>>19951520The way I see it, is that it's a high-risk, high-reward type to use. On the one hand, its STAB is resisted by just short of half the type chart and have the dubious honor of being tied for the type with the most weaknesses, plus it only hits three things super effectively; however, It's also one of two types to hit water super effectively, one of three types to resist water, one of three types that resists ground, and the only one of which not to be weak to rock. It also has the best status move in the game in spore, and is immune to all powder moves itself. Leech seed and giga drain are also quite good moves. All that said, it's still definitely in the bottom half of types in my opinion and could definitely stand to be buffed.
But never will because of Masuda's raging boner for water typesIt's also my favorite type. Being a grass fag is suffering. ;_;
