I used a Normal-type move, Return, and it wasn't very effective...
Next turn I used another Normal-type move, Hidden Power, and it was super effective.
(these were both used on Lunatone)
Is it because Emboar is a Fighting-type and I used Hidden Power on a Psychic?

I'm not good with super/not very effective.

Hidden Power can be any type, besides Normal. Return wasn't effective because it was Normal. Your Hidden Power was: Water, Dark, Ghost, Grass, or Bug type. That's why.

Return Is Normal.
Return Will Always Be Normal. It Cannot Change Types.


Hidden Power CAN Change Types.
To Be Super Effective Against Lunatone
Your Hidden Power Turned Into Either A
Bug, Ghost, Or Dark Type Move.
Do You See?
