A Type is a special attribute of a Fighter Card which gives it the ability to have an advantage over others. Though Types do not affect all moves, there are many specific ones that single out specific types to have an advantage over. For instance, some moves may deal double damage to Fire-type cards, and if the foe is dueling with a Fire-type card, the move will be twice as powerful.
Just to clarify: Moves do NOT have types. They can only be extra-powerful against other types or have special effects on them, thus giving some cards an advantage over others.
