How we ranked each type
Each list filters the recorded game roster to partners that carry the type, then sorts by the combined base-stat score. It does not include move pools, held items, permanent upgrades or player skill. “Best” here means the best starting stat profile within the type, not a measured win rate.
For the full cross-type ranking, use the 966-Pokémon tier list. For attack and defense matchups, open the individual type pages.
