Idk, maybe it's just my autism, but it feels kinda weird how an elemental type like Electric has so little to it. It would've fit Electric was super effective against Steel imho.

It's electricity. Either it's overpowered or they take a more relaxed approach.

pretty much useless on the physical side and shitty type variety. neither Zeraora nor Zapdos-G being Electric/Fighting is fucking retarded

Because it's the one Type with the highest proportion Pokemon with no secondary typing, more than half of them are just "lol make it yellow and add zigzags", and Gamefreak is terminally afraid of having any Electric Type be more popular than Pikachu.
