Spent way too much time coming up with some pretty challenging (I hope) Pokemon trivia questions. All questions are up to date as of the time of this post, although I certainly could have made a couple of mistakes here and there, so please forgive me if I did. The questions are approximately ordered from easiest to hardest within their respective category. All testing was done on Showdown instead of cart. Try not to cheat, and please post your answers with a spoiler tag.
Questions revolving around Pokemon types
1. This is the only type not utilized by a Paradox Pokemon
2. These two dual type combinations only exist in battle
3. This single typed Pokemon has a dual typed pre-evolution
4. These two Pokemon can turn 4x weaknesses into immunities with their abilities
5. Along with Eevee, this Pokemon may not have any types overlapping after evolving, discounting Pokemon that are able to swap between forms
