Pokémon: Too Many Types

Game Details:

"Pokémon Too Many Types" is a bizarre masterpiece within the ROM hack community. The creator's core concept was: "What if everything in daily life could be a Pokémon type?" Consequently, in addition to traditional Fire, Water, and Grass, the game introduces dozens of hilarious new types such as Cat, Bread, Internet, Wood, Shiny, Sonic, Anime, Garbage, and even Death. All classic Pokémon in the game have been reassigned these ridiculous type combinations (even including triple-type Pokémon), and the move system has been completely overhauled. Although it looks like a pure parody, the creator actually developed a comprehensive and self-consistent effectiveness chart for these dozens of types, truly testing the player's memory and ability to embrace the chaos.

Game Guide:

The core gameplay lies in "studying the chaotic effectiveness chart" and "finding optimal solutions amidst the confusion."

Pro Tips:

Make good use of the in-game type lookup tools: Since the game adds over 60 types, it is completely unrealistic to rely on rote memory to remember what beats what. Fortunately, the game usually provides a massive "Type Effectiveness Matrix" in the bag or menu, or directly displays effectiveness hints (Super Effective/Not Very Effective) during battle. Before making a move, be sure to take a few extra seconds to check the damage effectiveness of these new types.

Look for game-breaking hybrids: Due to the type shuffle, many otherwise mediocre Pokémon become incredibly tanky "super shields" with numerous immunities after gaining absurd type combinations (such as modded types with excellent resistances). When catching Pokémon in the early game, pay close attention to their type bars. If you find one with types that sound powerful, like "Holy," "Cosmic," or "Anime," prioritize adding them to your team.

Fight chaos with chaos and utilize STAB: Although the type matchups are a headache, the iron rule of "Same Type Attack Bonus (STAB)" still applies. Equip your main Pokémon with moves that match their weird typing. Even against modded Gym Leaders, as long as you can figure out their elemental weaknesses, a "Cat-type" scratch or a "Bread-type" bombardment can deal massive super-effective damage, allowing you to conquer the Indigo Plateau amidst the chaos.
