Now that I've extensively covered most of the Pokemon elements, let's keep the ball rolling and talk about Steel Pokemon and their strengths and weaknesses. This is another archetype that you will often see in any of the games, and it has some of the popular monsters that belong to this element. If you somehow find yourself running a team that includes these buddies, keep reading as we break them down (not literally) below!
Easy ways to remember Pokemon Type Chart
Steel Pokémon are some of the most impressive monsters out there. This includes the likes of Dialga and Aegislash. These monsters had two changes over the different generations of games. When first introduced in the second generation, they were strong against a rock or ice type.
However, when the fifth generation rolled in, the list of strengths for a Steel Pokemon included a Fairy element type. Their strengths now rely on fighting rock, ice, and elf-type Pokémon.
Now, like most Pokémon, steel types come with their own weaknesses. Surprisingly, these elements cover one of the most common elements in any of the mainline Pokémon games. As such, Steel Pokémon are weak against Fighting, Fire, and Ground types. It makes sense, because steel absorbs heat better than anything else out there.
