No. Electric has one weakness. Ghost dark has one weakness, steel bug has one weakness. Levitate poison has one weakness.

Basically theres a ton of type combos with one weakness. Pre gen 6, anything mixed with dragon got rid of most of its weaknesses

Probably, a close contender is fire/fighting and steel/flying. Water/ground a combo I don't think I'd ever complain about seeing another of.

Far better than Grenigger and it's Water/Dark typing.

Steel/Flying has the best track record. I’d say Steel/Fairy would be up there too, but most of its representatives are good because of their absurd abilities and overinflated stats across the board.

All of those other type combos have weaknesses that are a lot more common ingame than Grass. You almost never see Grass moves on the enemy team outside of rivals/1 gym if it exists, and when you do it's usually garbage attacks like Absorb.

The other types dont really have as useful a STAB coverage either
>Beats Fire, Electric, Poison, Rock, Ground, Steel
>Literally your only worry is grass types (which are useless) and and awkward dual types flying mons.
Water types almost always learn ice moves and Ground types almost always learn rock moves too, so you really have all your bases covered.

In all honestly a single x4 weakness to grass is a great x4 weakness to have, all things considered. Not all teams bother carrying grass attacks, hell not even all grass types carry grass STAB depending on their role in the team. If you find yourself without a grass attack against these bulky motherfuckers (specially the ones with recovery) it's infuriating.

Bug/steel is the actual most based dual type anyways.

both STABs hit Steel for neutral now, so it's not all that bad

Its okay however the typing might be great defensively but its a middling offensive typing. The typing's pokemon also have a lot of overlap like 3/5 are water absorbing walls granted they do so in slightly different ways and Quagsire is mostly runs unaware.

To be fair, I don't think Mega Sableye would've been allowed to exist with no weaknesses.
Sableye and Spiritomb were both shitmons in terms of stats to compensate for the lack of weaknesses.

That's not how you spell Water/Electric. Type combo so based they dare not give it to anything with the slightest bit of decent stats.
