Stop thinking Ice is the worst type because of its shit defenses.
Nobody thought Steel was the worst type in gen V because of its shit offensive capabilities.
The problem is the lack of fast Ice-types. Weavile and Kyurem-Black are disgustingly powerful and you think that Ice is in need of a fucking buff?
The worst type in the game is BUG. It's resisted by EIGHT! FUCKING! TYPES! The only good Bug-types are good because of other factors that have nothing to do with being Bug-type! Uber-stats and an extremely huge movepool, STAB Technician BP and STAB momentum (U-Turn isn't useful because it's Bug-type, it's useful because it's a move that gives you momentum and has no immunities. If it was any other type that had no immunities - say, Dark - it would be used just as much), a move that boosts three stats at once, Speed Boost. Remove those traits from those Bugs and they're straight to RU at best. Outclassed defensively by Flying and does nothing notable offensively, most powerful moves are 80BP and one that misses half of the time with terrible distribution among its own typing, worst BSTs among its fully evolved Pokémon, weak to Stealth Rock.
I'm tired of uninformed /vp/ anons who think that the vast amount of shitty Ice types means that Ice the worst type. It's not. It just doesn't have any Pokémon that are good. Weavile is one of the only examples of Ice-types done right. The type is fine, the available Pokémon are the problem.
