Strength is now rock type, what happens to the meta? It makes

Strength has a ridiculously high level of distribution. Some Pokemon who could benefit from hit:

>Forretress
>Pinsir
>any Rock type
>Meganium
>Sceptile
>Breloom
>Shiftry
>Mawhile
>Medicham
>Sharpedo
>Spinda

literally almost everyone

Strength description: The target is slugged with a punch thrown at maximum power.

If anything, it should be a Fighting-type move, especially considering that Machamp is now the only Pokemon that can learn it.

Brelooms are already running Rock Tomb anyways. Strength will not be used on it because breloom needs the added speed drop and the Technician boost makes it more powerful.

Trust me. Breloom is my favorite pokemon

Reminder Charizard is the backbone of transportation around Alola yet doesn't even exist in the dex. Those ride Pokémon get no recognition.

>>31810267
yeah because HMs are still a thing in other regions, just not Alola. Did you ever talk to the surf girl? They're obviously just Pokemon who have been taught TMs/HMs.

Anyone who needs a rock coverage already runs either Stone Edge or Rock Slide, save few exceptions who can't learn either. Rock wouldn't become much more threatening, just a bit safer since you'd have a better Rock Slide. I don't see that many pokemon that couldn't learn Rock Slide before running Strength, so Volcarona's checks would remain the same
