Bug types were the coolest ones to me as a kid

Pinsir, Beedrill and Scyther all looked badass

Pity the actual typing is useless in game

It needs a buff for sure. Has too many resistances and weaknesses against it vs strengths.

Super effective against Grass, Psychic and Dark
But 2x damage against Fire, Flying, Rock, and Poison

It resists Grass, Ground, and Fighting
but is resisted by Fire, Fighting, Flying, Poison, Ghost, Steel, and Fairy.

Being resisted by Ghost, Poison, Fighting, and Fairy should be taken out imo

It's also one of those weird types where it shares a resistance against and to the same.. Which is fighting.

Why fairy resists it is beyond me. Also what's really funny is that bug and poison were super effective against each other in gen 1, but it got changed to be resisted by poison, while poison doesn't do SE damage against it. Crazy it got nerfed hard, and there weren't even that many powerful bug moves in gen 1
