* If one or more types are removed through {{m|Burn Up}}, {{m|Double Shock}}, or {{m|Roost}}, and the Pokémon has no more types left, it will become {{DL|Type|typeless}}. While Roost's effect on the user's type only last for the rest of the turn, the effect of Burn Up and Double Shock last until the user is switched out, faints, or the battle ends.

Any [[status condition]]s the Pokémon already has are not influenced by the type change. For instance, the Pokémon will remain {{status|poison}}ed after becoming a {{t|Poison}} or {{t|Steel}} type, even though those types cannot be naturally poisoned without {{a|Corrosion}}. Similarly, if an originally Poison or Steel type Pokémon loses these types, becomes poisoned, and is switched out, faints, or the battle ends, it will recover its original types, but (if not fainted) will remain poisoned.

If a Pokémon copies the types of another one (by using {{m|Reflect Type}}, {{m|Transform}}, or {{m|Conversion}} in [[Generation I]] only, or via {{a|Imposter}}), the target's type changes are copied as well. If the target is currently typeless, the user will become a pure {{t|Normal}} type. However, if the target was typeless and then gained a type via {{m|Forest's Curse}} or {{m|Trick-or-Treat}}, the user will have two types: Normal and the added one.
