Electric-type Pokémon are weak only to Ground-type moves. Ground attacks deal super effective damage against Electric types because electricity is grounded to prevent it from causing harm, making Ground the sole real weakness of Electric types
. Defensively, Electric types resist Flying and Electric moves, and often Steel moves as well, but these resistances are less impactful compared to their single Ground weakness
. No other type has a weakness to Electric beyond Ground, and Electric types do not have multiple weaknesses. In summary:
- Electric-type weakness: Ground-type moves (super effective)
- Electric-type resistances: Flying, Electric, and sometimes Steel-type moves
- No other weaknesses besides Ground
This makes Electric types unique in having only one type they are weak against
