Waluigi7 12/06/17 12:22:35 AM #5:	Can someone tell me why this is okay? I know it may sound like a minor complaint, but it's really starting to get on my nerves.

LightningAce11 12/06/17 12:44:20 AM #9:	Ice and Rock are one of the best types in the game. Gamefreak just make the mistake of putting them on defensive pokemon.

I really liked the Gen 1 type chart. It was pretty much balanced, if they just made Psychic weak to Ghost like it was supposed to be. --- Gonna go out on a limb and guess that you are a trump supporter -UnfairRepresent <cite>Waluigi7 posted [p:891675120] in Why would ...

Xenozoa425 12/06/17 1:19:30 AM #16:	They are excellent offensive types. Ice beats Flying, Ground, Grass, and Dragon. Rock beats Flying, Fire, Ice, and Bug. Many Pokemon have dual typings that put them at a disadvantage with a weakness to one of the types that Ice or Rock beats. Pretty much every flying type, for example, gets wrecked by Rock. Stealth Rock takes 1/4 of their health, just for bringing them out or switching. Poor Charizard, Articuno, Butterfree, and others lose 1/2 their health because of double Rock weakness. --- "Your flesh is a relic, a mere vessel. Hand over your flesh, and a new world awaits you.
