Do you prefer the streamlined Pokémon types or the more nuanced ones?

I'm really enjoying Pokémon TCG Pocket but the simplified Pokémon types are confusing! They've merged them but kept the old type advantages/disadvantages.

For example Geodude used to be Rock. Rock types are weak against Grass and Water types. Geodude is now a Fighting type, and Fighting types are not weak against Grass or Water. Even though Pokémon TCG Pocket has Geodude as Fighting type it's still weak against Grass and Water!

It keeps throwing me off 😱
