{{type|Fighting}}-[[Types|type]] [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]] learn specifically labelled fighting melee attacks, such as punches and kicks. Many fighting type Pokémon resemble humans in some way. Fighting types are often associated with martial arts, athletics, and physical training. They usually focus on attack, rather than defense. The Fighting type is the only type that has not been paired with a {{type|Flying}}-type in a Pokémon. Fighting-types are resistant to {{type|Bug}}-types. 
 
  +
The {{Nihongo|{{type|Fighting}} [[Types|type]]|かくとうタイプ|Kakutou taipu}} is one of the eighteen [[Pokémon Types|Pokémon elemental types]].
   
  +
Pokémon of this type are specialists in melee attacks, such as punches and kicks. It could be said that they're the opposite to {{type|Psychic}}-type Pokémon because while Pokémon of that type depend primarily on special attacks, Pokémon of the {{type|Fighting}} type depend mostly on physical attacks. In particular, every {{type|Fighting}}-type attack introduced before Generation IV remained a physical attack, with special {{type|Fighting}} attacks only being introduced from Generation IV onwards.
==Abilities of Fighting Pokémon==
 
   
  +
Most {{type|Fighting}}-type Pokémon have a human-like body shape because they represent practitioners of various martial arts, which tend to be real-world humans. Some {{type|Fighting}}-type Pokémon are represented by looking like fighters ([[Machamp]] looks like a bodybuilder and [[Crabrawler]] looks like a French-wrestler) while other are represented by being based on a certain type of fighting style ([[Hitmontop]] is based on capoeira fighting and [[Gallade]] is based on sword-fighting). A considerable number of {{Type|Fighting}}-type Pokémon are predominantly or exclusively male. They can also be represented by simply just having incredible strength (such Pokémon such as [[Bewear]], [[Pangoro]], [[Crabominable]], [[Conkeldurr]] and others have this).
   
  +
{{type|Fighting}}-type Pokémon have varied ways to evolve as this represents a fighter going on a journey to get stronger and find out who he/she is supposed to be.

Type Fighting
Type Fighting HOME

The Fighting type (Japanese: かくとうタイプ, HepburnKakutou taipu) is one of the eighteen Pokémon elemental types.

Pokémon of this type are specialists in melee attacks, such as punches and kicks. It could be said that they're the opposite to Psychic-type Pokémon because while Pokémon of that type depend primarily on special attacks, Pokémon of the Fighting type depend mostly on physical attacks. In particular, every Fighting-type attack introduced before Generation IV remained a physical attack, with special Fighting attacks only being introduced from Generation IV onwards.

Most Fighting-type Pokémon have a human-like body shape because they represent practitioners of various martial arts, which tend to be real-world humans. Some Fighting-type Pokémon are represented by looking like fighters (Machamp looks like a bodybuilder and Crabrawler looks like a French-wrestler) while other are represented by being based on a certain type of fighting style (Hitmontop is based on capoeira fighting and Gallade is based on sword-fighting). A considerable number of Fighting-type Pokémon are predominantly or exclusively male. They can also be represented by simply just having incredible strength (such Pokémon such as Bewear, Pangoro, Crabominable, Conkeldurr and others have this).

Fighting-type Pokémon have varied ways to evolve as this represents a fighter going on a journey to get stronger and find out who he/she is supposed to be.

Every generation has introduced at least one Fighting-type specialist: Bruno, the second member of the Kanto and Johto Elite Four; Chuck, the fifth Gym Leader of the Johto region; Brawly, the second Hoenn Gym Leader; Maylene, the third Gym Leader of Sinnoh; Marshal, a member of the Unova Elite Four; Korrina, the third Gym Leader of the Kalos region; Hala, the Melemele Island Kahuna of the Alola region, Bea, the fourth Gym Leader of Galar in Pokémon Sword, and Eri the boss of Team Star's Caph Squad in Paldea.
