The only Uber ghosts are Giratina/Marshadow/Aegislash because of their obscene movepool/stats.

I don't care if you're joking, it's not funny.

That's a horrible idea, and that's coming from a ghostfag.

>Hippowdon used earthquake! it doesn't affect sableye
>It's standing right there in the ground, but nope, that's not gonna hit it

Expanding this atribute to all ghosts is insane. Even in some cases where it would make sense, like Aegislash, it would be even more insane since it is already very defensive

Ghost types whose ability already is levitate should get some other ability to avoid redundancy, meaning they would get something stronger AND get a free ground immunity. Ironically enough, shit like Golurk would become worse, as not only can other, faster ghost defeat it, but now any ghost can switch freely into its ground STAB, even if it would be neutral or SE otherwise. Palossand gets this collateral nerf as well.

This whole thing would snowball and end with ghosts getting buffed like hell, when shit that really would deserve this "floating" treatment, like all bug types that are clearly flying above the ground (beedrill, volcarona, dustox, venomoth) but aren't part flying type, don't.

And even then, if these bugs got it, that would mean there's no reason as to why floating ghosts (or any floating mon by that matter) shouldn't get the same treatment either, which comes back again into ghost getting an unfair buff.

The only way I can see something like this working is if things that float/fly but don't have the ability levitate or are flying types would get 25% less damage from ground types, with some bullshit justification like "they usually stay near the ground, but they have time to fly off before the whole ground attack could get to them, reducing damage taken, if needed".

TL;DR - It might seem like a cool idea on paper, but it's a clusterfuck when you try to apply it

No, buff Bug types.

True but most ghost types sport paltry base hp and usually are very frail to make up for being a good type I'm general.

Not sure what game freak was thinking with smogon sword.

I'm surprised no one has pointed this out yet.
Even with those buffs Decidueye would still be nowhere near OU.
