The Ice type if Game Freak wasn't shit.
>>55754492Why would Ice resist Flying, Ground and Dragon?
hide retarded headcanon tranny threads
>it’s another campaignshitter screeching because he can’t understand the game beyond looking at the type chart
>>55754504Balance, but do you really think each interaction across every type has a scientific reasoning behind it???Because they don't.
>>55754504bird no like colddragonslayer type? i guess?ground i have no idea (thematically)
>>55754492Hey Anon? I don't really want to engage in intellectual discussion in the Ice Type Is Bad Thread No. 546,201, but I just wanted to say your thread is better than 500,000 of those threads, because you DIDN'T say Ice should resist Water. And I respect you for being one of like 6 people on /vp/ who is actually fucking sane.
Surf should gain double power after using Moonlight or Moonblast because tides are affected by the moon's gravity
>>55754568>>55754492Ice and Water should be neutral against each other.
>>55754515You didn’t balance the type. All you did was homogenize it while also making it broken.
>>55754685>>55754492It should be>ONLY DURING SNOW Ice resists Water>All other times, it's neutral >Ice is SE on Water (Water Types lose common access to Ice Beam)>Ice resists Electric (Electric is now SE on mons who have Levitate, to make up for this)>Ice resists Dragon (Fairy's Dragon immunity becomes a resist)>Ice resists either Ground or Flying, I don't care which>Snow no longer raises Ice Type defenses. It instead cuts the Speed of all non-Ice Types down to 50%. A lot of Ice Types also just are given slightly higher Speed stats in the first place.>Aurora Beam will have 1.5x base power and always set up an Aurora Veil, if both Snow is up and the user is holding a special item
>>55754755It should be>none of these things and anon starts actually playing the game to learn how it works
>>55754755Scrap all of that, add Frozen Tundra as a terrain, Frozen Tundra reduces Speed and Defense depending on type effectiveness, 50% for weak to Ice, 20% for neutral, Pokemon that resist Ice are unaffected. Frozen Tundra's duration is reduced by 1 turn for every Ice weakness used while it's active
>>55754911Hey man congrats on pokemon unbound, it's a big achievement.
>>55754510Campaignshitter will never be a meme.
>>55754492Ice should've resisted Fairy. With a simple change it would've had a notable defensive niche while still not being "good".but no, instead Fire gains a sixth resistance to Fairy for no other reason other than to make sure CHARIZARD's new form wasn't weak to the girly type
>>55755237>Ice should've resisted Fairyno it shouldn't have
>>Ice should [buff]>NO FUCK OFF CAMPAIGNSHITTER>*posts same webm of Ninetales using Sheer Cold against Toxapex/Articuno abusing Snow Cloak, or some Ice type who is balanced by having Ice be a handicap for it*There, thread is now over.
Ice is a poor conductor of electricity so it should resist Electric.Ice cubes can be used to store poisons so Ice should resist Poison.Ice is also literally water but solid so Ice should resist Water too.Also to compensate Electric is now super effective to Fairy (manmade machines run on electricity) and Poison is super effective to Water (pollution)>b-but muh glasscannon headcanons!!!Don’t care. If Ground, Water, and Fairy can have both amazing offense and defense, Ice can be good offensively and decent defensively too.
>>55756257Also all the wojaks that get spammed.
>>55756398See >>55756257
>>55756416>n-no you see baxcalibur having one of the best stabs ever and resisting every physical move in the game is a handicap because I looked at the type chartzzz
3 extra resists is big overkill, don't know why it's so hard for people to understand that Ice is intended to be an offensive focused type
>>55756439because alot of ice types arent built to be speedy attackers and are in fact fairly slow and bulkyhell its only in gen9 where they bucked this trend with chien pao baxcalibur iron bundle and even cetitian with its ability
>>55756439Campaignshitters want every type to just be a reskin of one another with exactly the same number of resistances and weaknesses because they’re retards who don’t understand how game design works.
>>55754510>>557564511 attention given.
