Does the Iron Ball . . .

Question

The Iron Ball makes Flying & Levitating Pokemon susceptible to Ground-type moves, right? Does it reduce/remove the holder's weakness to moves that are super effective to Flying?

Answer 1

The Pokemon still keeps its Flying type, it just loses immunity to Ground. So (for example) a Staraptor with Iron Ball will still be hit super-effectively by (for another example) Thunderbolt.

if that mon had for example electric secondary typing would it be super effective or would it just be normal effectiveness?
