Ever notice how Pokemon went downhill around the same time the Fairy type came into existence?
>>

Yeah, doesn't the TCG pretend fairy type just doesn't exist anymore?

Fixed it for you, introducing industry plant shill forms to force shillmons and punish people for not having the "correct" favorite was far more damaging than knocking dragons down a peg
>>
>>58845828
Pokemon stopped being good when they stopped making good spinoffs
>>
>>58845834
to be fair like half the types don't really exist in tcg and are represented by something else

It's entirely the fault of Nintendo shilling to retarded manchildren who refuse to grow out of KANTOOOOO. Just because the fairy type was introduced at the same time, doesn't mean it's the cause of this.

>>58845828
What's actually *bad* about fairy type. Explain.
Because the only real problem with fairy type is from a competitive perspective, as fairy type was introduced to counter all the strongest types at the time. And comp shit doesn't impact the actual series
>>
>>58845899
not OP but it doesn’t make sense in universe. it doesn’t consistently represent any concepts.
>>
>>58845845
>fairies
>megas
neither killed the franchise, you retards. It was X and Y being rushed and not fully realized
>>
>>58845899
decided to fuck Bug type even more for no reason. Otherwise, Fairy is fine
>>
>>58845902
This has literally never mattered and will never matter. Fighting type doesn't represent anything useful "oh they're like martial artists" then they can be normal types. Type autism doesn't matter to anyone normal
>>58845922
Fairy resists bug to counter u-turn
>>
>>58845902
>magical folklore creatures
>sweet food
>love
>the moon to some extent
That's 4 concepts
>>
>>58845902
That’s Dark-type too desu, I don’t get why they decided Dark-type was needed to counter Psychics. It’s so nebulous
>>
>>58845930
Why not just actually nerf U-Turn
>>
>>58845968
Because that makes U-turn weaker across the board instead of making a specific type that's better against teams relying on u-turn pivots
>>
>>58845930
>Fairy resists bug to counter u-turn
this feels like the same "balancing" as their brilliant handling of Dark Void Smeargle