>>55756449Glastrier isn’t a speedy attacker and it’s still goodCalyrex isn’t a speedy attacker and it’s still goodAbomasnow isn’t a speedy attacker and it’s still goodMamoswine isn’t a speedy attacker and it’s still goodHave you considered you’re just bad at the game
>>55756458calyrex isnt an ice type retard its a ghost/psychic type

>>55756459this poster is the type of person who tries to give balance suggestions for the game btw
>>55756464no I'm saying no one uses ice rider in favor of the much better shadow rider
>>55756483>no I'm saying no one uses ice riderthis poster is the type of person who tries to give balance suggestions for the game btw
>>55754504>>55754519I think I get his reasoning:>Flying types freeze and fall out of the air.>Dragontypes(Lizards) are coldblooded and fall into torpor during the cold.>Ground cracks and rips apart from ice formation.
>>55756427>>n-no you see baxcalibur having one of the best stabs everBaxcalibur is not a Fairy, Ground, Dark, Ghost, Fighting, Fire, Water, or Rock type>resisting every physical move in the gameAnon, learn how the game actually works (aka play the game) before saying retarded shit like this.
>>55756711>Baxcalibur is not a Fairy, Ground, Dark, Ghost, Fighting, Fire, Water, or Rock typeYou’re right, it isn’t. That’s what makes it good.>Anon, learn how the game actually worksYou first.
>>55756439>BUT ICE IS SUPPOSED TO BE OFFENSE FOCUSEDShit only applies for Gen 1 Ice type. Fire and Steel resistance really crippled it offensively.And besides, it’s not like other types that are on par if not better than Ice offensively have severally crippling weaknesses. Ground is amazing offensively, on par with Ice at least, and amazing defensively too, yet no one minds how strong ground is on both sides. Yet people freak out when ever someone suggests Ice being buffed defensively at any capacity.
>>55756821> Shit only applies for Gen 1 Ice type. Nope. If you’re using ice types defensively you’re literally just using them wrong.> Fire and Steel resistance really crippled it offensivelyThat’s weird, it sure doesn’t feel like I’m being crippled offensively when I 1HKO or freeze them for free.>Ground is amazing offensively,ground has an entire type that’s immune to it, ground has an entire ability that’s immune to it, ground doesn’t have weather support that gives it massive free defense buffs, ground doesn’t have a status condition that instantly incapacitates opponents, ground has incredibly limited special move coverage
>freeze them for freeyeh its not like fire moves thaw them out or anything
>>55757454Don’t argue with Freezetard. You’re better off arguing with a brick wall.
>>55754510>>55754768>>55756398>>55756427>>55756451>>55756458>>55756464>>55756524>>55756723
>>55757454Cool now what about literally every other move in the game
I’d just like to remind Freezetard that Paralysis is better than Freeze, especially if you forgo luck factors.Freeze is easier to prevent, easier to cure, and Paralysis will always halve the opponent’s speed.Watch as Freezetard apply luck and probability to Paralysis while also defending Freeze because he is incapable of not shitposting.
>>55757580> I’d just like to remind Freezetard that Paralysis is better than Freeze, No. If I paralyze an opponent they have a 75% chance of still acting. If I freeze an opponent they only have a 20% chance of still acting. Freeze is by far the strongest status condition in the game. If you freeze an opponent it often means you automatically beat them.
Btw here are all the ways to prevent/cure Paralysis vs FreezeParalysis>Cheri Berry>Being hit by Smelling Salts>Being an electric type>Have Limber as an ability>That’s literally it for all unique ways to prevent/cure paralysisFreeze>Thawing out by chance>Aspear Berry (just a different berry)>Being hit by ANY fire type move>Being hit by ANY move that changes type and is currently fire type move>Being hit by Scald, Steam Eruption, Scorching Sands, or Matcha Gotcha>Using the moves Flame Wheel, Sacred Fire, Flare Blitz, Fusion Flare, Scald, Steam Eruption, Burn Up, Pyro Ball, Scorching Sands, and Matcha Gotcha>Being an Ice type (just different type)>Having Magma Armor as an ability>Having Shield Dust because you can only be frozen by attacking moves>Holding Covert Cloak for the same reason>Harsh Sunlight is up>That’s it for all the unique ways to prevent/cure freeze, berry and type immunity really just being the same too but with a different name
>>55757627Anon, please finish first grade math before badmouthing people smarter than you.
>>55754504For the same reasons Ice is super effective to them
>>55757715You first.
Another Ice thread, another bout of endless autism over a literal gimmick type that only exists because it was the secret "gotcha" to Lance's Dragon Types, who were otherwise resilient to all the most common attacking types aside from Normal and Psychic.
