All 92 Bug-Type Pokémon

About Bug-type Pokémon

Bug has the lowest average base stat total of any type, and only one legendary or mythical Pokémon among its 92. Its matchups have been rewritten over time: in Generation 1, Bug and Poison were super effective against each other, and Generation 2 changed Bug moves to not very effective against Poison. Today Bug moves hit Grass, Psychic, and Dark super effectively.

The generator above draws only from Pokémon with Bug as one of their types, dual types included.
