>>35086545>ALL they need to do to improve Ice is just make MORE Ice types.Yeah, let's make more
SLOW
DEFENSIVE
ICE
TYPES
Let's completely forget that Ice needs legendaries with BSTs just behind Arceus or Poketubers to be in OU.
Let's completely forget that nearly every Ice Type is designed as
SLOW
AND
DEFENSIVE
Let's forget about the overwhelming number of Ice types in NU and below.
Let's forget the existence of Steel Types and Stealth Rock
Let's forget that Water Types almost always know Ice Beam or Ice Punch and that Dragon has a 3rd weakness to Fairy now
Let's forget that they needed to give Hail a duel screens move to make Hail remotely viable.
You're absolutely right anon. Let's just keep pumping out Ice type after Ice type into NU. Eventually 1 might be viable for a few seconds in OU. Who cares about all those other Ice types that were born as
SLOW
AND
FUCKING
DEFENSIVE
Making it so that Ice Types have more than one resistance to itself is just crazy type. COULD you imagine how BROKEN Avalugg would be if it resisted something OTHER THAN Ice moves? WOULDN'T Weavile just become an unstoppable tank if it resisted one of the following: Ground, Poison, Flying, Electric, Grass, or Water?
Also typings should be based on the literal physics of their type's name, and not balancing or the theme of the type itself.
With that being said, Ice needs more weaknesses too. If I lift a tree from the ground and hit a 1cm ice cube (slightly bigger than your dick), the Ice is fucking dead. Same with ground and flying, where if I lift an entire fucking highway or the wind god Fujin and hit that ice cube with it, the ice is fucking dead. You also know what, Ice needs to be weak to every type because the extreme literal and weakest form of ice is no match for everything.
Also make Water immune to everything too. Pure water exists, and nothing happens even when you interact with just pure water and fish, amphibians, water bugs/insects, and beavers don't exist either.
