>>36245752Because it's retarded to balance a metagame for a campaign, the "strong early game shitty late game type." hasn't ever even been true besides a small period of time where butterfree gets confusion and you are limited on special attacking moves in gen 1.
I would like to see a trend of bugs being good at first, lagging behind, but then getting good again late game. They've kind of done this with some gen 5 pokemon getting great moves at high levels, or volcarona being a beast.
I just think having two chitinis insect like claws scissoring you twice in an x pattern should be a little more powerful, especially when compared to shit like play rough being 90 base power, or slashing someone with a fucking leaf also has 80 BP but with a high crit rate
