Why do people hate Fairy type?
Because they're not confident in their sexuality, and take it out on cute things.

Pretty much this.

Because it was introduced to solve the problem with Dragon-type being too strong, but in actuality barely touched that problem at all (which was never an issue with the type so much as it was an issue with most dragons having high BSTs) and did more to harm Fighting, Dark, and to a lesser extent Bug.
>>31371674
Overpowered and too girly.Sylveon's dumb and busy design was a disappointing first impression.
because it's the new OP type
>>31371674
After stuff like Xerneas and the Tapus, the usual answer can't be the only answer.
Tried to fix Dragon by making just as on OP type
Only weaknesses have shit coverage
>>31371674
I like it. Sylveon a cute.
>>31371836
>Overpowered and too girly
pretty much
>>31371674
It wasn't named the Light type.
No, seriously. Most of the complaints wouldn't be there if it was named the Light type.
>>31371824
It also harmed Ice and Psychic types by taking their niches.
>>31371841
You can always use poison.
>>31371872
Basically this.
Players can't press outrage to win anymore
>>31371674
Sylveon is very cute so I would fuck HER.
>>31371978

>>31371872
Combination of these
>>31371978
>her
Going by the words in the OP pic I assume the sylveon is male.
There's not enough of the Fair Folk among them. Shiinotic was a good one, but what would it take to get a Grass/Fairy dryad or a Fairy/Dark banshee?
>>31371674
Does anyone have the Popplio version of this?
>>31371872
I Blame localization for this, idiots forget we have the evil type instead of dark type on the mind of the creators. I blame western fans for that shit.
Main problem with Fairies is that it is too good of a defensive typing. Granted, it has two weaknesses...but it's in the form of two of the outright worst offensive types in the entire game, meaning that most Poison and Steel types simply aren't good enough to actually do much against most Fairies.
If they wanted to smooth this out even just a little, they would make Fairy weak against Fire, with justification being that its already NVE against Fire type mons anyway for some reason. If you're counterpoint to this is "Well too many Dragon Pokemon learn Fire moves and that would make Fairy types pointless since Fairy was introduced to counter Dragons in the first place", I say to that TOO FUCKING BAD BECAUSE ICE HAD TO DEAL WITH THAT SHIT FOR 20 FUCKING YEARS TOUGH SHIT
>>31371698
This is the only answer this thread deserves.
>>31371674
It's a shitty op typing with bad designs. It's dumb power creep.
>>31372018
Not after that anon is done with him.
>>31371872
But light is Steel-type

>>31371674
fairy type more like lamey type
>>31372055
It's Fairy in the original jap
>>31371674
>fairy super effective on fighting and dragons
>le girl power beating that fucking patriarchy, yaaas queen slay, muh femminist gamez
Because they're kinda gay.
I like them though, kinda wish Bewear was fighting/fairy. Another GF blunder.
BECAUSE THEY RUINED AND KEKED DRAGON TYPES!
>>31372354
I'm talking about dark type being the evil type context wise, there was never the need for a light type as there was no darkness involved, unless you count shadow manipulation as the ghost thing.
>>31372393
More like bizarre otherwordly entity rules over inferior dragons and can't be punched, they are old school fairfolk lore wise.
>>31371674
Because it's new and according to 4chan, anything new is bad.
>>31372297
>and if your counterpoint is a legitimate argument I'm going to scream at you at allcaps that it's okay because it's a flaw in the type chart demonstrated by another type for 20 years
ok
>>31371674
Because they're mad the best type in the game isn't manly.
>>31372525
More like too manly, they can turn any dragon into a twink fuckboy
>>31371674

