Why are most darkness type cards weak to grass.

InJeopardy

I have noticed that a hefty amount of darkness type cards are weak to grass even though the pokemon on said cards wouldn't be weak to grass or grass-related types. I shouldn't have to use a grass mon against a zoroark in any situation.

That is because TCG follows different rules.

Grass covers both Grass and Bug types, so it's saying the Dark type is weak to Bug, which is covered by Grass. So now Grass is super effective.

These things go to many card types

Poison can do super effective on Psychic because Poison is under Dark.

Psychic includes Ghost and F@ir1es

Fighting has Ground and Rock types

Water is also Ice

Normal is the symbol for Flying

I could go on and on.

I used to be confused by this too but then I learned what types go where and now it makes sense

I think it needs changed, but this is how it is.

I know why they do it this way. I just disagree with it.
