Best types to use against Water/Steel

To beat a Water/Steel Pokémon, use Electric, Fighting and Ground moves: they deal 2× damage. Do not waste turns on Poison (0×), Ice (¼×), Steel (¼×), Normal (½×) and Water (½×).

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

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

1 Pokémon has the Water/Steel typing, first appearing in Generation 4.

Empoleon is the only Water/Steel Pokémon, with a base stat total of 530.
