>>44910667GF didn't make the split to make any mon viable. They did it because pokemon, like every other rpg, is a creativity tool. You want this ghost to be a special attacker? Well here's some effective ghost STAB! You want this electric type to be a physical attacker? Well here's some physical electric STAB! The split, like held items, is a tool to add more customizability to pokemon. Ttar was OU before the Choice Band or resistance berries but it's not like adding them was a bad thing. Autist.