>>55754755>>Ice resists Dragon (Fairy's Dragon immunity becomes a resist)why not just make fairy weak to ice
>>55756439And not all Pokemon are offensive retard.Nearly all the ice types are lumped in ZU
>>55756257>some Ice type who is balanced by having Ice be a handicap for it*This is explicitly how the game is designed, Pokemon aren’t made independently from their typings
>>55759264Things changed since gen 2 boomer.
>>55759318>nearly all ice types are lumped in [irrelevant fanfic tier]How is this relevant at all? This is why smogtards are annoying as fuck btw. They try to shove their shitty fanfic rules down everyone’s throat and pretend Game Freak is supposed to magically design around it. And yes, every Pokemon in that image is used offensively when the person using them actually knows what they’re doing.
>>55759405Why did you post a selfie?
>>55759247Don’t worry I’ll help you with your homework.1. T/F Does 80% equal 100%?False, 80% is lower than 100%.2. What is more likely to happen, using Glare and your opponent being paralyzed first turn, or using Ice Beam + being frozen + not immediately thawing out?It’s Glare paralyzing first turn. 100% accuracy times 25% chance to paralyze is a 25% chance to paralyze. Meanwhile using Ice Beam, there is only a 10% chance to Freeze and an 80% chance they’ll remain frozen. 10% times 80% is 8% which is lower than being paralyzed first turn vs Glare
>>55759473Why are you talking about Glare and Ice Beam? The post was talking about Paralysis vs Freeze. You aight, goalpost moving schizo?
>>55754492>Remove Fairy type>Make Ice immune to Dragon (it makes more sense anyways)>Make Ice resist Water while having Scald be SE against Ice types>Keep S/V's reduced Scald distribution while nerfing Scald to 70 base power to match Freeze Dry>New ability distributed to many Ice types called Snow Pack. This ability makes it so that during Snow, the Pokemon with this ability gain a resistance to Ground, Flying, and Bug type attacks>Frostbite added into the game. Ice type version of Will O Wisp is added into the game that has perfect accuracy if used by an Ice type or during Snow. Frozen still exists, but it only happens if a Pokemon that is Frostbitten gets Frostbitten again There, I fixed the Ice type. Now Defensive Ice types have a niche, Ice becomes better offensively with the removal of Fairy and the addition of Frostbite, and now Ice types can have a signature status effect that isn't ass.
>>55759330Sometimes they are. Game Freak gives out types it thinks are good to Pokemon it likes. Lucario has no reason to be a Fighting/Steel type. Same with Zacian being Fairy/Steel.I think the simplest solution to why balance issues are as blatant as they are is that Game Freak is simply incompetent.
>>55754492Huh? Where's the Water, Electric, and Dark resistance? They need that too.
>>55759425because it is very based, like me
>>55759514>There, I fixed the Ice typeall you did was make the game balance drastically worse>Now Defensive Ice types have a nichethey don't need a niche, if you want to use a defensive pokemon use another type>Ice becomes better offensivelyyou didn't make it better offensively because you added frostbite like a fucking retard which only benefits defensive pokemon>and now Ice types can have a signature status effect that isn't assAll you did was make their signature status effect worse.
>>55756458>Glastrier isn’t a speedy attacker and it’s still goodGlastrier is a shitmon, especially compared to Spectrier.>Calyrex isn’t a speedy attacker and it’s still goodCalyrex-I is a shitmon because it shares the same species as Calyrex-S. You can't have both, and who in their right mind would choose Ice Rider over Shadow Rider unless you're running a dedicated Trick Room team? In 90% of circumstances, Shadow Rider is just out and out the better option.>Abomasnow isn’t a speedy attacker and it’s still goodIt's a shitmon, anon. No one ever uses it over A-Ninetales. Hell, Vulpix was banned from ZU because Abomasnow was getting countered by a baby Pokemon. People were more terrified of Sunflora and Vulpix than they were of Abomasnow and Articuno. >Mamoswine isn’t a speedy attacker and it’s still goodMamoswine has been powercrept super hard in recent generations. In early gens, its speed was more than okay considering it's a wall breaker. Now it's too slow to do anything to offensive teams, and Game Freak neutered Stall so hard that few people ever use it anymore meaning Mamoswine lost its only remaining niche.
A lot of people in this thread are Avalugg haters and that's not ok.
>>55759576>Glastrier is a shitmonThanks for outing yourself as a retard four words in so I don't need to bother reading the rest of the post.
