This shit is bullshit lopsided.
Physical attackers have to deal with:
>Burns
>Anti-contact abilities like Flame Body and Iron Barbs
>Rocky Helmet
>Confusion dealing more damage
>Rare but still existent anti-physical attacker moves such as King's Shield and Spiky Shield
>Rare but still existent abilities like Fur Coat that cut physical damage
>Intimidate
>Recoil damage on most of their powerful moves
>Body Press existing means a lot of Pokemon are now investing solely in physical defense that may not have before
Meanwhile, special attackers only have to deal with:
>Most powerful special attacks have low accuracy
They should add another status that fucks up special attackers too or at least nerf some of this shit that murders physical attackers. You literally can't justify this.
