Ability: Strong Presence Effect: On switch-in , type matchups are ignored.
Possible candidates: "duelists", "swordsman" or "honored" mons, like Gallade, Keldeo, Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizion, Scizor, Escavalier, And mons that create an atmosphere of some sort, like Celebi( for being an forest spirit), Ferrothorn ( for being an ABERRATION of nature), future fakemons.
Reason behind this idea: i was bored, and this is what i could think of. Its more of an 4fun ability than a usable one, really.

While this is a cool idea, the Pokemon you listed enjoy having type matchups while already having great abilities.

So, Etão, Entoces....some bright ideas? maybe changing the name to give it to more mons?

So nothing is super effective or not very effective? This seems... interesting at the very least, but I feel like it'd be more of a disadvantage a lot of the time. Example: Terrakion has this ability active and uses close combat to do damage, but your opponent switches in Ferrothorn, knowing the damage won't be doubled. Also, how does this affect immunities?

immunities? they're ignored too. My strategies when making this was to make mons with HORRIBLE typings maybe get a chance. (looking at you, celebi. Really, 4x damage from U-turn?) AND, its a free setup, since everything cant deal much damage anyway.

But... why would Celebi get this move? Or Ferrothorn? Really this only makes sense on fighting or "righteous" pokemon... I feel like this should be reworked, somehow.

Maybe......instead of Fair Fight, the name could be reworked to something like Presence, so more mons can have it? It would make sense with the legendaries like the three musketeers, celebi (since hes the spirit of nature and all)... But ferrothorn....yeah, gotta need a new name. Also, i was thinking of just having the effect on switch-in rather than being active. so, what you think?

Having it only on switch in could work, but it'd be very similar to Temponae's Safety Net ability. I like this idea, but I feel like it's not really feasible, unless on a particularly weak Pokemon; possibly usable in double battles.

Just letting you know: Strong Presence was the first name given to Overawe.