>>55759387I dunno, I think I trust Smogon autists who play the game all day everyday over some schmuck on /vp/ who can't get past 1200 ELO or beat a Frontier Brain in game.
>>55759541Zacian is fairy steel because King Arthur is a fairy tale and it has a sword, Restricted Pokemon aren’t supposed to be balanced. Lucario they just stapled spikes to it
>>55759595>he thinks tier list starers play the game all day
>>55759569>all you did was make the game balance drastically worseNo, that drastically improved the balance. QED>they don't need a niche, if you want to use a defensive pokemon use another typeOver half of all the Ice types are slow and defensive. >you didn't make it better offensively because you added frostbite like a fucking retard which only benefits defensive pokemonFrostbite make Ice type SpA attackers more valuable since they can easily switch in on Frostbite. The removal of Fairy also greatly helps Ice types' viability since they would be one of the only 2 types in the game capable of hitting Dragon for SE. Their immunity to Dragon would also give them more ins so they can fire off their powerful attacks more than once or twice a game.>All you did was make their signature status effect worse.How? Frostbite is fantastic, and you can still cause Freeze by reapplying Frostbite.
>>55759591>Fanfic formatlol, lmaoPlay real Pokemon (singles) before speaking to me, prole.

>>55759623>why did you post people who used it and f-ACK!
>>55759638>steel>"complete dogshit"please be jestin
>>55759614Freezetard is a gambling addict that doesn’t understand probability or even how Freeze actually works.And as a gambling addict, they hate the idea of foresight and gameplans. They love abilities like Snow Cloak or Moody (thinking its associated with Ice type too) and moves like Sheer Cold.He’ll also post niche scenarios like being on your last Pokemon and about to die but only a Freeze can save you, without realizing that maybe better planning (nsmely crippling something with Frostbite) would prevent you from getting in those scenarios.Oh and also additionally Freezetard will ignore the luck factors of Freeze by claiming Ice Beam is an OHKO move because it POTENTIALLY can freeze an opponent forever, but suddenly applies luck when talking about Paralysis which is strictly better in everyway besides the lower chance to skip opponent’s turn, because otherwise he has no other argument as to why Freeze should still exist.
>>55759678People do use freeze as part of their foresight and game plans. You want to water it down and make a shitty burn clone because you’re bad at the game.
>>55759678"Freezetard" is just yawnfag
>>55759387Go fuck yourself Versilitranny. Smogon tiering is objectively good to measure Pokemon individual viablity.Unlike VGC were 99.9% of Pokemon that aren't DLC/side game paywalled never see use.
>>55759405None of those would fix Ice type. Are you fucking retarded?Why anti-smogonards always come up with the most competitive illiterate takes?Ice have dogshit defensive power they will never survive long enough to consistently land a OHKO, Sheer Cold only got banned as collateral damage of the other two versions being the better OHKO move.Snow cloak same, it only got banned as collateral of the sand version being the better one.If those "fix" ice type then show me how those in-game make Ice types dominate ranked.
>>55759728>None of those would fix Ice typeEvidently they would since Ice type is fine in the actual game.>Ice have dogshit defensive power What is Snow?What is Snow Cloak?What is Aurora Veil?>Sheer Cold only got banned as collateral damage of the other two versions being the better OHKO moveSheer Cold is literally the best OHKO move in the game because the fewest Pokemon are immune to it.>If those "fix" ice type then show me how those in-game make Ice types dominate ranked.Did you miss the regional with hundreds of players two months back where someone literally won the whole tournament with a Ninetales Articuno team? It wasn’t even a niche thing either, multiple people were running a similar setup.
>>55759264...Based!
>>55759264My Tauros with STRONG DOUBLE EDGE no diffed him for me.
