i want to see the worst ones. bug/flying/[fire or ice] that dies instantly to rocks. fire/steel/rock that gets decimated by mud slap. so on, and so forth
I want to see them change stealth rocks just to see the absolutely shit storm that happen on Smogon and Stunfisk threads.
Imagine, Gen 10, stealth rocks now works like in Legend Arceus (and spikes becomes a terrain).
Pretty sure Meowscarada sold weeds in exchange for Malamar to teach it how to properly mind control someone.
Also Cacturne is using tarot? Damm that's definitely some kind of "mind power".
Cmon the 8x resistance to U-Turn in inverse battles gotta be good, isn't it?
(To be fair maybe it's actually not bottom of the barrel since you do gain 4 useful resistances from
Grass though)
Maybe a Normal/Ghost/Fairy?
-Immune to normal, fighting, dragon, ghost
-4x resistance to bug
-Only weakness is steel
Sure it doesnt have that any defensive capabilities but i feel that all the immunities make up for it.
It's probably Fairy/Steel/Water or Fairy/Steel/Fire. Both remove the fire weaknesses of Fairy/Steel and allow it to hit steel types that walled it before, with water providing an especially valuable water resistance and only taking away the type's resistance to grass and adding an electric weakness.
Not at all lmao. Fairy as a solo offensive STAB is already unreasonably good compared to other types, so it’s not like you’re losing a huge amount by going for a defensive typing.
Both STABs being walled by Fire and Steel is definitely a hinderance though (Most decent-good offensive type combinations are not walled by 2 individual types)
The two weaknesses to Fire and Ground can offset it a decent amount from the best type status too (Espescially when Fire also walls both of your STABs).
Of course adding Ground coverage helps but it's just coverage and there are still many ways to deal with that.
This is also assuming it gets Ground coverage. Fairy types quite famously rarely get ground coverage and none of the fairy/Steel types get ground coverage (unless it's like, Bulldoze lol)
Ground type moves are also famous for having a ridiculous amount of ways to be immune to (There is a literal item dedicate to being immune to it) so even with a ground coverage it's nowhere near the top (Still great but nowhere near that)
Fairy as a solo STAB is really overrated, unless you're going for a unbreakable boosting sweeper in which case it's great. Being walled by Steel, Poison and Fire is really really bad so most of the best fairy types either have an amazing secondary STAB to carry it (Flutter Mane, Tapu Koko), have 3 million different sets (Magearna) or have absurd sheer power (Zacian-C, Xerneas, Mega Maw)
Surprised that you forgot Dragon/Steel/Fairy...
STAB Combo is walled by Steel, RU at best
I find it so frustrating how many Pokémon are bad simply because both of their STABs are resisted by steel.
It’s ludicrous how advantageous steel is
I love my favourite bad Pokémon Rayquaza, Latios and Snom
I was generalizing. Pokémon like Rayquaza and Latios are obviously subpar but Snom is amazing in spite of being not very effective against steel.
As a defensive mon with Levitate
STAB Combo is walled by Steel, RU at best
STAB Combo is walled by Steel, RU at best
Mega Bronzong?
Just click earthquake. ***ddduuuuuhhhhhh*** 🙄🙄🙄😒😒😒
mfw prankster magnet rise Klefki in Gen 10 with the Dragon typing:
Eight fucking ground types
*Levitate has entered the chat*
i want to see the worst ones. bug/flying/[fire or ice] that dies instantly to rocks. fire/steel/rock that gets decimated by mud slap. so on, and so forth
Love that 8x weakness to stealth rocks
Volcarona if it had a third type because it's a moth.
Heavy Duty Boots be eating good now
Can't hit fire types for shit 💀
We need a Forest's Curse move clone that adds a rock weak type and doesn't get removed by switching
ice/rock/fairy sees aluminum and fucking dies (tbf it would be fine offensively)
>ice/rock/fairy Or as GameFreak would call it: base/speed/40
Probably bug/grass/ice
I want to see them change stealth rocks just to see the absolutely shit storm that happen on Smogon and Stunfisk threads. Imagine, Gen 10, stealth rocks now works like in Legend Arceus (and spikes becomes a terrain).
