Best types to use against Poison/Bug

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

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

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

14 Pokémon have the Poison/Bug typing: 12 species and 2 alternate forms, first appearing in Generation 1 and spanning 5 generations to Generation 5.

The highest base stat total is Mega Scolipede with 585; the average across the group is 364.
