>>36758296>Fairy is too OP. Bug is too weak. Bug NEEDS a boost. Makes sense thematically as wellIf that's the case then I'd be fine with it. How does it makes sense thematically?
>Doesn't sound any more stupid than toxic spikes absorbed by Poison types. Just call it something other than "absorbed" like "sedimented" or some shit like that. SR over centralised the metaIf you're going to do that then ground types make more sense in that regard, especially since ground types resist SR
>Don't want to nerf rocks completely. Otherwise might as well remove it. Just don't want to see Ice/Flying and Bug/Flying lose 50% health just for fuckin switchingThat's kinda the whole point of SR being type dependent. There's really no way to go around this any other way. Plus it hurts flying types so that's one relevant niche
>Not everyone can/bothered to do that. Would still help Ice monsTrust me, the will
>Just listed the 2 most well-known moves. If you can think of other Rock moves with high BP and low Acc, this would apply to those as well. Just like how Toxic has perfect acc when used by Poison typesThe thing is for one, it would be better to simply boost the accuracy of the moves instead of just making it never miss for rock types. Also, Toxic is a status move, stone edge and rock slide are two very powerful moves in singles and doubles respectively
>>36758379Because bug really needed ANOTHER type that resists it
>>36758381And exactly how do we do that when people can simply transfer water pokemon with ice moves
