## Best types to use against Fire/Poison

To beat a Fire/Poison Pokémon, use Ground moves: it deals 4× damage. Water, Psychic and Rock moves also hit for 2×. Do not waste turns on Grass (¼×), Bug (¼×), Fairy (¼×), Fire (½×) and Ice (½×).

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

Going the other way, Fire and Poison moves between them hit Grass, Ice, Bug, Steel and Fairy super effectively, but Rock takes reduced or no damage from both.
