Characteristics

Defensively, the Flying type is useful for it's immunity to the common Ground-type move Earthquake and it's resistance to Fighting. The flying type's weaknesses aren't rare types and can often offset the benefits of immunity to Ground.

Offensively, Flying-type moves are usually only useful when benefited by same-type attack bonus. The types Flying is super-effective against aren't common, and being not very effective against Steel is never good.
