Element Type Effectiveness Chart

All 9 element types, their strengths, and weaknesses

Damage Multipliers: Super effective attacks deal 1.5x damage. Not-very-effective attacks deal 0.5x damage. Same-type attacks against a Pal of that type deal reduced damage. Dual-type Pals can cancel out weaknesses if their types counter each other.

Detailed Type Cards

Fire

✓ Strong against: Grass, Ice

✗ Weak to: Water

The only type with 2 strengths. Excellent throughout the entire game — Grass early, Ice late. Fire Pals also handle Kindling at base (smelting, cooking).

Water

✓ Strong against: Fire

✗ Weak to: Electric

Essential for base farming — Watering Pals irrigate crops and power the Crusher and Mill.

Grass

✓ Strong against: Ground

✗ Weak to: Fire

Grass Pals typically have Planting and Medicine Production skills for base work.

Electric

✓ Strong against: Water

✗ Weak to: Ground

Electric Pals power generators and electrical devices at your base.

Ice

✓ Strong against: Dragon

✗ Weak to: Fire

Ice Pals provide Cooling for food preservation and egg incubation.

Ground

✓ Strong against: Electric

✗ Weak to: Grass

Many Ground Pals excel at Mining and Lumbering tasks.

Dragon

✓ Strong against: Dark

✗ Weak to: Ice

Dragon Pals tend to have excellent stats. Dragon/Fire types (like Jormuntide Ignis) cancel the Ice weakness.

Dark

✓ Strong against: Neutral

✗ Weak to: Dragon

Dark Pals are commonly found at night. Strong against the many Neutral Pals in the game.

Neutral

✓ Strong against: Nothing

✗ Weak to: Dark

The only type with no advantages. Avoid using Neutral Pals for type advantage battles.

Dual-Type Mechanics

Dual-type Pals have two strengths and weaknesses. When a type would be both strong and weak against a dual-type Pal, the effects cancel out for neutral damage. Examples:

Penking (Water/Ice) — takes neutral Fire damage (Water resists, Ice is weak)
Gumoss (Ground/Grass) — takes neutral Grass damage (Ground is weak, Grass resists)
Jormuntide Ignis (Dragon/Fire) — takes neutral Ice damage (Dragon is weak, Fire resists)

Best Types Overall

Type	Why It's Strong
Fire	2 strengths (Grass + Ice), only 1 weakness. Consistently useful early to late game. Also handles Kindling at base.
Dragon	Excellent base stats, strong against Dark (common at night). Dragon/Fire combos negate the Ice weakness.
Water	Strong against Fire (common enemy type). Water Pals are essential for base farming via Watering.
