Ice should resist electric. Explain why not.

>>32238923
electric doesnt need nerfs
also thats dumb

The resistivity of a material decreases with decreasing temperature, thereby increasing the electrical current driven by a given potential difference.
So yeah it all checks out, good idea OP.

>>32238923
Ice is fine

>>32238923
Why should it? If anything Ice should be weak to Electric because its just frozen water

>>32239002
Wait nevermind I thought you said electric should resist ice.
You're retarded OP.

>tfw any potential thing to have Ice resist is either a shit offensive type already or a two way streak

the real question is why doesnt ice resist water

>>32241169
Ice should resist ground and flying.

Why ground? Fuck ground.
Why flying? Fuck flying.

That wasn't terribly hard.

>>32241177
Because if it's water, it already has a higher temp than the ice. Therefore, eventually it will melt the ice.

>>32238923
because it should resist water and flying. everyone know that you silly anon :)

>>32238923
i named my castform Tex because texas weather changes as the drop of a hat.

>>32243333
That is most states in the US

will this finally fix the ice type?

>resists electric
>immune to itself
This makes absolutely no sense

>>32243362
Water is only conductive to electricity due to dissolved ions. Ice sheds ions as it freezes, making it a poor conductor.

Also, you can't freeze ice (it's already frozen). I think being immune to itself makes perfect sense. Why would something like Avalugg be affected by ice beam?

Water mons shouldn't resist fire but they do

>>32243391
Water has a very high specific heat capacity, so it's actually highly resistant to heating and cooling. Instead of water, it makes more sense for flying to be weak to fire, because it's very easy to heat air (and birds are flammable).

>>32241177
The true question is why does every single Water-type learns Ice moves.

>>32243398
Yes but water generally doesn't like getting hit by anything 1250+ C and we're constantly shown in the anime where fire pokemon produce temperatures around the 8000-9000 range

>BUT MUH STARTER TRIO

>>32243605
It really is insult to injury.
