{{Types}}

The '''Normal type''' (Japanese: '''ノーマルタイプ''' ''Normal type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Normal-type [[move]]s were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]], depending on the move.

===Generation I===

{{typebattle

|type=Normal

|noeffect1=Ghost

|resisted1=Rock

|unaffected1=Ghost

}}

===Generation II onwards===

The Normal [[type]] is tied with the {{t|Electric}} type for the fewest defensive weaknesses, but with no resistances and one immunity, it is also tied with {{t|Ice}} as the least resistant type. Many Normal-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a secondary type mitigate their weakness with the secondary type (as with {{t|Flying}}, the type most commonly paired with Normal), leaving them with only the weaknesses of their secondary type.

Normal-type Pokémon, on average, have the lowest {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} of all Pokémon and of fully [[evolution|evolved]] Pokémon.

The Normal type is the only type that is not super effective against any other type.

The combination of Normal and {{type|Ground}} [[moves]] provides good neutral coverage, with only five type combinations resisting both, because Ground covers both of the types that resist Normal. Their inability to hit {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon can be nullified by using {{m|Foresight}}, {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, or by Pokémon with the [[Ability]] {{a|Scrappy}}. In these cases, it will provide unresisted coverage when paired with {{type|Fighting}} moves (excluding Pokémon with {{a|Wonder Guard}}).

On average, fully evolved Pokémon with the Normal type have the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} of all types. <!--As of Gen VII-->

===Contest properties===

When used in contests, Normal-[[type]] [[move]]s do not favor a particular [[contest condition]]. However, the Normal type has the most moves that can [[Jamming|jam]].

As of [[Generation VIII]], there are 115 {{cat|Normal-type Pokémon}} or 12.9% of all {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, making it the second most common type after {{t|Water}}.
