3rd Gen Move help pleash

[El Gofre]

Hi all,
Im a 3rd gen noob and have recently restarted pokemon emerald. I was wondering if someone could tell me the physical/special weighting of attack types, it would be much appreciated :)

i didnt understand that, youd have to rephrase that.

I meant as in which type attacks are physical and which are special? For example, I know that fight moves are phys and psychics are not, but i need to know the lot.

a major difference is that hyper beam is physical. yeah thats weird ill let you know if i can remember more.

Special attack types:

I think that list is right. One more thing, I think Ice Punch, Fire Punch and Thunder Punch are physical, even though their types aren't. You're not going to have special punches, are you? :):P
