So a steel pokemon should be hit by a water pokemon for years before dealing supereffective damage?

Try squirting a fork with a water gun, it won't break dumbass

Isn't it the oxygen that makes metals rust?

So shouldn't flying be strong against steel????

Face it. Gamefreak listens to the dry plebs as they cry about superiority of the glorious water type master race. This illogical paradox can be explained by no other means.

Psychic should be weak against water and flying because heaps of cunts are afraid of drowning and flying. Could probably throw fire in the mix too then gen 1 psychic would've been balanced.

rust, i get it but fire, ground and fight are enough weaknesses.
before steel came out I thought it might be weak to electric because metal conducts electricity but it's for the best it didn't

Steel isn't very effective against Water, which I guess is their rationalization. But then practically everything else isn't very effective against Steel.

The whole system is borked because there are too many non-elemental types now. Try not to add realism to it.

Throw a fork at a rock it won't break it. Punch a bird it won't hurt it. Throw some leaves at a rock. A lot of type matchups don't make sense dumbass. Water rusts steel, it'd be a better type matchup than Fighting and Flying for example.

What? I mean, you did realize the type theme of Steel is tools, right?

Shovels,for example, being why Ice is weak to it?

But water isn't a living compound so it's retarded to imply it can be poisoned.

And that's entirely what water's type theme is - literal water. Can't poison what isn't living.

Water can not be effective against steel as an attack like water gun or surf.

False. Plain ol' carbon steel is not very corrosion resistant. The main reason we make steel is for its generally superior mechanical properties (strength, hardness, ductility, etc.) and the ability to balance them as you like (strong/stiff vs. soft/flexible), insofar as you are able to.

Dude, wind spreads and feeds fire, it gives it more intensity. I'm talking about actual fires and not blowing on a match.
