How do types work in Pokemon Quest?

We know that your team gains bonus Team Strength when including Pokemon of specific type whilst exploring areas weak to that type.

However, each Pokemon has moves with different types too (e.g Growlithe has a normal type and fire type move). What's the mechanics behind move types?

Solution 1:

Move types works as the classic games, they respect the type chart excluding 0x which appears to be not very effective instead of no effect.

Also if the move is the same type as the Pokemon that uses it, the move receives a bonus as confirmed by the in-game tips. A sort of STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus), which in the classic games is a 50% bonus.
