All types, strengths and weaknesses of Pokemon Go

Pokemon Go, just like traditional games, feature battles between Pokemon of different types. Pokémon moves also have types, and each type and move has its strengths and weaknesses. For example, a Fire Pokémon with a Fire move, such as Flamethrower, is usually strong against a monster that is either Grass or Bug. However, Fire Pokémon are generally weaker against Pokémon that have Earth Water moves, which makes it important to know the strengths and weaknesses of each type.
