🛡 TEAM PLANNER
Pokémon team planner.
Build and analyze your Pokémon team with type coverage, speed tiers, EV suggestions, a Tera type optimizer and a role checklist.
Common questions
What does the defensive rating measure?
It starts at 100 and loses points for every type that hits more of your team super effectively than your team resists, with extra penalties for 4x weaknesses and types that hit three or more members.
How are speed tiers calculated?
Speed is a level 100 stat from your EVs, IVs and nature, then adjusted for Choice Scarf, weather abilities, Tailwind and paralysis. Trick Room reverses the order.
What does the Tera type optimizer suggest?
For each member it tests all 18 Tera types and shows the one that most improves your team's defensive rating, plus which weaknesses it fixes and which it opens up.
Can I use my Showdown team?
Yes. Open Import / export team, paste your team and press Import. Export gives you the same format back. Your team also saves in this browser.
About Pokémon Team Planning
Type defense and coverage
A good team does not share the same weaknesses. The type defense grid adds up how many members are weak or resistant to each of the 18 attacking types, and the defensive rating turns that into one score. The coverage panel does the same for your attacking moves.
Speed tiers, EVs and Tera types
Speed decides who moves first. The speed panel includes Choice Scarf, weather abilities, Tailwind, paralysis and Trick Room. The EV panel suggests a common spread for each role, and the Tera optimizer tests every Tera type to find the one that most improves your defence.
Roles and sharing
The checklist shows which roles your team covers: hazards, recovery, pivots, setup, wallbreakers and walls. Import or export in Showdown format, or share a link. To start from a random team, use the team generator.
