Best types to use against Bug/Fairy

To beat a Bug/Fairy Pokémon, use Fire, Poison, Flying, Rock and Steel moves: they deal 2× damage. Do not waste turns on Dragon (0×), Fighting (¼×), Grass (½×), Ground (½×) and Bug (½×).

Bug/Fairy and Fairy/Bug are the same typing: in battle the order of a Pokémon's two types makes no difference, so a Fairy/Bug search lands on this page too.

Going the other way, Bug and Fairy moves between them hit Grass, Fighting, Psychic, Dragon and Dark super effectively, but Fire, Poison and Steel take reduced or no damage from both.

3 Pokémon have the Bug/Fairy typing: 2 species and 1 alternate form, first appearing in Generation 7.

The highest base stat total is Ribombee with 464; the average across the group is 411.
