>>56299424Explicitly mentioning stats is dumb. Using words like strength instead of Attack, or agility instead of Speed, is better.
But talking about type advantages and disadvantages is fine. It's a core part of how the Pokemon universe works, and it's relevant for every single battle, so it would be weird to ignore it.
>>56299626Are you suggesting "He was at a type disadvantage" is bad wording? I see no problem with it. That's definitely a term that would be used in-universe, and it's clear and concise for readers to understand.
