We can all agree with >>>56456933 that the fairy type ruined pokemon and is a pointless thing added since nobody was asking for a dragon counter and that is a balanced type
I'd be 100% okay with it if they made it weak to bugs. bug type needed help and GF refused to extend a hand. I will never forgive.
>>56458488People who make pointless hate threads just to spite harmless appreciation threads should be taken out back and shot.
>>56458488nah dragon was broken after the phys/spec split ruined the game balance.
>>56458488Just say it: you can't train a Poison-type.
>>56458488>>56458492
Fairy type is cool and having a counter to dragon is great but I miss when gardevoir and her evo line were pure psychic
>>56458488No, honestly the folklore based types are cool
>>56458488The problem wasn't that fairy type was added in an on itself, but that it wasn't properly balanced beyond being a nuke against dragons. GF could've called it the magic type, or the light type or the mystic type, and it would've done the same.
> screws over ice by taking away their dragon slaying monopoly> screws over weaker dragons by nerfing their type that wasn't that strong because of no SE stab except against themselves> buffs the real strongest type steel> becomes the new strongest type > screws over poison by snatching the fighting nerf from them and putting them in direct competition with steel> screws over people who wanted Non-Dragon type Psuedo legendaries because since dragon is nerfed so hard Gamefreak can give them all the psuedos without consequences> screwed over my 3rd favorite Pokémon of all time by giving it a quad weakness when it was already balanced by having a relatively low speed for an OU glass cannonFuck the fairy type and anyone who defended it.
>>56458488why isn't Normal super effective against Fairy?
>>56458503>nah dragon was brokenDragon-typing wasn't broken, Dragon-types were broken. There's a difference. No one was complaining about Kingdra or Druddigon. >the phys/spec split ruined the game balanceNo matter how hard you try to astroturf, no one will ever take this seriously.
>>56458503> no SE stab against itself> "broken"Outrage and Draco meteor had built in drawbacks.

>>56458563What u-turn needs is not a nerf to its BP, it to have it's distribution gutted to the ground like toxic and scald.
Just gonna....>>56454234
>>56458698non-argument ad-hominem nonsense.
>>56458709But enough about OP.
>One DECADE later and Dragoniggers are still crying about their 3edgy5u Boss-Type getting its first counter Fairy types should jusr passively make all Dragon Types on the field take double damage or something
You guys think fairy type is bad because it nerfed dragons for no reason? How about when they tried for YEARS to nerf psychic and they just kept beating it down, down, down, down. What the FUCK is gamefreaks problem? Why do they make good types and then nerf them? It's like if a firefighter started a fire and then claimed to be a hero by putting it out. Are they trying to cause controversy for publicity? Psychic used to be so cool man. The original pink type.
>>56458725>psychic type has become the worst type in the game and ghost types have become the best by a nautical mile>no one even notices because VGC fags cry about Incineroar and dragoniggers have spent eleven years crying about being emasculated by the color pink
>>56458531>No matter how hard you try to astroturf, no one will ever take this seriously.It does manage to turn a thread into a steaming pile of shit however.
>>56458698How is pointing out Kingdra was unfairly nerfed insecure?
Only glaring issue with Fairy is that nonsensical Bug resist. You know it is only there solely for U-Turn. Steel is the thing that is a massive mistake. Combinations like Fire/Steel and Fairy/Steel demonstrate the glaring flaw of the chosen resists and immunities
>>56458488>Not having a Pokémon with Steel/Poison movesThis is on you, anon. If anything, I only push the "make Bug SE against Fairy" idea, but thats it.Poison and Steel moves are easier to get, so maybe find some covering.
>>56458488>Gay Men Tantrum Thread
TOTAL FA(G)IRIES DEATH!!
>>56459170> fairy fag calling other people gayNigger trannies claimed Sylveon from the getgo.
>>56459208>Starts talking about trannies out of no whereYou do know most Fairy type mons are either predominantly female or 100% female, right?Hating Fairy type is like hating women, only Incels and Gays hate women.
>>56458533Balanced by only being resisted by steel types, which tons of dragons had ground/fire coverage for.Outrage and Draco Meteor are ridiculously powerful, of course they had drawbacks, as does Close Combat, Overheat, High Jump Kick, Hyper Beam, Solarbeam, ect.
>>56459208I don't remember anyone claiming Sylveon as a troon back in 2013. At most they memed about it being gay, but never really claiming it as a literal fag icon.Trannies do love their historical revisionism though... and bringing themselves up every thread out of nowhere.
>>56459249I like actual women not pink blobs
>>56458531>Dragon-typing wasn't brokenIt absolutely was. You don't play the game.>No matter how hard you try to astroturf, no one will ever take this seriouslyWhy would I care about the opinions of campaignshitters?
>>56459336I'm sorry they been annoying for so long I forgot when they started.
>>56459265The lack of SE hits balances out being only resisted by one type dumbass.
>>56459355>thinking SE hits matteryou don't play the game
>>56459355>can deal effective 180BP+ damage against the entire game>B-BUH MUH TYPE CHART SAYS IT'S NOT SUPER EFFECTIVE SO THAT MEANS IT'S BALANCED
>>56458488Does dragon even struggle with fairy these days? Dragonfags got tons of behemoths this generation. Out of the trio (dark, fighting, dragon) I think only fighting really struggles and even then they can fight back pretty decently. Darkfags can definitely go toe-to-toe with fairy
>>56458488>WAAA WAA MY LOW RISK HIGH REWARD TYPE CANT DOMINATE THE GAME ANYMOREshut up faggot
vp used Outrage!But it doesn't affect Fairies...
>>56459358They do. Having weaknesses to common attacking types negatively impact a Pokémon's performance.>>56459360Dragon Meteor gets weaker every time and Outrage locks you in and then confuses you. I played in gen 5 OU it wasn't as strong as you made it out to be. If you don't have anything that can outspeed or tank it that was on you.
>>56459615They should have just made better ice types.
>>56458517>Missing budget AlakazamFairy salvaged it gameplay wise
>>56459674>They doThey don't.>Having weaknesses to common attacking typesWhy would I care about weaknesses if I can KO everything because they can attack me?>>56459674>Dragon Meteor gets weaker every timeDoesn't matter if I get KOs wouldn't otherwise get>and Outrage locks you in and then confuses youDoesn't matter if I get KOs wouldn't otherwise get>I played in [fanfic format where pokemon are conveniently banned]How is this even slightly relevant to how GF balances the game?
>>56459678Making better Ice types doesn't address the reason why Gen 4-5 Dragon type is broken.
>>56459813They weren't that broken though. If you had a good ice special sweeper in OU that could Outspeed Latios everything would have been fine.
>>56459809Nigger you think weaknesses don't matter. STFU
>>56459674t. Latios
>>56459831>They weren't that broken thoughThey were that broken though.>If you had a good ice special sweeperMaking a single good Ice type Pokemon doesn't address the issue that I can mindlessly click Outrage/Draco Meteor against virtually the whole fucking game and win for free.
