Resist Fairy. Easy buff that's huge for grass and doesn't destroy Fairy. Free real estate.

That's a good idea defense speaking, but it would still be lacking in offense.

Fairy immunity and unique status moves.
Where is my confusion + poison move?
Give it more def overwall because grass can withstand physical abuse

>Stop giving Water types access to a ton of Ice moves
>make Rain Dish and Chlorophyll passive buffs like the Sandstorm Sp.Def boost for Rock/Ground/Steel types since it makes thematic sense for Grass types to be good in both Rain and Sun instead of being useless in both
>give Grass types access to Earth Power and Power Gem instead of having all of them run around with pathetic movepools full of just Grass and Normal type moves
>Give Fire's Fairy resist to Grass instead
If you really want to go crazy make either Flying or Steel lose their Grass resistance, it's pretty much impossible to be an offensive Grass type because every other Pokemon will roll up with a x4 resist.
At it's current state Grass sucks as both an offensive and defensive type, and before you say Tangrowth, that thing has a shitload if HP, a ton of sapping moves and Regenerator, it's a very clear outlier which is why it's one of the few notable grass types. Kartana is minmaxed as fuck and M-Venusaur literally removes Grass' two big weaknesses. All the good Grass Pokemon escape the vices of being a normal Grass type.

Earth Power makes perfect sense, but I don't see how Power Gem works thematically.

Also give them fire types moves so they can use sun

Other idea I've had would be to make abilities that power up in the sun like Chlorophyll and Leaf Guard protect from the sun's boost to fire-type moves

Doesn't make sense as too much sunlight dries plants out making them more flammable.

Add more grass-type waifumons? I think Liligant and Tsareena are enough but a third one wouldn't hurt.

>Since grass is a type heavily based on what it's paired with try new combos

Make grass resist Fairy (as stated above it does not break the game at all)
You could even make it resist fighting (but that would buff ferrothorn too much)
Wider Access to earth power.
Reduce the availability of Ice Beam on Water types (this way you can use more grass types and also it encourages you to use ice types or pokemon like Empoleon who make sense they can use ice type moves)
Buff Giga Drain to 80 BP and Energy Ball to 90 BP
Make it hit Electric for neutral damage

Giving more grass Pokemon grassy surge would help the type as a whole, tapu bulu alone makes grass types better not because of its stats but it's ability.

Speaking of which, why does nearly all water types get ice beam while grass types can't get earthquake or similar good earth moves aside from Dig?
Why is GF so wet for water?
