Recommended Videos

Temtem is about collecting creatures and battling with them. Types are an essential aspect of the game, and all Temtem will have a type making them weak or strong against other types. Knowing these types to counter each other is essential when making your squad or taking on a specific battle.

Temtem Types

There are twelve different types in the game:

  • Crystal
  • Digital
  • Earth
  • Electric
  • Fire
  • Melee
  • Mental
  • Nature
  • Neutral
  • Toxic
  • Water
  • Wind
Temtem Strengths and Weaknesses

The critical thing to know about strengths and weaknesses is they can differ depending on whether we are discussing attacking or defending. All Temtem have other Temtem types they are effective or ineffective against. They will also take less, or more, damage depending on the ability type used against them. This mechanic can be a little confusing, so we listed all types and how they interact with others below.

Keep in mind, Temtem can learn new abilities and attacks, so just because you are facing a Wind-Type doesn’t mean that all their attacks will be Wind-Type.

For a quick reference on how the types interact, you can use the below chart, which was made by Redditor Asura64.
