Frequently asked questions

What is a Pokemon team builder?

A Pokemon team builder is a planning tool that lets you choose Pokemon, assign types, and check whether the team has balanced coverage and manageable weaknesses.

How does this Pokemon team planner score a team?

The score combines offensive type coverage, team size, type variety, and stacked defensive weaknesses to give a quick balance estimate.

Does this include every individual Pokemon move?

No. This free version focuses on type coverage and weakness planning, which is the fastest way to catch major team-building issues.

Can I use this for casual Pokemon games?

Yes. It is designed for casual players who want a simple way to plan a balanced in-game team before choosing moves and items.

What makes a balanced Pokemon team?

A balanced Pokemon team covers many opposing types, avoids too many shared weaknesses, and mixes roles so one matchup does not overwhelm the whole team.