why aren't you fuckers banned on sight?
>>31371674
They didn't do what they were originally supposed to do, which was be an answer to dragon types. Instead, they hurt fighting and dark types way more than dragons. As the really common dragons like Garchomp and Salamence (both normal and mega) are fast enough and diverse enough to tackle fairy types head on.
>>31371674
because they got a gym before dark type
>>31371891
But poison is shit. Anti-fairy coverage is ONLY good because it hits Fairies.
If you actually packed non-STAB Steel or Poison before Gen 6, you would be called dumb.
>>31372737
At least poison types have been getting a lot better since gen V.
Heard you folks have a fairy problem.
>>31372787
Too bad Salazzle is as a frail as a toothpick and most Fairies, for some idiotic reason, seem to be able to run Psychic coverage
>>31372393
>>31371674
I don't. They fit my niche perfectly:
>I hate Dragons and wanted them nerfed
>I like Poison types and wanted them buffed
The only thing I DON'T like about Fairy types is that Play Rough is their only physical attack
Because muh balance made a type far stronger than any of the ones that were nerfed by it being created
>wants an Umbreon
>somehow ends up with a Sylveon
how
I don't hate Fairy Pokemon themselves, but I dislike Fairy type for taking Ice's niche as the dragon-slaying type.
Instead of just rebalancing the type chart, GF decided to shit it up even more.
>>31372857
they did this to it before evolving it
>>31372804
>being anti-feminist gets you labeled as Alt-Right now
Fucking lmao tumblr
>>31371674
It nerfs best type >dark
>>31372798
I don't know, Salazzle is still strong enough to deal some good damage (at least in my experience) to fairy types before going down.
>>31371674
Not enough of them. A lot of the unused type combinations are fairy.

Honestly people like this are the annoying thing to me. Because hey, maybe I like reptiles over pink cutesy stuff because I like reptiles over pink cutesy stuff? Insulting my masculinity doesn't make you right, it just makes you a twit. And hey, maybe it IS an OP type, something the "Lol u mad at fairies" crowd never addresses?
Honestly I do enjoy the designs of a lot of fairy types. Ribombee the the fucing ribomb, Tapu Lele is cute, I still think the type is OP and should be weak to either Fire or Bug.
>>31371824
It was the type- the fact that only Steel could resist dragon meant that you either have a Steel type to tank that incoming Outrage, or you lose. Of course, everything else you said also compounds this.
Fairies having a Dragon immunity was ok, but then making them super effective vs Dragon, Fighting and Dark, some of the most common attacking types, and then only being weak to Poison and Steel the two least common attacking types was way over the top.
Only thing that makes Fairies remotely balanced is the type being on shitty pokemon. The moment it's on good Pokemon... look at Xerneas and Tapus to see what happens.
They're just turbo assmad their edgy badass dragons like garchomp or hydreigon are getting rekt so they just say the new type is pure shit.
Psychic and Ice types got cucked by fairies, basically.
>>31371824
Why did they give dark to everything a ghost would have otherwise been good against?
I still think that is GF had decided to create fast, offensive ice types instead of trying to make them all slow and tanky we wouldn't need fairies.
>>31373395
Having Fairies be weak to Fire doesn't change much. Bug is a much better option, because the Bugs that are good will finally be able to use their Bug typing, and it further differentiates Faires from Ice.
>>31372393
Literal autism fairy type is based on fairy tales and mythical legends
>>31372676
>They didn't do what they were originally supposed to do, which was be an answer to dragon types.
If anything, they're an answer to Outrage spam than shutting down dragons. It's impossible for most Dragons to have 100% counters when Gamefreak keeps making their movepools diverse as fuck. Compare this to Electric types, whos movepools are mostly so shitty they rely on Hidden Power to even touch Ground types. Dragons should learn nothing but their STAB moves and poor coverage like Bug for Fairies to even check them properly. Tapu Bulu would counter Garchomp 100% if the shark didn't have access to Fire,Poison,and Steel coverage.

Fairy type had nothing to do with feminism. Is your fedora leaving a ring imprint around your head?
>>31372981

I know you joking
Because they fucked my Fighting-Bros over and didn't even stop Dragoncucks and their madness

Then why its japanese name is espeficic to the Tinkerbell type of fairy?
>>31373395
Grass would be better,because they don't share the EQ weakness with Steel and Poison.
