Three Rock-types were relevant this year at Worlds. Is the typing still bad?
>>59556352>Is the typing still bad?it would be even better if other rock types could actually learn accelrock
>>59556354Give Tyranitar Sucker Punch and Accelrock
For the longest time, I just assumed that Rock resisted itself.
>>59556358I assumed it was weak to ice since forever.Rock should honestly resist Dark the same way it resists Normal. Unless you are using Fighting type techniques, things like bites and slashes should not be effective.If I wanted to make it better I would also make it resist Electric, mirroring Ground's immunity and Steel's neutrality.
>>59556352Yes
>>59556373>things like bites and slashes should not be effectiveTyping's matter. Makes sense when you accept typed energy drives the attack (that's why the anime moved away from "jaws clamped on pokémon as Bite attack" except for moments of humour), meaning a set of jaws made of Dark energy should be treated as any other Dark type. I mean, we DO see that with the normal typed Slash (because normal type energy IS less effective against Rock).
>>59556602>Anime>energyIt still matters anyway, since SP. DEF is a thing. No idea what your argument was.
>>59556620Mn-hmm. The examples you're crying about manifest PHYSICALLY, so I'm not sure what you're bitching about, other than "autistic shitwipe, spergs autistically".
>>59556358Gen 1 and 2 got you, huh?
>>59556691I have no idea what you're trying to say or argue.
>>59556356>AccelerockGet in line
>>59556354Fippy bippy
The Rock types were only there because the current meta is the Y-Charizard meta.VGC will never return to a FFA rotation with some legendary bans. Enjoy your roster of like 20-40 Pokemon.No more Pachirisu kino or even the random ass team the current champion had before participating in Worlds.
