So now that Steel no longer reists dark and ghost, the hype to try out this guy is suddenly less...

It's just two more weaknesses. You should all know that weaknesses don't make a Pokemon bad.
It's a sword anyway, I'm pretty sure it's defenses would be worthless if Steel wasn't nerfed.

It doesn't sound that bad still. I think it has 3 immunities and 9 resistances compared to what 4 weaknesses?

but steel if SE against fairy and ghost is looking to be an amazing offensive type this gen, so maybe he will be a sweeper and be really good.
I hope so.

It's still Ghost, the best type in the game by far. And don't forget Ghost/Steel as attacking types are unresisted except for Pyroar.

It's already just a floating sword. Why would anyone want to use it in the first place?

Maybe if its other features stood out more that wouldn't be the case, but it is so boring.

at least they used to be creative with the inanimate objects they made into pokemon, like bells or magnets, but now they are pulling things out of the rpg handbook.

Accountable for your opinion? Nah, I have never liked this way of thinking. Just because you didn't ever want to see it doesn't mean it everyone else didn't as well. Things don't just automatically become bad when someone claims they are. For something like this it depends heavily on your own perspective.

what moves is it going to have to abuse this. Stone edge comes to mind, I guess, so does cross chop (usually pertains to hands in pokemon but could make sense for a sword). Im thinking a signature low accuracy physical steel move with some real base power is something to expect.

you know what? Your right. This somewhat creative, new pokemon is dumb and therefore the game isnt worth playing, and lifes not worth living. You should just kill yourself because your butthurt is never gonna stop. Go ahead. Kill yourself. heres a knife you can slit your throat with.
Do it. Kill yourself. An hero. The world wont care.

It's not a weakness. It's just that Steel doesn't RESIST Ghost and Dark now. It's not weak to them.

Clarification on what that anon meant:

Ghost is weak to Dark and Ghost.
Steel resists Dark and Ghost
Honedge would be hit neutrally by Dark and Ghost.

However, Steel doesn't resist Dark and Ghost anymore, meaning that, since Honedge is still a Ghost, he has 2 weaknesses he wouldn't have had if the type table wasn't changed.
