Ground-type Pokemon Coloring Pages
Welcome to our Ground-type Pokémon coloring pages!
Ground Pokémon are tied to the earth and underground environments, with designs ranging from burrowing creatures to rock-based beasts. Their earthy tones and solid forms make them fun and dynamic to color.
Ground-types are strong against Fire-, Electric-, Poison-, Rock-, and Steel-type Pokémon, but they are weak against Water-, Ice-, and Grass-type moves. Some Ground Pokémon have special abilities like Sand Veil, which boosts evasion in a sandstorm, or Arena Trap, which can prevent opponents from fleeing, giving them unique tactical options.

Ground-type Pokémon are among the strongest offensively, being super-effective against five other types--just like Fighting-types. Moves like Earthquake are powerful and accurate, making Ground-types a solid choice in battles.
In early generations, many Ground-type Pokémon were also Rock-type, giving them significant disadvantages (4× weakness) to Grass and Water moves. Most newer Ground-types avoid this dual-typing, making them more versatile and durable in battle.
In Generations 1–3, all Ground-type moves were categorized as Physical.
Effects of the Ground type
- Ground-type Pokémon do not take damage during a sandstorm.
- Ground-type moves do not affect Flying-types, Pokémon with Levitate, those under Magnet Rise or Telekinesis, or Pokémon holding an Air Balloon.
- However, Ground-type moves can hit these Pokémon if they are affected by Gravity, Ingrain, Roost, Smack Down, Thousand Arrows, or holding an Iron Ball.
- The Sand Force ability increases the power of Ground-type moves by 30% during a sandstorm.
- Pokémon with the Earth Eater ability heal ¼ of their maximum HP when hit by a Ground-type move.
- Holding an Earth Plate or Soft Sand increases the power of Ground-type moves by 20%.
- Holding a Ground Gem boosts the power of a Ground-type move by 30%, and the gem is then consumed.
- The Shuca Berry, when held, neutralizes a super-effective Ground-type move.
