Steel should resist Dark and Ghost again
>>
They should go down the middle and restore just the Dark resist. Dark could use the nerf and it won't hurt Ghost at all.
>>
True but only if those resists are inversed and become quad weaknesses for Steel/Ghosts specifically
>>
>>59239614
Make Steel resist Dark again and remove Steel’s resistance to Psychic
>>
Why does steel resist dark anyway? The only non-resists that make sense are flames (melting), ground (earthquakes damaging buildings) and ghost, along with maybe psychic (intangible)
>>
>>59239614
Indeed it should, it's existence is to be the defensive type
>>
>>59239847
Because aegislash
>>
>>59239847
Steel resists everything physical other than fighting.

>But Dark was originally special
Yes and I'm convinced nobody at GW realized that.
>>
>>59239614
Give it back dark res, remove fighting weakness, give it an electric weakness. Ghost can stay neutral. Steel should be the ultimate physical tank.
>>
>>59239859
Ground tho
>>
>>59239977
Oh right.

Also I typed GW rather than GF. Must still have Warhammer on my mind.
>>
>>59239972
>Remove fighting weakness
Honestly, I feel this should be a thing for normal.
>>
>>59239981
I never got that weakness either. I don't see why punching the rabbit is more effective than burning it. If they wanted it to have a weakness something like psychic or ghost would make more sense. I think it could probably work fine with no weaknesses though.
>>
>>59239614
Fire should no longer resist steel.
>>
>>59239614
True
but Psychic should be super effective against Steel as a trade off

I suppose it is their gimmick
>>
>>59240584
They literally have a Pokemon who's entire quirk is bending steel spoons with its mind and decided that Steel should resist it forever.

Psychic doesn't need to be both a shit offensive and defensive type to communicate that Dark and Ghost are also good.
>>
>>59239614
Steel should resist dark.
Rock should resist ghost.
>>
>>59240601
if steel didn't resist psychic, he would simply break them, but he cannot because they resist him
>>
>>59239987
The reason is because Fighting is "super normal" and Normal already deals neutral damage to itself.
>>
>>59240601
What if it the Alakazam line gets a freeze dry move that works on steel types.
It's a way to keep some psychics fresh.
>>
>>59240607
Steel is extremely easy to break once it bends anon.

No steel you are already the the strongest type, the fact that steel is just allowed to resist 10 fucking types is egregious
>>
>>59239972
Steelix stays winning
>>
>>59239847
Steel is basically the slayer of all things weird in mythology
>kill fairies
>kills espers and shapeshifters
>kills demons
>>
>>59240614
by this logic steel is super rock and rock resists normal, so steel should be immune to normal.
>>
>>59240617
You break a lot of steel with your psychic powers?