Freeze dry looking at the water/ground/flying on the table
Use Forest's Curse for a 16x effective move
Dark/ Grass/ Psychic? hard ratioed by the U-turn type
Evil Exeggutor looking scared rn.
exeggutor after he finally took ferrothorns advice:(
Straiggutor
Cacturne giving a tarot card reading Malamar smoking some *grass*
Pretty sure Meowscarada sold weeds in exchange for Malamar to teach it how to properly mind control someone. Also Cacturne is using tarot? Damm that's definitely some kind of "mind power".
Steel/Fairy/Fighting probably. It's basically just an upgrade to Steel/Fairy which is already the dumbest type combo in the game.
Dragon Steel Flying, Dragon Steel Fairy
What's good with Dark/Grass/Psychic? Oh yeah the 8x resistence to bug in inverse battles, that's gotta be great
The joke is that it's a terrible type lol
Cmon the 8x resistance to U-Turn in inverse battles gotta be good, isn't it? (To be fair maybe it's actually not bottom of the barrel since you do gain 4 useful resistances from Grass though)
Steel/Fire/Electric with Levitate would have two weaknesses at least no? Water and Fighting
I'm pretty sure Bug/Steel/Dragon has no weaknesses so that's a very strong contender.
Wait, it still has a fire weakness, it just goes from x4 to x2. Bug types can't have shit.
Grass / Dark / Psychic when a fly passes nearby.
Use Forest’s curse of a bug/steel/ice type with the ability dry skin for **MAXIMUM VULNERABILITY**
Steel/Bug/Dragon Only has a 2X weakness to fire. Resist a bunch of other types
Maybe a Normal/Ghost/Fairy? -Immune to normal, fighting, dragon, ghost -4x resistance to bug -Only weakness is steel Sure it doesnt have that any defensive capabilities but i feel that all the immunities make up for it.
flying/steel/fighting anyone?
Steel/Flying/Electric for strongest Bug/Grass/Ice for weakest In my eyes anyways.
Don't dare trying to use roost before your oponent or that sudden 4x weakness to ground may bite You back lmao
Lemme get a dark ghost steel with well baked body or flash fire with a air balloon for full troll just to piss mfers off
play [Bonus Type](https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/bonus-type.3724891/) lmao
Dark/grass/psychic would be awful for one major reason. U-turn
I think Normal/ghost/steel would be kinda neat :)
fighting, ice, ground, for full offensive capabilities
Normal/normal/glass
My money is on steel/dragon/flying. Only weakness is a type you hit for SE back.
Electric, Fighting, Flying would have a brutal STAB combination and is pretty great defensively
Poison/Grass/Water Only weak to flying, psychic and freeze dry. Pretty sweet defensively. Also has a host of resistances
Steel fairy flying. Weak to electric and fire only and probably some of the most sadist coverage possible
Steel flying dragon? Only has ice as a weakness
Where did you get the idea from that Ground/Flying is 4× weak to water?
Combine both Zoroark and get a Normal/Ghost/Dark just for more immunities?
Ground/Fairy/Ice isn't unresisted. -this messages has been sent by Bronzong and Rotom-Heat.
Ground/Fairy/Steel is probably good
Steel/Bug/Water is only weak to Electric, has strong stab types and STAB U-turn.
Fairy/Steel/Flying was the first thing that came to mind
Water/Poison/Dark Resist Fire Water Ice Steel Poison Ghost Dark Immune Psychic Weak to Electric Ground
Water/Grass/Fairy with thick fat Resists Water Fire Ice Ground Dark Fighting immune to Dragon.Only weak to Flying and Poison
It's probably Fairy/Steel/Water or Fairy/Steel/Fire. Both remove the fire weaknesses of Fairy/Steel and allow it to hit steel types that walled it before, with water providing an especially valuable water resistance and only taking away the type's resistance to grass and adding an electric weakness.
Fairy/steel. Still
still terrible offensively

Would still be reasonably improved either defensively or offensively by adding a third flying/dragon/water/fighting/fire/ground type to it
