Why does the burn status reduce your attack stat? It should've been the def stat.

>Burn reduces Attack

Why does Game Freak favor Special Attack?

Its kind of hard to hit someone when you're on fire, because you're preoccupied with not burning to death.

Yeah but hurting doesn't mean to being weaker in strenght. More like you should be weaker and more vulnerable to attacks.

Would you be angry if they made Poison reduce the Defense stat?

They don't. Physical attackers always get better movesets.

Physical boosting moves and physical moves in general get much better distribution than their special counterparts. It also helps that there are more abilities that buff attack.

When you're burned, it hurts to move.
And when it hurts to move, you won't throw punches and kicks as hard.

Electric and Flying types don't have any good physical attacks, unless you want to use the recoil moves.

The only time they were both equal was Gen 7. Every other gen, physical attackers reigned supreme.

Assault Vest, Chansey/Blissey existing, Competitive's lower distribution compared to Defiant, weaker special Normal, Bug, Dark, Fighting, Ground etc. moves, only one special priority move, Quiver Dance having worse distribution that Dragon Dance, same with Nasty Plot vs. Swords Dance etc.

But, Burn already depletes your mon's HP, adding recoil would turn it into "yet another Bad Poison".

Swords Dance has been around since gen 1. Nasty Plot took until gen 4 and still has ass distribution while virtually anything that can learn Scratch or X Slash gets SD.

Then remove the "damage every turn" part.
So it's simply "every damaging attack has recoil now".
Thinking about it, would this effect stack with moves that already give recoil? Would pokémon with the ability Rock Head be immune to Burns at that point?
