Mega Evolutions were what filtered shitters and casuals who couldn't adapt to such a sudden change to the meta.

I still despise fairy all this time later. When the solution is worse than the problem, it's not a solution.

What does that have to do with anything? I play the game, don't like the new type, and am expressing my opinion about it. Try again.
>>56234420
He's right about fairy types. And Sylveon is the worst looking eeveelution by far, tainting a great family.

You're crying about game balance for a game you clearly don't play which is why you're spewing blatantly wrong opinions about it.

What's wrong with fairy type? All anyone ever says is that it just replaced dragon as the best type, but there will always be a best type.

I'd also add route and dungeon design to the "Based" category, since it at least tried to have dungeons and some interesting design.
All in all, I think XY get a lot of undeserved hate.
ORAS, SM, and USUM were shit, yes, I agree with that. But XY at least tried to retain a lot from the past generations.

i hate fairy for lore reasons. what even is a fairy, in the context of the universe? any time you ask someone what concepts it's supposed to represent, they'll shit out five mutually exclusive answers, and most if not all of them will be things covered by other types.
and if you think i'm bullshitting, give me an in-universe reason why fairy is immune to dragon.

Why is dark weak to fighting? Why is psychic weak to dark? They just are. I don't think there's ever been an ingame reason stated for why any type matches up the way it does, so it's weird that fairy always gets this scrutiny specifically.

I do think Dark being immune to Psychic is excessive and the same problem as Fairy's immunity to Dragon. Drastic overreaction to perceived balance issues.

Most if not all special attack dragon moves use dragon energy to do their thing
Fairy types emit fairy energy, which is unaffected by dragon energy because that's how it is
The end

And draconic/fairy energy is the output of those things based on some magical fantasy reaction. Does that settle your autism?

Honourable fighter beats evil. Also, evil is one of the mind's biggest and most common fears, just like ghosts and insects are.

I'll admit some matchups are inexplicable (Why does Steel resist Dark?) but I think most can be explained at least decently well
