The Trainer Hub Pokémon GO Database

Trainer Hub's Pokémon GO database: the type chart, all 18 types, weather boosts, Legendary and Mythical Pokémon, raid tiers, Eggs and items in one place.

The guides on Trainer Hub explain how Pokémon GO works. The database is where you look things up quickly: which type beats which, what the weather boosts, how raid tiers compare, what hatches from which Egg and what every everyday item does. Each section sticks to facts that stay stable from season to season, so you can trust a page months after it was written.

Types at a glance

Every Pokémon has one or two of these eighteen types. Pick one to see its matchups:

The three numbers worth remembering

Pokémon GO uses its own damage multipliers rather than the ones from the main series games. A super effective attack deals 1.6× damage, a not very effective attack deals 0.625×, and matchups that would have no effect at all in the main series instead deal roughly 0.39× in GO. Dual types multiply together, which is how a Pokémon can end up doubly weak or doubly resistant to one type. The type chart has every single-type matchup, and our battle rules guide explains how fast and charged moves fit around it.

How to use it alongside the guides

  • Planning a raid? Look up the boss's types in the chart, then check the weather page to see whether today's conditions help your counters.
  • Deciding what to power up? The core mechanics guide covers CP and IVs; the type pages tell you which matchups a Pokémon will actually be useful in.
  • Chasing a Legendary? Read the Legendary and Mythical page, then the Legendary raids FAQ in our events section.

What we leave out on purpose

You won't find CP numbers, move damage values or lists of current raid bosses here. Those change often, sometimes with every balance update or season, and a stale number is worse than no number. For anything live, such as which Pokémon are in raids this week, the in-game news is the source to check. Everything in this database is written to stay true between those updates.
