The physical/special split is reversed tomorrow (fairy becomes special). How does the meta-game change?
Most Dark types basically lose their STAB
Most Ghost types basically lose their STAB
It would be shit
Azumarill would be very sad.

>hyper beam is now just a complete copy of giga impact, power gem is now useless, and countless other examples of moves that either become useless or no longer make sense
>Mixed attackers are no longer a thing
>But most importantly, pic related is completely and utterly fucked
Zard X becomes shit
Bulu becomes shit
Weavile becomes shit
Kyurum B cries

>Garchomp would still be OU
>Tapu Lele and Pheromosa would still be OU
>Some moves like Power Gem and Earth Power would be completely pointless
>M-Gyrados and its regular form drop significantly
>Many Fire types drop
Dark being Special and Ghost being Physical should have been reversed imo.
