To bring some attention in, it's time to do another type I don't like.

Steel

6) Bisharp
5) Ferrothorn
4) Excadrill
3) Forretress
2) Skarmory
1) Steelix

Steel-types, one of the things Gen V did right. There were so many I actually wanted to use after going through the full game, but didn't get to use them (as shown why they are below the three I have used and like).

Bisharp- Awesome look, moves are somewhat lacking as is speed, but he's normal for a Steel-type

Ferrothorn- Tank for a Trick Room Team. The only problem is the dual Fire weakness, but that's easily taken care of.

Excadrill- This Poke on a Sandstorm team? Will be seen from here on out. Those abilities + That Drill Run. Quite a nice Poke.

Forretress- Now to the Pokes I have used. Bug/Steel was started with this guy and Scizor, he's honestly quite good and due to only having one weakness is somewhat of a life saver.

Skarmory- Dem wings of pure blades are epic. Only problem is that he has the speed of a Steel-type and one fairly pathetic moveset. But he was that one Poke I came across in Gen 2 and had to catch right then because he looked that cool.

Steelix- Now to explain something, back in the Flying contest, I said I disapproved of Scyther as a Flying-type due to Scizor losing that for Steel. It's not simply that reason, the true reason is that to lose flying is to lose flight. Scizor still has wings and can fly, but loses that typing for turning metal? Steelix however is the evolved form of one of my fav Gen 1 pokes. I don't even know why I like Onix, but I do. Now, I traded Onix with the Metal Coat in Gen 2 for this guy. He looks intimidating with the spikes protruding his original rocks, and the face was crazy. I guess I have him here mostly for nostalgia.

Also, Jasmine's Steelix. I have it.

Maybe that's why I don't like Steel that much, my favs aren't exactly the best combat-related at all. Just very defensive, but that's all Steel-types.
