Poison should be super effective against Water
>thematically, it fits as pollution is a big danger for sea life (life in general, but the visuals of sludge and oil spills killing fish is something we're very aware of)
>With this, Poison becomes an excellent coverage type as it allows mons to check two of the three best defensive types, let alone the most used Teras
>fears of unbalancing are moot since Grass types already have defensive niches completely separate from taking more damage from a coverage move
>on the other hand, having a third weakness would definitely hurt the ubiquitousness of defensive Tera Water and defensive Water types. At the same time, it'd be an indirect nerf to Fairy if checks and coverage against them become more common
Discuss all things Poison.
