FAQ
Questions
Is this Pokémon team builder free?
Yes. No account, no limits, no paid version.
Which games does it cover?
Every main-series game from Red & Blue to the newest, plus Legends: Arceus and Legends: Z-A. Pick a game and the Pokémon, typings and type chart all match it.
What does “no answer” mean?
An attack type that hits at least one of your Pokémon hard, and that nobody on the team resists. Fix those first.
Does it count moves and abilities?
Yes, if you want. Add up to four attack types or moves per Pokémon, and turn on abilities like Levitate or Flash Fire. You can also paste a Showdown team.
Where is my team saved?
In the link, and in this browser when you press Save. Nothing is sent to a server. Clear saved teams any time.
Is a 4× weakness really that bad?
Yes. It is four times normal damage, and most Pokémon go down in one hit. Keep a teammate that resists it.
