Normal redirects here. For the glitch Normal type, see List of glitch types#Normal.

The Normal type (Japanese: ノーマルタイプ Normal type) is one of the eighteen types. Notable Trainers who specialize in Normal-type Pokémon are Gym Leaders Whitney of Goldenrod City, Norman of Petalburg City, Lenora of Nacrene City, and Cheren of Aspertia City. Prior to changes in Generation IV, all Normal-type moves were physical, but they may now also be special depending on the attack.

Note: Although Normal-type attacks normally have no effect on Ghost-type Pokémon, the moves Foresight and Odor Sleuth, as well as the Ability Scrappy, allow both Normal-type and Fighting-type moves to affect Ghost-type Pokémon. Additionally, the move Struggle can hit Ghost-type Pokémon.

Characteristics

The majority of Normal-type Pokémon do not have a second type. Most Normal-type Pokémon with two types are Normal/Flying.

Defense

The Normal type is a mixed bag defensively. It sports only one weakness, but only one immunity and no resistances. A fair number of Normal-type Pokémon also have high stats defensively. However, Fighting-type moves are very common and have gained popularity due to their advantage over the Normal type. This is made even worse by the fact that Generation V has introduced many common powerful Fighting-type Pokémon, as well as more powerful moves.

Offense

The type performs similarly offensively. There are only two types that resist Normal-type moves (Rock and Steel), and one type that is immune (Ghost). Because no type is weak against Normal-type moves, they cannot deal super effective damage. This is somewhat countered by many Normal types being able to learn Fighting and Ground moves, which are super effective against both types that are resistant to Normal-type moves (excluding Ghost). Many Normal-type Pokémon are also capable of learning Dark-type moves, which provide great neutral coverage together as they are no longer resisted by Steel as of Generation VI.

Contest properties

When used in Contests, Normal-type moves do not favor a particular Contest type.

Pokémon

As of Generation VI, there are 97 Normal-type Pokémon or 13.2% of all Pokémon (counting forms and Mega Evolutions that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the second most common type after Water.

Trivia

  • Generation I introduced the most Normal-type Pokémon of any generation, with 24. Generation VI introduced the fewest Normal-type Pokémon, with eight.
  • Generation I introduced the most Normal-type moves of any generation, with 78. Generation VI introduced the fewest Normal-type moves, with seven.
  • With 178 Normal-type moves, this type has the most moves available.
  • The Normal type is the only type that is not super effective against anything. By extension, this means it is not possible to resist Normal-type moves during an Inverse Battle.
  • The Normal type has the fewest non-neutral type relations, with only four: Rock, Steel, Ghost, and Fighting.
  • Normal-type Pokémon have the highest average HP stat.
  • For the purpose of the Purify Chamber, Normal is considered strong against itself, even though in battle it isn't.
  • Bite, Sand Attack, Gust, Karate Chop, Charm, Moonlight, and Sweet Kiss were formerly Normal-type moves.
  • Normal is the only type to have ever lost Pokémon, having lost Clefairy, Clefable, Cleffa, Togepi, Togetic, Snubbull, Granbull, and Togekiss when the Fairy type was introduced.
  • There are no part-Normal-type Pokémon that have a double weakness to another type.
    • However, Generation VI introduced the move Flying Press, which counts as both a Flying and Fighting move. This means Deerling, Sawsbuck, and Pirouette Forme Meloetta are all doubly weak to the move.
