Ok, /vp/, but what if:
Scenario A
>Now only Poison types learn Toxic
Scenario B
>Now only Poison, Grass and Bug types learn Toxic
Scenario C
>Now only Poison, Grass and Bug types learn Toxic
>But Grass and Bug can only inflict normal-PSN status, while Poison types inflict toxic-PSN status
Scenario D
>Everything can still learn Toxic
>Toxic only inflicts toxic-PSN only when used by Poison Pokémon, inflicting normal-PSN status otherwise.
Scenario E
>Everything can still learn Toxic
>Toxic only inflicts toxic-PSN only when used by Poison, Grass OR Bug Pokémon, inflicting normal-PSN status otherwise.
*Keep in mind that all of this would be also retroactively applied to Pokémon transferred through bank, making them lose the move if they are not compatible anymore, etc*
Which scenario would be the best?
How would any of these scenarios change the metagame?
Would this buff the Poison type enough to nerf Fairies?
What if they did something similar to burn, making only Fire types give the ATK-reducing effect, while other types just inflicted a burn that took away energy with no other effect?

We're discussing things hipothetically, even if it's not realistic that they would do this, asshole.

No matter what scenario, Stall rejoices.

>>31289245
toxic is a necessary evil. it's the best counter to stall mons.
Just run aromatherapy or heal bell if you hate it that much OP.

I don't hate it, I just think it would make Poison types more relevant.
Same with every fucking Water type getting Ice Beam.

Only poison learn toxic but other types can toxic poison their targets if they poison them twice. Like using poison powder twice = normal poison, again = toxic poison, a third time = it fails

>All Poison types can learn Toxic by default, along with certain specific pokemon of other types (as per usual with TMs). This includes many, but not all, bugs and grass, Umbreon, any other 'poison lite' pokemon, and a few random shits for no apparent reason because GF

Scenario F
>Lower the accuracy of Toxic to 70 or 60
>Could be even lower
Poison types never miss Toxic anyways.
