Water/Bug damage taken

1×	Normal, Fire, Grass, Poison, Psychic, Bug, Ghost, Dragon, Dark, Fairy
½×	Water, Ice, Fighting, Ground, Steel

Best types to use against Water/Bug

To beat a Water/Bug Pokémon, use Electric, Flying and Rock moves: they deal 2× damage. Do not waste turns on Water (½×), Ice (½×), Fighting (½×), Ground (½×) and Steel (½×).

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

Going the other way, Water and Bug moves between them hit Fire, Grass, Ground, Psychic, Rock and Dark super effectively.

6 Pokémon have the Water/Bug typing: 5 species and 1 alternate form, first appearing in Generation 3 and spanning 2 generations to Generation 7.

The highest base stat total is Golisopod with 530; the average across the group is 368.

Abilities that change Water/Bug matchups

Some Water/Bug Pokémon have an ability that overrides the type chart. These are the ones that do:

Water Absorb turns Water moves into healing (Water ½× to 0×). Held by Dewpider (hidden ability), Araquanid (hidden ability), Totem Araquanid (hidden ability).
Water Bubble halves damage from Fire moves (Fire 1× to ½×). Held by Dewpider, Araquanid, Totem Araquanid.
