Why would Ice resist water?

Ever run an icecube under water? It melts incredibly fast.

If anything it should be supereffective against ice.

Might want to give Dark something to be SE against so the Dark-type Pokemon don't suffer too much.
But sure I can deal with that.

Not if it's cold. Water would make ice bigger because the water would freeze on ice and make it bigger.

Ever put a glass of water in a freezer?
Seriously, this argument is always brought up. It could go either way, can we at least make the choice that would balance things for the better?

Hmm, give it SE against Grass maybe? Also, we need a plausible SE against Elec.

Ice resists Water and Dragon
Ghost is resisted by Steel again
Fairy doesn't resist Bug
Poison is super effective against Normal
Fire is immune to Flying (because wind spreads fires)
Psychic is super effective against Fairy

Rate it anyone? Pointers or arguments for/against?

Grass is a heavy support type. It can take the hit.

Have Grass resist fairy, since many fae are connected to nature anywway. Nature dies, fae disappear.
Result: Grass a little bit better defensively (which it sorely needs), Fairy has slightly reduced effectiveness while still dealing significant offensive power against ubiquitous dragons, dark and fighting

Have Ice resist Water
Result: Ice is better defensively, Water as an all around popular and powerful type gets nerfed a bit

Basically, what we need are subtle changes and not overwhelming shifts in the Meta.

instead of trying to balance things all at once it would make sense to do them one at a time starting with ICE.
Ice needs a resist or two.
>water?
>ground?
>grass?
>flying?
>electric?
Poison needs another SE I think
>fighting
>dragon
>water
does poison need another resist?
>ghost
>can't think of any others that would make sense
What does dark need, another SE or resist?

And if you put water in a cold environment, it fucking freezes.

It still works, and it makes more real world sense than the other type relationships.
