This one started out as a bit of fun, but ended up evolving into its own resource.
There are two scripts bundled with this resource. The first shows type match-ups for single types, whereas the second shows type match-ups for specific species of Pokémon! This information might be useful for beginner players or if you are reworking the type chart/adding new types to your game.
Features
Here's a gif showing off the single-type match-up script.
Here's a screenshot of the species-specific UI (poor Exeggcutor with all those weaknesses).

The species-specific UI is called using
It's up to you to choose where the player can access these UI. The Pokégear might be a good home for it.
Controls
Press the left/right arrows to move between pages.
Press "Use" to bring up a list that you can scroll through to jump between types/species. By default, this would be C/Space/Enter.
When you've got the list up, press A or S (or whatever you have bound to page up/down) to jump down or up quickly.
Press "Back" to close the UI. By default, this would be X/Esc.
Please let me know if there are any issues/questions either here or via Discord (ThatWelshOne_#3324). I'm always happy to help where I can.

Features
- Scroll through the UI to see type match-ups for each type/species. Even veteran players might learn something!
- The species-specific UI script only lists species in the current region's Pokédex and defaults to the National Pokédex if a regional Pokédex is not defined.
- Press the "Use" button to be able to quickly jump between types/species.
- Easy to customise the background into whatever you like by editing the bg.png graphic.
- Sprite and text positions are agnostic to screen resolution.
