Cobblemon Types Guide
Master all 18 types to build unbeatable teams. Learn each type's strengths, weaknesses, top picks, and where they spawn in the world.
Type Breakdown
Fire
Strong vs: Grass, Ice, Bug, Steel
Weak to: Water, Ground, Rock
Fire-types excel in early game — they can light furnaces and deal with Bug and Grass encounters. Charizard and Arcanine are top-tier picks for survival and PvP.
Water
Strong vs: Fire, Ground, Rock
Weak to: Grass, Electric
Water is the most versatile type with only two weaknesses. Gyarados, Blastoise, and Lapras offer great coverage. Water-types spawn near oceans, rivers, and beaches.
Grass
Strong vs: Water, Ground, Rock
Weak to: Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, Bug
Despite many weaknesses, Grass-types have access to status moves like Sleep Powder and Leech Seed. Venusaur and Serperior are solid competitive choices.
Electric
Strong vs: Water, Flying
Weak to: Ground
Electric has only one weakness — Ground. Use Levitate Pokémon like Rotom or hold an Air Balloon to negate it. Thunder Wave is invaluable for catching wild Cobblemon.
Ground
Strong vs: Fire, Electric, Poison, Rock, Steel
Weak to: Water, Grass, Ice
Ground is one of the best offensive types, hitting 5 types super-effectively. Earthquake is one of the strongest moves in the game. Garchomp and Excadrill dominate PvP.
Ice
Strong vs: Grass, Ground, Flying, Dragon
Weak to: Fire, Fighting, Rock, Steel
Ice-types are rare but invaluable for their Dragon coverage. They spawn in snowy biomes and frozen oceans. Weavile and Mamoswine are excellent offensive picks.
Bug
Strong vs: Grass, Psychic, Dark
Weak to: Fire, Flying, Rock
Bug-types evolve early, making them great for quick team building. Scizor (Bug/Steel) is a top-tier threat with Technician-boosted Bullet Punch.
Ghost
Strong vs: Ghost, Psychic
Weak to: Ghost, Dark
Ghost-types are immune to Normal and Fighting — two common attack types. They spawn at night in dark areas. Gengar and Dragapult are PvP staples.
Fairy
Strong vs: Fighting, Dragon, Dark
Weak to: Poison, Steel
Fairy is the strongest defensive type, with a Dragon immunity. Togekiss, Clefable, and Sylveon are dominant in competitive play. They spawn in flower forests.
