New Pokémon type: Virus. Decide its strengths/weaknesses, moves, and retcon any potential mons that apply. Artwork or ideas for new Virus-types also welcome.

Grass has many effective and powerful tanks, it can afford to take a defensive hit for flavor.

Yes, like Ferrothorn, who's also a steel type and uh... wait, that's literally the only grass type in OU.
Grass is a shit typing that SHOULD NOT get any nerfs.

Hot take: Virus should be WEAK to grass, and grass RESISTS virus since herbs exists and they are often used for treatment against sickness.

It has to be super effective against fairy, we're trying to be offensive and funny.

You know what? I like that. That's good old fashioned Type chart logic. I'm off the SE against grass bandwagon now even though

is ignoring amoongus and tangrowth and of course venusaur.

The OU lineup hasn't been indicative of what's actually a strong pokemon since like gen 5. UU has tons of incredibly strong pokemon that just don't mesh well with the current cream of the crop, and it's where you find all of the grass tanks. They tend to be shuffled in and out of OU with the seasons.

Well if they're UU that means they aren't as good as OU mons.
Grass is just simply a bad typing, that's why there's only one OU grass mon the metagame (Who's also slowly declining in usage btw because Corviknight is a better tank than Ferro)
