Loomian Legacy Type Chart Tool

The Type Chart Tool page is a lookup-first companion to the full Type Chart guide on this wiki. Keep it open while you battle wild Loomians on Roria routes, prep Battle Theatre Walkthrough teams, or draft ranked cores from PvP Team Building. The guide explains dual-type math and study methods; this tool compresses recurring questions into scannable sections you can answer in seconds between turns.

Types govern every fight in Loomian Legacy — STAB bonuses, super-effective doubles, resist halves, and dual-type multiplication decide whether you stay in or switch. Online multiplayer PvP punishes players who guess. Story theatres punish teams with one-theme coverage. This page bridges both use cases without replacing narrative tutorials on Guides Hub.

Quick effectiveness rules

Use these defaults unless in-game prompts say otherwise after a patch from Updates Hub:

• Super effective — Typically 2× damage when the move type hits a weak defensive type
• Not very effective — Typically 0.5× when the defender resists
• Dual-type defenders — Multiply modifiers from both typings; double weakness can reach 4× incoming
• STAB — Same-type attack bonus on matching move and user type, stacking with effectiveness
• Move type ≠ species type — Judge the move about to hit, not only the icon on the species

When unsure, throw a low-risk move once and read the battle text effectiveness label before committing your sweeper.

Offensive lookup — common attack types

Move type	Usually strong vs	Usually weak vs	Notes
Fire	Plant, Metal	Water, Fire	Heiwa theatre theme
Water	Fire, Earth	Plant, Water	Atlanthian doubles
Plant	Water, Earth	Fire, Air	Early routes
Electric	Air, Water	Earth, Electric	Speed checks
Earth	Fire, Electric	Air, Plant	Sepharite helper
Light	Dark	Light	Silvent theme
Dark	Light	Dark	Silvent theme
Metal	Fairy-like targets*, Ice-like targets*	Fire, Earth	Sepharite theme
Cyber	Varies by species	Often resists classic hits	Verify in battle
Tidal	Water-adjacent defenders	Tidal resist pairs	Atlanthian doubles

*Metal matchups include Roria-specific edges — confirm unusual dual types on Type Chart guide after balance updates.

Defensive lookup — building resist slots

When assembling a six-mon story or PvP box, assign one primary resist per major threat type:

Threat you fear	Slot in a defender that	Tool tip
Fire spam	Resists Fire STAB	Water or Earth body
Water doubles	Resists Water and Tidal spread	Dual resist or pivot
Dark Silvent teams	Resists Dark	Light or bulk Dark
Metal Sepharite	Resists or immune Metal lines	Earth or specialized counter
Fast Electric	Grounded or Earth resist	Earth typing or bulk

Cross-link Story Tier List when choosing which resist belongs in which theatre run.

Dual-type multiplication cheat sheet

Examples of how two typings combine on defense:

1. Weak + weak — Same move super effective on both → often 4× damage (fragile)
2. Weak + resist — Multipliers cancel partially → often 1× neutral overall
3. Resist + resist — Can reach 0.25× — wall slot
4. Immune interactions — If applicable in current patch, treat as hard counter

Dual-type attackers need only one super-effective typing on the defender to deal elevated damage in most cases — plan coverage moves, not only STAB.

Theatre quick-select table

Theatre	Priority typings to slot	Tool action
Silvent	Light + Dark answers	Open resist rows for both
Heiwa	Water + Earth vs Fire	Stack two Fire checks
Sepharite	Metal + Cyber counters	Backtrack route table in guide
Atlanthian	Water + Tidal doubles	Pair two active resist typings

Full puzzle and leader notes stay on Battle Theatre Walkthrough — this table is battle typing only.

PvP coverage checklist

Before ranked sessions, tick five meta typings (adjust seasonally):

• Fire check in party or box
• Water check
• Dark or Light answer (Silvent meta carryover)
• Metal or Cyber answer
• Speed control or priority option

Pair with Tier List Hub and Personality and UP tool so typings are not the only weak link.

Capture team typings

Gleaming Hunting and How to Catch Loomians sessions need safe catchers:

• Resist the wild species STAB while you Spare to 1 HP
• Status moves without killing on accident
• Optional False Swipe equivalent if your species learns it

Use this tool to pick a catcher before activating LoomiBoosts from LoomiBoosts planner.

When to read the full guide instead

Switch to Type Chart guide when you need:

• Narrative explanations for new trainers
• Study methods and long-form dual-type examples
• Patch-sensitive Metal, Cyber, and Tidal edge cases
• FAQ context for FAQs and structured learning paths

Tool maintenance note

Llama Train Studio balance passes can retune rare type edges. After announcements on Wiki Links Hub, rerun one in-game test battle if a tool row feels wrong — effectiveness prompts beat memory.
