Naria laid out her supplies and put a nice picture of a Skitty "You can do it!" on the wall. Naria smilled and sat down at the desk, waiting for her class.

Andy walks in.

"Who's the teacher."

"Me." Naria says, and writes her name on the chalkboard.

Travis bursts into the classroom, panting a lot.

"He-Hel-Hello"Travis manages, taking a seat at a desk. He checks the clock and sees he made it within 8 seconds.

That was too close

Sam jumps in though the window into the classroom and notices everyone inside.

"Hello peoples!"

Andy ignores Sam's window leap.

"Can we just start the class?"

Jeff sneaks outta his backpack pudding and bacon *whispers* her you go Pudding and for me....Starts eating his bacon

"Okay Class. Today we will explain one of the basic battling ways."
Lesson 1
Type Trumphing

Pokemon battling is about one thing, trumping opponent types. Like Grass is beaten by fire. If your opponent pulls out...say, a Chikorita, you should pull out a Cyndaquil.
Fire > Grass
Water > Fire
Grass > Water
Ghost > All types exept psycic

QUIZ TIME!
Your battling opponent pulls out a Squirtle. The pokemon you have on hand are a Turtwig, a Pikachu, Charmander, and Ghost.

ANSWER
Ghost would be invincable to the attacks, but would not cause much damage. The answer is Turtwig.

OO I KNOW TURTWIG -thinks- too easy

Even though you said Turtwig was the answer yourself, Turtwig OR Pikachu would be equally effective against a Squirtle. . .

yeah

'Simple. Say the Ghost was a Gastly. If you had taught it the TM Thunderbolt, it would be effective. But, if we're going basic types, Pikachu or Turtwig would be effective."

Gastly can learn Thunderbolt?
