Takeaway

1.  tool: JSON Parse. does what says on the tin to extract key-value pairs

2. tool: arrange. vertically stack specific columns together (similar to union)

3. sequence: transpose post join if presented with option, as common linking field may be required to match both tables

My solution attached.

 

The order of my pokemon in the final output is not the same as the order in the solution. To fix this I would need to include the pokemon number so I could resort the data to its original sort order.

Fun challenge! Although I'm not sure why Misty didn't make the cut on the OG output on the start file... she qualifies according to my flow! challenge 353 - alteryx flow.jpg

Maybe my best challenge yet. However, it maybe should have been mentioned we were looking for a combination of 8 distinct types not just types alone. Since one Pokémon could have one or two types attributed. Still challenge accepted.
