Either:
>Water type attacks are SE to Steel types because RUST

or

>Scald/A specific water type move is SE against steel types a la Freeze dry
and either
>Leaves a burn/status
or
>Just is super effective

How does the meta change?

Water is fine as it is, it doesn't need a buff.

>not electric
Most steel structures are covered in aluminum to stop oxidation. Aluminum alloy is also considered a soft metal that resist rust,
>water damage isn't halved

Water-type is already very strong. No need to give them the Freeze Dry treatment and have them fuck the meta in the ass.

Water doesn't need buffing. Now on the other hand, what would change if Poison were to be SE on either Water or Flying(or heck make it both).

>freeze dry treatment
here at gamefreak we are intrigued by this idea and propose the following balance changes

Steel now takes super effective damage from water type attacks to alleviate the overdominance of said type
Freeze Dry will become one of the new tutor moves giving many water types access to this unique move.
Scald will be slightly modified for flavor reasons: it now deals super effective damage to ice types instead of merely neutral damage

Water should be super-effective against everything, because everything drowns. Including ghosts.

If anything it needs to be nerfed.

New type idea: Astro type: Strong against: Fairy, Water and Flying. Weak to: Normal, Dragon and Steel. Resists: Fairy, Water, Flying and other Astro. Types that resist it: Normal, Steel, Rock and Ice

>Water is already great defensively and offensively with the most amount of Pokemon and the most important/best HMs
>Let's just make it even better and fuck every other type that desperately needs a buff like Ice or Grass
