most useless moves in the game]], having only ''5'' BP, 90% accuracy, and zero side effects (not even poisoning the opponent).


Added DiffLines:

* PoisonIsCorrosive: The Poison-type move Corrosive Spray can damage Steel-type Pokemon (who are normally immune to said type).

None

Added DiffLines:

* BizarroElements: While some of the new types are rather straightforward, such as [[GreenThumb Wood]], [[MagmaMan Magma]], [[BlowYouAway Wind]], [[LightEmUp Light]], and [[MakeMeWannaShout Sound]], others are material-based (such as Paper, Rubber, Plastic, and Fabric), similar to already existing types (such as Magic being similar to Psychic, and Nuclear being similar to Poison), or just downright weird (such as Paint, Food, Grease, Ogre, and perhaps most strange of all, ''Meme'').

Added DiffLines:

* GreenThumb: As well as the canon Grass type, this game includes the Wood type.


Added DiffLines:

* ThePowerOfGlass: The Glass type is introduced. It resists almost as many types as Steel does (and is outright immune to Water). Mirror Shot (which was a Steel-type move in canon) has been reclassified as a Glass-type move.

Added DiffLines:

* ArtAttacker: The Paint type has been added. As you may expect, Smeargle has been given this type, as well as Octillery's [[SuperMode Mega Evolution]] (which is exclusive to this game).

Added DiffLines:

* BubblegumPopping: The move Gum Burst involves the user popping a giant bubblegum bubble to hit all targets on the other side of the field.


Added DiffLines:

* EdibleAmmunition: Cream Missile, a multi-hitting move, involves shooting projectiles at the opponent which are made of, well, cream.

Added DiffLines:

* BlackMagic: One Magic-type attack is named as such. It also deals Dark-type damage.


Added DiffLines:

* DungFu: One Poison-type move (Poop Toss) involves flinging fecal matter at the opposing Pokemon.


Added DiffLines:

** Ghost-type Pokemon are immune to Blood-type attacks, since ghosts are spectral beings, and therefore have no blood in their bodies.

* MutualDisadvantage:
** Thanks to a BalanceBuff, Water-type attacks are not very effective against Ice-type Pokemon. The reverse is also true, just like in canon.
** Light- and Dark-type attacks are super-effective against one another.
** Tech- and Grass-type attacks are super-affective against each other.
** Water-type Pokemon resist Grease-type attacks and vice versa.


Added DiffLines:

Added DiffLines:

* AgonyOfTheFeet: The Plastic-type move Lego Trap involves setting up the titular product on the opposite side of the field as an entry hazard, hurting all non-airborne Pokemon when they switch in. This is a nod to how painful stepping on Lego is in real life.

* PowerOfTheVoid: The new Void-type is immune to almost ''every'' type, both old and new, with the exception of Wack.

Added DiffLines:

* LogicalWeakness: Much like the main games, a lot of the types introduced have weaknesses, resistances, and immunities that make logical sense.
** Wind-type moves have no effect on Cosmic-type Pokemon, since there's no air in space.
** Rock-type Pokemon are weak to Paper-type moves, while Paper-type Pokemon resist Rock-type moves. After all, Paper beats Rock in RockPaperScissors.
** Tech-type Pokemon are weak to Virus moves because, once your computer (or other piece of technology) contracts a virus, it tends to glitch out and stop working.
** Bug-type Pokemon being immune to Nuclear-type moves is a reference to how cockroaches can survive nuclear devastation in real life.
** Food-type Pokemon are weak to Poison-type moves, since poisoning food renders it completely inedible.
** Rubber-type Pokemon are immune to Electric-type moves, since rubber is a very good insulator of electricity.
** Zombie-type Pokemon are immune to Fear-type moves, because fear is a purely emotional response, which won't have any effect on someone or something without a brain.

Added DiffLines:

* HeartBeatdown: The Heart type is introduced. Lilligant, Luvdisc, and Mesprit have been given this new type, along with moves such as Attract, Heart Swap, and Heart Stamp.
* ILoveNuclearPower: The Nuclear type is introduced. Unlike the version of the type that was introduced in ''VideoGame/PokemonUranium'', this type has a more varied spread of resistances and weaknesses, as opposed to being simultaneously super-effective against and weak to almost every type.

* AdaptionExpansion: There are an additional 32 types not seen in the original franchise, as well as Shadow (from ''VideoGame/PokemonColosseum'' and its sequel) and ??? (only used for a single move in the first four generations, before being discontinued in Gen V). Thousands of new Pokemon now exist, along with plenty of new moves, forms, abilities, and evolutions.
* LightEmUp: The Light-type appears in this fangame, with Pokemon such as Sunflora, Ampharos, Lumineon, and Midday Form Lycanroc gaining this type. Quite a few moves overlap with ThePowerOfTheSun.
* MakeMeWannaShout: As is the case in most fanons, the Sound-type appears. Moves that were Normal-type originally (such as Sing, Relic Song, Roar, and Echoed Voice) become this type, and Pokemon such as the Whismur line, the Jigglypuff line, Chatot, Noibat and Noivern, and Chimecho) gain the Sound-type.

* BlowYouAway: In the original games, the closest thing to this trope was the Flying type. In ''Wack'', there is the Wind type, which is much closer to this trope. Moves such as Whirlwind and Razor Wind have been converted from Normal-type to this type, and Tornadus' type is now Wind/Flying instead of just Flying.
* GlassShatteringSound: Sound-type moves are super effective against Glass-type Pokemon, likely for this reason. There is also the move "Glassbreaker" that shatters the barriers put up by Reflect and Light Screen.

* MagmaMan: The Magma type is introduced. Unsurprisingly, Heatran's primary type has been changed from Fire to Magma, and its SecretArt Magma Storm (as well as Lava Plume, another move it often uses) are now Magma type.

* SpaceMaster: The Cosmic type is one of the many new types introduced. The Cosmog line, Elgyem and Beheeyem, Deoxys, Clefairy and Clefable, the Gothita line, Solrock and Lunatone, and more have gained the Cosmic type. Moves such as Comet Punch and Lunar Dance are also Cosmic type.
* TimeMaster: The Time type is another new type that has been added. Celebi's type has changed from Grass/Psychic to Grass/Time, and moves such as Speed Swap and Trick Room have been assigned this type.
