Why does Game Freak hate poison types, /vp/? Will we ever get a poison type legendary? Even fairy type has gotten a legendary before poison type.

I don't know why Gamefreak hates Poison so much... but at least they made it SE against Fairy. I mean, that's something, right guys? Right?

They hate Poison types. It's why Scolipede got Speed Boost this gen.

They needed a type to kind of be the punching bag for all the other CPU trainers to use. Rocket Grunts got zubats and ekans, bikers and cue-balls got weezings and muks.

Really you could just make that a new move like Freeze-Dry. Corrosive Acid, Special 80bp 95acc, super effective against Steel.

Quoted By:

Fairy was garunteed to get a legendary in the generation it was introduced. I blame Gen 1 for introducing tons of poison types and Dark stealing the whole "evil" thing from them. Making them less necessary. I want more poison types, a poison legendary, but only to help Psychic types. Have Psychics resist poison, and with more poison types around it would make both types less pointless.

Bugs and snakes are venomous, not poisonous. They wouldn't be capable of producing corrosive anything, because they themselves would be harmed by it.

I'm guessing Zygarde will get a new forme the same way Giratina and Kyurem did in the last 2 gens. That could easily be a Poison type.

He'd be better bug/steel. Or even pure bug. No type benefits from a poison dual typing.

Scolipede is bretty good, a Jolluy one with 252 EVs in Speed and HP with Megahorn/Swords Dance/Protect/Baton Pass can at least be useful

My favorite bug gets shat on by any fire attack due to x4 weakness, its not Durant if you´re wondering
