Ok so say I were in this position. I am playing Donphan PLS with a Jolteon AOR on the bench to help Donphan hit for lightning weakness and my opponent is playing an Yveltal EX deck. I use Spinning Turn for 40 damage. Then weakness and resistance go through. Jolteon adds the Lightning type to Donphan, making Yveltal both weak to and resistant against Donphan. So my question is this: If Donphan is both lightning and fighting type, in what order do weakness and resistance take effect? If it were weakness and then resistance, the damage would go through as (40*2)-20 = 60. If it were resistance and then weakness, it would go through as (40-20)*2 = 40. As you could imagine this could be a game altering effect.

Thanks for the feedback!
