There are so many things that I hate about the Pokemon Meta-Game. Gamefreak has introduced so many douchy techniques, and left some of the more classic, nostalgic techniques in the dust. Serious! Ice pokemon, which used to be decent in Gen III and IV are now useless in Gens V and VI. And the introduction of Stealth Rock and Fairy type? HORRID!

Fairy was actually a good addition. Kept those fucking Dragons in check.

I'm not saying Dragons didn't need a nerf, but fairy wasn't the right one for the job... It makes negative sense. It's not just that they deal x2 damage to dragons, it's that dragons CAN NOT deal damage to them with STAB! Plus, the second type of moves many dragons have (fire) is also weak against fairy type... They basically took some of the best offensive types (dragon, fire, and dark) and just randomly threw together a type that is resistant to those types.

You got that backwards, Fire resists Fairy and Fire does neutral damage to Fairy.

grass types need a buff
