Normal type Pokemon tend to have very high hit points compared to other Pokemon but the rest of their stats rank relatively low.

Use a ghost type Pokemon to take zero damage from an opponent's normal type attacks. Keep in mind that normal types are also immune to ghost type attacks!
Use Pokemon of these types to take half damage from an opponent's normal type attacks. It's not very effective.
These Pokemon learn super effective attacks or have useful resistances (or both!)
