Terms of Service

Last updated: July 22, 2026

These Terms of Service govern your use of typematchup.org and the calculators, charts, guides, and other content provided by TypeMatchup. By accessing the website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please stop using the service.

Reference and Entertainment Use

TypeMatchup is an independent reference and entertainment tool for understanding Pokemon type mechanics. The calculators provide general matchup information based on standard game mechanics. They are not an official battle service, tournament ruling, or substitute for checking the rules of a specific game, generation, or competitive format.

Accuracy and Availability

We work to keep calculations and guides useful and accurate, but we do not guarantee that all content is complete, current, uninterrupted, or error-free. Game updates, alternate forms, abilities, moves, items, Terastallization, format rules, or other mechanics may change a result. You are responsible for verifying information before relying on it in a tournament, purchase, or other decision.

We may update, suspend, remove, or change any part of the website without notice. Access may occasionally be interrupted by maintenance, hosting issues, security events, or circumstances outside our control.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • interfere with the website, servers, security, or normal operation;
  • use automated requests in a way that creates unreasonable load;
  • attempt to gain unauthorized access to systems or data;
  • misrepresent an affiliation with TypeMatchup; or
  • use the service for unlawful, fraudulent, or abusive activity.
