>>22958653I think that being inmune to dragon maybe was too much, but it's the least bad thing of all things that faries brought.
1st, even if the advantage to "Dark" makes sense "lore-wise", Dark didn't need a nerf, it was okay as it was being weak to bug and fighting (fighting being one of the most used offensive types)
2nd, now we were talking about Fighting, it being weak to Fairy doesn't make any sense, not for balance nor for "lore". Fighting was already weak to Flying and Psychic, commonly used for coverage, and didn't have good resistances.
3rd, Pokémon that were pretty good like Hydreigon or Scrafty become shit because they are now x4 weak to Fairy when in the previous generation they were well balanced.
4th, everyone gets Fairy coverage now, why.
5th, indirect nerfs to Grass, Ice and Psychic, types that needed a buff. The buff to offensive Steel and Poison was nice, but they also made Steel worse taking good (and logic) resistances (just for Aegislash, fuck GF seriously).
They should have made a type resistant or inmune to dragons but weak to grass, poison and steel which hits SE to dragon and electric and hit NVE to Ice, Grass and Poison.
But under which "category"?
Also, Fairy type is the faggiest name for a Pokémon type ever. Sound/Hero or pretty much another thing would be better
