What does 'weakness' mean on a Pokemon card?
Weakness on a Pokemon card essentially doubles the damage from attacks of a certain type. If your card shows a weakness to Water, brace yourself when Squirtles come splashing.

It's just a fancy way of saying, 'This Pokemon's gonna have a bad day if it gets hit by a specific type of attack.' Remember, it鈥檚 not just about having strong Pokemon, but knowing their weaknesses too.
Honestly, weakness on a Pokemon card isn鈥檛 that big of a deal. Just play smart and keep an eye on matchups, and you'll be fine.
Weakness on a Pokemon card is like kryptonite for Superman. It means if your Pokemon gets hit by an attack of the type it's weak against, it takes more damage than usual. For example, if your Fire-type Charizard has a weakness to Water, a Water attack will hit harder and potentially knock it out faster. It's all about strategy, so pay attention to those symbols!
