Trivia

• The Bird-type is mentioned in Song of Origin, the Japanese ending for Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, along with some of the other elemental types. Whether this was an error or not is unknown.
• In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, the caretaker of Vermilion Gym mistakenly refers to the Template:Type2 as the Bird-type. The exact quote is "Bird/Template:Type2 Pokémon match poorly against the Template:Type2."
• In the Pokémon anime, especially the 4Kids dub, the Template:Type2 is often mistakenly referred to as the Bird-type.
• Bird-like Pokémon have been referred to as "Bird Pokémon" at least once in almost every Pokémon franchise.
• The Bird-type is similar to the ???-type in the fact that it has no weaknesses or resistances.
• Both Bird-type Pokémon have similar movesets. Among other moves, they both learn Sky Attack by leveling up.

Cooltrainer♀-type

If you were looking for the Trainer class, see Cool Trainer.

If you were looking for the glitch move commonly called Cooltrainer, see -- (move).

CoolTrainer♀ is a glitch type from the Generation I games. It is displayed where type data is absent, most notably through Ditto's Transform glitch, as the type of the blank data move.

Glitch-type

If you were looking for the article on glitches, see Glitch.

The Glitch-type is not actually a single type, rather a large array of types which have random, glitchy names often made up of glitchy blocks rather than actual characters. As such, no Pokémon purely of one of these types can receive STAB from any attacks.
