>Steel's Dark resistance was moved to Fairy, but nothing gained a Ghost resistance

Which type should have gotten the Ghost resistance?
>>
>>57208999
I would say bug
And no not because "its le bad" but to prevent ghost and fighting from having perfect coverage
>>
>>57208999
fairy
>>
>>57209129
Steel should have never lost the resist IMO it made ghost stab too good, and fairy should have either been SE against fighting or resisted it not both.

Bug
>its le bad
>Why would bugs be afraid of ghosts?
>Both scary, lot of thematic overlap
Ice
>its le bad
>Ghosts are cold, Ice doesn't mind cold
Fighting
>doesn't need a buff but you don't have a lot of thematic options here
>compensation for new Fairy matchup
Fire
>same as above but moreso
>this type already has six resistances what are you doing
>>
>>57208999
Steel should have never been nerfed in the first place.
>>
>>57208999
Water. Ghosts can't cross water
>>
>>57208999
fire. Fire's list of resistances is long but somehow generally whatever, except fairy and maybe grass. Purifying flames are perfect for warding off ghosts too, flavor-wise.
>>57209162
fire resists shit nobody cares about 90% of the time, and fairy. giving it a ghost resist would be crazy for balance.

Rock could work too since apparently being immune to status wasn't enough for Garganacl so they tacked a Ghost resistance onto its ability too
>>
>>57209241
That's vampires
>>
>>57209269
and Vampires are ghosts.
>>
>>57209250
>Fire's list of resistances is long
Not as long as Steel.
>>
>>57209279
No shit, that's steel's whole gimmick. For whatever reason though, fire just resists a fuckload of random shit.
>>
>>57208999
Fairy also.
>>
>>57209297
>random
Fire's resistances seem logical to me, yes, even Fairy.

Fly by poster here

Just allow bugs to do neutral damage to fairy or ghost or both please. I haven't been convinced of a reason they have bug resistances yet

This also makes sense as gems or salt are commonly used to control spirits
>>
They need a way to make Normal relevant again so Ghost isn't as overpowered. Something should also gain a Dark immunity, Dark is easily the best offensive type right now.
>>
>>57209491
fairy resist
>>
>>57209494
>Fairy & Normal now resist eachother just like Ghost & Normal are mutually immune.
I might buy a Pokémon game just to justify emulating it on my PC if that would ever happen.
