Type Chart Explained: Counters for All 18 Elements

Overview

There are 18 types in Roco Kingdom: World. The core of battle is using type advantage — dealing 2× damage — or avoiding type resistance — dealing only 0.5× damage. Mastering type matchups allows you to win fights even when you are weaker on paper.

18-Type Matchup Quick Reference Table

The table below clearly shows each type as an attacker — who it hits hard / who resists it — and as a defender — who it resists / who counters it.

**Note:** The Light type is special. In most cases, whether attacking or defending, its damage multiplier is usually **1×** — no advantage and no resistance. However, in certain story scenarios or skill effects, it may ignore all type advantages and disadvantages.

Core Rule: How Damage Multipliers Work

Type advantage directly determines the final damage multiplier. This is the foundation of battle strategy.

Single-Type Matchups

Super effective: Deals 2× damage. Example: Fire-type attacking Grass-type.

Resisted: Deals only 0.5× damage. Example: Water-type attacking Grass-type.

Neutral: Deals normal 1× damage.

Dual-Type Matchups — Multiplication

When the defender has two types, the final damage multiplier is calculated by multiplying the matchup results of both types.

This creates three special cases:

Double Advantage — Damage ×4

The skill is strong against both of the opponent’s types. For example, using a Grass-type skill against a Rock + Ground spirit. The advantages stack, resulting in extremely high damage.

Double Resistance — Damage ×0.25

The skill is resisted by both of the opponent’s types. For example, using a Fire-type skill against a Steel + Rock-type opponent. The damage becomes almost negligible.

Neutralized — Damage ×1

The skill is strong against one type but resisted by the other. For example, using a Fire-type skill against Grass + Flying. Fire counters Grass, but is resisted by Flying, so the final multiplier becomes 2 × 0.5 = 1, which is the same as neutral damage.

Special Type Mechanics You Must Remember

Besides normal type matchups, advanced players should know the following special mechanics.

Divine Types — Divine Fire / Divine Water / Divine Grass

Attack specialization: Divine-type skills deal 2× damage to all non-Divine pets, ignoring normal type matchups.

Defensive cycle: Divine types follow a cycle against each other:

Divine Fire beats Divine Grass
Divine Grass beats Divine Water
Divine Water beats Divine Fire

Mutual Super-Effective Matchups

Some types deal double damage to each other.

Light vs Ghost: Both deal 2× damage to each other.

Psychic vs Demon: Both deal 2× damage to each other.

Dragon Mirror Match

Dragon-type skills also deal 2× damage against Dragon-type pets.

Practical Memory Tips

To make the type system easier to remember, use these core rules:

Natural three-cycle

Fire beats Grass / Ice / Bug / Mechanical
Water beats Fire / Ground / Rock
Grass beats Water / Ground / Rock

What Dragon fears

Dragon is tanky and resists Water, Fire, Grass, Electric, and Flying, but it is weak to Ice, Dragon, and Psychic.

Mechanical type traits

Mechanical is a defensive master. It is only weak to Fire, Fighting, and Ground, but resists most attacks, including Dragon-type attacks.

Normal type weakness

Normal has no offensive advantage against any type, but it is only weak to Fighting and is completely immune to Ghost-type attacks.

Team-Building Advice

When building a team, make sure your types are diverse. In particular, try to cover core offensive types such as:

Fire
Water
Grass
Ice
Dragon

This allows you to switch into a counter spirit when facing different enemies, making battles much easier.
