Makes a bunch of mons more usable in the lower tiers.
Rapid Spin is actually a coveted move in the lower tiers (RU,PU,NU).
Everything dies to hazards now.

It wouldn't. It'd just make sneaky stones less viable, which is a very good thing.

Probably means shit like scolipede and Klinklang will get more use.
Also probably means a ghost type on every smogonfag's team.

What smogon team doesn't run either a Gengar, Mega-Sableye, or some form of Rotom.

They're good pokemon plus they stop Rapid Spin from happening

Only base form is ghost type, bro.

Dark types with Rapid spin make spinblocking a lot harder. Imagine if Pupitar could rapid Spin, letting Tyranitar know it by extension. Unspinblockable. Would be beautiful.

Also play more, faggot. Gengar and sableye aren't as common as you think, I've seen them swapped out for shit like bisharp

Are you new? Anyone with a little bit more than a bottom ladder experience would know that rotom-wash was still a ghost type in gen 4, and they've clearly got their gens mixed up.

Are you retarded? Anybody who isn't a complete faggot could've read the conversation and would know that this isn't gen 4 anymore.

Do you mean Spikes does more to those weak to Ground for example? If so, rip Fire types because now you get nailed on two fronts.
