what pokemon type beats water

The Pokémon types that beat Water are Electric and Grass. Water-type Pokémon are weak to those two types, so they deal super effective damage.

Quick answer

• Electric : A very common counter to Water.
• Grass : Also super effective against Water.
• Special note : Some Water Pokémon with a dual type may change their matchups, but these are the standard weaknesses.