>>55759638>Yeah bro I love how you made Poison and Steel complete dogshit because you felt the need to remove Fairy for no reason.Steel would still be incredibly strong, easily a top 3 type, if Fairy were removed. If it's not strong "enough", maybe give it back its Dark resistance and then give Dark back Pursuit to keep Ghost in check too.As for Poison, it's still not good even with Fairy around. If you really want to buff its offensive power, make it SE against Water. Water could use the nerf and Poison could use the buff. It's pretty easy to justify, too, what with a relatively small amount of pollutants being able to completely BTFO entire aquatic ecosystems, not to mention the mercury poisoning going on in the oceans.>They can already easily switch in on Frostbite because Frostbite already doesn't exist. You're doing nothing solving a problem you invented.Yes, but Frostbite would be a check on other offensive types that wouldn't exist for Ice. Just like Fire type physical attackers get a huge bonus over non-Fire types because they're immune to Burn, Ice types would get a huge bonus of non-Ice types because they can't be Frostbitten.>You think people use Fairy and Ice types to hit Dragons super effectively?Iron Valiant is one of the strongest and most commonly used Pokemon in standard play. Fairy has been one of the top 3 dominant types in OU since its inception even despite there being so few (good) Fairy types. As for Ice? It would be if not for Fairy type being better at the role of Dragon slaying.>They already have enough ins if you're actually good at the game and know how it works beyond "durff fire beat grass"You're insane if you think Ice types have ins currently. Even when Chien Pao and Baxcalibur were in OU, bringing them in was their only drawback. It's hard to bring in Ice types when they eat massive shit from hazards and don't have any resistances. If your Ice type isn't immediately threatening a KO upon entry, it's entirely useless.
>>55759696>People do use freeze as part of their foresight and game plans. That's simply not true considering there is no reliable way to inflict it and it's only seen as a nice bonus. Just like people don't factor in Flamethrower's burn chance.
>>55759889Ehm... Tauros Double-Edge vs. Dragonite: 112-132 (29 - 34.2%) -- 2.4% chance to 3HKO

Kind of crazy how Yawnfag still justifies Ice being so shit when Ground and Rock exist.>Muh Snow!Sand has been raising Rock’s SpD since Gen 4, by the same x1.5 amount (Yawnfag doesn’t even know how either works and thinks its x2)>Muh Snow Cloak Gambling!Sand Veil exists, is on tons of Ground types as well as various other Pokemon.>Muh Sheer Cold gambling!The best user of an OHKO in the game is Ting-Lu, a Ground type using Fissure. Ting-Lu actually has the bulk and typing to use Fissure effectively, which matters way more than immunities.>but muh webm of Ninetales vs Toxapex!Ninetales uses it at a niche option because its movepool is so barren and can at best try to Hypnosis it. Plus Ting-Lu sees tons more results.>Muh Freeze gambling!Would you rather just deal 75% to Toxapex with Earthquake or deal 25% and hope you freeze, they don’t thaw out immediately or dozens of other factors that would prevent/cure freeze? Like lmao just kill them. Speaking of>Muh glass cannon type!Ground is better than Ice offensively. Literally just kill the Steel and Fire types with Earthquake lol lmao. Like what they gonna do?

>>55761084That kike can't even finish any of the easy games without savescumming until his """Sheer Cold""" garbage goes off. That's why he has to pretend his betters enjoy some """campaign""" because apparently even that shit is too hard for him.
>>55761084>Even top VGCfags like wolfe have made videos on how much Ice type sucksWolfe is a content creator he has to pander to retards for a living
>>55754492Tbh this is a bit too much. I think changing only resistances should be enought, the Ice type is pretty good offesively as it is now.Trade its Ice resistance for a water resistance and give it a Ground or Dragon resistance should be enough.Also Freeze into Frostbite.
Threads like these are why I have Ice in my filter now.
>>55761084Wolfe is a good player but his videos are full of garbage takes. He thought Tinkaton would be good purely because of the “FAIRY/STEEL IS LE BEST TYPING IN THE GAME” meme campaignshitters like to spam.
>>55761084I don’t want to fuel the fire, but OHKO moves are sometimes viable in VGC and BSS and even Sheer Cold.It’s eitherA. Really bulky Pokemon that can afford fishing for OHKOs vs really bulky Pokemon (see Lapras and Ting-Lu)B. Your movepool/coverage options are so lacking that you might as well run it as a last ditch effort to break past a wall. (See Ninetales-A running it sometimes)But yes generally speaking OHKO moves suck.
>>55761936But Tinkaton is good, it has insane support move pool and won a lot of top places in the early days of SV.The only reason it fell off was because they added Chi-cunt, niggerpon heartflame and further buffed Incelroar as the most busted supporter that outclasses everything else..
>>55763275>But Tinkaton is good,yeah maybe in fanfic clown world where everything better than it is banned>and won a lot of top places in the early days of SVeven in regulation A it was trash.
