Yes, fire can melt steel, but only at temperatures way above that which would boil water and kill basically any living thing.
Yes, pressurized water can cut steel, but only at pressures way above that which could kill basically any living thing.
Yes, steel conducts electricity, but electricity doesn't damage steel at all.
Yes, some highly trained martial artists can bend steel, but they can also kill birds and bugs much more easily with that same amount of force.
Yes, earthquakes can bend steel beams, but they also destroy basically every other structure. By that same logic, grass should be weak to ground because earthquakes can uproot trees.
That said, I know that Pokemon is just a video game and gameplay should come before realism.
