Aniimo Type Chart - Elements & Spatial Counters

Aniimo Type Chart

9 elements, 3 damage multipliers, plus the 4-way Spatial Counter loop. Current for Version 1.1 (released Sep 23, 2026, no element changes). Compiled September 2026 from the guide sites listed at the bottom. Patches can change this, so check again if a matchup doesn't behave as listed.

Multipliers: 1.6x Excellent 1x Normal 0.625x Bad (resisted). There are no immunities. Hitting a weakness does about 2.6x the damage of hitting a resist. Each element resists itself, except Dark: Dark hits Dark for a neutral 1x.

Fire	Grass, Ice	Fire, Water, Earth, Light	Water, Earth	Fire, Grass, Ice
Water	Fire, Earth	Water, Grass, Ice, Light	Grass, Lightning, Ice	Fire, Water, Earth, Dark

Light	Wind, Dark	Lightning, Light	Dark	Fire, Water, Grass, Light
Dark	Grass, Lightning, Light	Water, Wind	Wind, Light	Earth (Dark vs Dark is 1x)

Some guides and in-game text call these elements by other names: Light = Holy, Earth = Ground / Rock, Lightning = Electric.

Quick tips

Wind, Light and Dark are resisted by only two elements each, so they make the safest attackers into mixed teams.
Dark has the best offense: 3 weaknesses to hit, 2 resists, and no mirror penalty.
Fire, Water and Earth are each resisted by 4 elements. Pair them with a coverage partner.
Dual types / Prismana Forms: an Aniimo with two elements takes weaknesses and resistances from both (for example, Glacy is Water/Ice normally and Holy/Water in Prismana Form, which changes its matchups). No official source says exactly how the two multipliers combine, so treat double weaknesses as "very good" rather than a fixed number.

Spatial Counters (movement types)

Rangedbeats Flybeats Poundbeats Tunnelbeats Ranged

Ranged vs Fly: flyers give up cover and are exposed to projectiles and anti-air.
Fly vs Pound: airborne Aniimo avoid ground slams and shockwaves.
Pound vs Tunnel: Pound skills reach burrowed targets, do much more damage, and can launch them out of the ground.
Tunnel vs Ranged: burrowing uses stamina and breaks line of sight, so ranged attacks can't target you.

This loop sits on top of the element chart. Guides don't publish exact numbers for spatial bonuses.

Notes on contested cells

Dashed cells show where one guide disagrees with the rest. Game8, AllThings.How, VGC and AniiDex all match the grid above. Games.gg instead lists Ice > Wind, Dark > Fire (not Lightning), Earth > Lightning (not Fire), and Wind resisting Grass. AniiDex's own matchup table confirms the majority values (Dark vs Lightning 1.6x, Earth vs Fire 1.6x, Ice vs Wind 1x, Grass vs Wind 1x). If you see different results in combat, the in-game numbers are correct.
