Remove rock weakness

Add Flying, Ground, and Dragon resists

Make it hard counter water.
Make it resist ground.
Remove its rock weakness.

But the biggest thing Gamefreak can do to help ice is give us ice types that actually make sense. None of this bulky ice type bullshit, ice types need to be fast sweepers.

Cue the absolute fucking idiots wanting to make Grass or Bug even worse.

Have it resist Ground and Flying, but really just make faster mons.

you'd think with how obviously unbalanced the type chart is somebody would make romhacks of earlier gens that fix it slightly

I dunno man, Mega-Glalie's pretty underrated.
And not every type's good defensively, you gotta have some offensive types.

It doesn't. Ice is awesome: Articuno > Moltres and Zapdos, also Frozen > Burning and Paralyzed.

Make the type chart actually reflect what pokemon are in a type.

Ice should be better defensively than it is offensive, because 90% of ice types are slow and bulky with no recovery some have recovery unlike say rock.

I love not using fire types ever.

It is. Articuno Ice Beam is very OP. If I am lying then how did I beat them both with Articuno when free matching on Pokémon Stadium?

kek what?

Both Moltres and Zapdos are faster and hit super effectively with their STABs and higher special attacks.

Because the Special split fucked Articuno over. Articuno was a beast in Gen I for multiple reasons.

Yes, I was referring G1 Articuno. Sadly I couldn't find a video on youtube about it.

Didn't know he got nerfed through. Sad.

To be fair, it wasn't just that Articuno got nerfed. Ice also got nerfed in two huge ways (probably for the best, but still)
>Freeze status is no longer permanent.
>Blizzard's accuracy was reduced (which was only fair, as Blizzard had an absurd 90% accuracy in Gen I)

I think they kind of overcompensated on FRZ considering it now lasts an average of 0 fucking turns and is completely useless when Sleep is ten times easier to inflict and you can usually rely on it buying you at least one goddamn turn

articuno would be a really cool mon after gen 4, because it got roost and later hurricane

if it were not for pleb spocks ensuring it starts with 50% HP

Quit gen 6 and everything game freak is gonna put out in the future so I have no idea how they buffed glalie, I was just trying to think of a pure ice type and he was the first one
also, the big problem with Ice blowing ass defensively is that too many ice types are bulky stat-wise. meanwhile electric types tend to be sweepers and glass cannons, yet they only get one weakness.
