Dualtypes deal 1.25x damage with both of their STAB's, while monotypes keep their 1.5x STAB

Ice now resists Water, Grass, Flying, Ground and Fairy + gains boosted Defense in Hail

Psychic is now supereffective and resistant to Fairy. Psychic is also now neutral against Steel

Steel regains it's Dark resistance

Stealth Rocks no longer does type-based damage. Dealing the equivalent damage of two layers of Spikes. SR still hits Flying-Types

Gems return (but not Z-Moves), in addition to every move and all Pokemon (minus Mega Evos and Ultra Beasts)

What changes?

Steel resists Psychic because steel is dense, and dense is an insult meaning that someone is stupid. Rock should also resist Psychic in a similar fashion due to the term "dumb as a rock".

Steel shouldn't resist Dark again as that made no sense at all and having that resistance back would make an already-OP typing stronger.

I do agree with the proposal for Ice's new resistances, partially because Aurorus would lose three out of its six weaknesses and that Ice would have actual resistances.

Yes No Pure Types have aren't completely overshadowed offensively

Ice is now completely broken. Having 6 total resistances is insane. Having another type resist Grass is even worse. Just having it resist Flying and Ground should be enough.
>Psychic is now supereffective and resistant to Fairy. Psychic is also now neutral against Steel
Yes to being super effective against Fairy, No to being neutral to Steel.
>Steel regains it's Dark resistance
NO. Steel is good enough defensively
>Stealth Rocks no longer does type-based damage. Dealing the equivalent damage of two layers of Spikes. SR still hits Flying-Types
Do you mean they they still hit Flying types super-effective? If so This is a major improvement.

>Dualtypes deal 1.25x damage with both of their STAB's, while monotypes keep their 1.5x STAB
stall gets way better, dual types suffer especially if they weren’t getting much use out of one of their stabs. A lot of monotypes like Clefable probably get their offensive sets used more.

>Ice now resists Water, Grass, Flying, Ground and Fairy + gains boosted Defense in Hail
Ice becomes one of the better defensive typings as it’s an easy stop to the time-tested Flying/Ground coverage, as well as a good Water and Fairy answer. A Freeze-Dry Ice type is the ideal Water counter, since it’s not weak to Ice like Grass or Dragon and can hit Water SE unlike another Water. Hail Buff isn’t a huge deal but nice for all the Snow Warning mons. Grass is cucked harder than ever.

>Psychic is now supereffective and resistant to Fairy. Psychic is also now neutral against Steel
Psychic is no longer a burden defensively, but becomes a broken offensively. Psychic and Fairy coverage was good and gets extremely powerful when you take Steel types out. Mega Gardevoir and Tapu Lele rule the land.

>Steel regains it's Dark resistance
Dark gets a little worse. Steel stays the same with losing the Psychic resist.

>Stealth Rocks no longer does type-based damage. Dealing the equivalent damage of two layers of Spikes. SR still hits Flying-Types
Unironically makes SR better and nerfs switch heavy playing a little, since hitting everyone for good damage is a bigger deal than hitting a few types (two of them garbage) for some extra damage. Also helps with type balance since Rock weakness isn’t fatal.

>Gems return (but not Z-Moves), in addition to every move and all Pokemon (minus Mega Evos and Ultra Beasts)
This is more of a case by case basis, but some big notes- Deoxys becomes crazy with your Psychic buffs, Regieleki and Spectrier destroy the game with Hidden Power, Ttar and Muk-Alola is more important than ever to stop Psychics from killing everyone.

It's weak to steel, fire, fighting, and rock. It shouldn't have fucking 6 total resistances you massive retard. Especially with how strong it is offensively.
