    I do not know how many people know this, but if you want to see what Hidden Power type your Pokemon has instantly without using inaccurate calculators there is a guy in the Veilstone Game Corner Prize Exchange that will instantly tell you what Hidden Power type your Pokemon has. I do not know if this is in D/P but I am playing Platinum and I just found this.

    P.S. Figures.. my Jolteon has HP Electric..

    That dude is really cool, as I now know that my deadliest Pokemon just got a whole lot deadlier.

    That's really good to know. It will help me with an IV calculator I use, too.

    I was testing out my friend's Platinum out, and his Mewtwo (Pal Parked) has HP Dark, his Ho-oh has HP Water and his Mew has HP Typeless. Wow, perfect. [/sar]

    By typeless, you mean the
    "???" thing with curse? wow. That's neat.

    Technically, it can't be typeless, due to how the move works. Maybe it's hacked, and the man is refusing to tell you its actual HP type?

    Heh, on monotype challenge (fighting), I got a Meditite with HP Ground. It is SUCH a big help, although Meditite sucks. :\

    Oh hey Haza! How have things been with you while I was gone? =D

    On Topic: I have heard of a Pokemon having a HP ???. What happens when you use it in battle though? Also, wouldn't it suck for your Pokemon to have HP Normal? What type of Pokemon cannot learn a Normal-type move?

    Those are lies. You can't get HP ??? or even HP Normal for that matter. If you were to use a ??? type move though, it would just deal normal damage since it has no weaknesses or resistances. Also, all Pokemon that have access to TM moves can learn Hidden Power and have access to normal type moves; Return and Frustration.
