But this nature is obviously supposed to be identical to the games\' ElementalRockPaperScissors, as the characters mention it regularly. Mistakes, like the one with Rock type in the first season don\'t change that(again assuming this wasn\'t a dub error). Now, adapting the turn based combat from the games into real time combat in the anime means that there will be thing in the anime that you can\'t do in the games, but that isn\'t the problem. The problem is that the anime sometimes ignores the rule that it established just because the plot demands it. In other words, Pikachu\'s electric attacks damaging Blaine\'s Rhydon because Pikachu attacked the horn or Brock\'s Geodude and Onix because Pikachu was supercharged is fine. Plusle and Minun\'s electric attacks damaging Dawn\'s Mamoswine for no apparent reason is not. And it\'s not just immunities, though those stick out the most. How many times were Pokemon in good shape, sometimes never taking a single hit before, defeated by attack they\'re supposed to resist, or even doubly resist? How many times Pokemon shurged off multiple super effective attacks(though that is probably more of a [[TheWorfBarrage Worf Barrage]])? That said, those aren\'t really rules, maybe we need another trope(or maybe a new one) to describe it?
