Why doesn't GF combine Rock and Ground types into a singular Earth type?
>The pokemon with these typings share very similar design elements
>Rock/Ground dual types will lose their 4x weaknesses to grass and water
>These two types share many weaknesses and resistances already
>Rock types need a buff and ground types are a little too strong, so meet them in the middle
>Gives former rock types better STAB options like Earthquake and Earth Power
Earth Type Weaknesses:
>Water
>Grass
>Ice
>Fighting
Resistances:
>Normal
>Poison
>Fire
>Flying
>Electric (immune)
Hits super effective against:
>Steel
>Electric
>Poison
>Fire
Resisted by:
>Fighting
>Earth
>Bug
>Grass
>Flying (Immune)
