Groudon is a pure Ground-type Pokémon, so it is weak to Grass, Ice, and Water-type moves.

Type weaknesses

  • Grass-type moves deal super-effective damage to Groudon.
  • Ice-type moves also hit Groudon super-effectively.
  • Water-type moves are super-effective as well and are some of the most common counters.

Simple rule to remember

If you are fighting Groudon, bring strong attackers with:

  • Powerful Water moves (like Surf or Hydro Pump).
  • Strong Grass moves (like Leaf Blade or Frenzy Plant).
  • Heavy-hitting Ice moves (like Ice Beam or Blizzard).

These types all take advantage of Groudon’s Ground typing and will consistently hit it for super-effective damage.
