>ice doesn't resist fairy
why the fuck isn't that a thing? if fire gets the resistance, so should ice
Explain.

Fire resisting fairy is probably only a thing because of Mega Charizard X
>>32635298
the idea behind fire not giving a shit about fairy is, I think, that fire burns nature, is a dstructive force, whatever bullshit you can think of.
so, if a thermical extreme resists fairies, so should its opposite
>>32635304
It's actually because fairy types are supposed to be part of the forests look at the types that resist fairy and then look at the ones that resist grass.
>>32635304
it also helps keep blaziken, infernape, emboar, and incineroar from having a fairy weakness.
blaziken gets lots of favoritism.

>Energy makes fairies
>Ice is absence of thermal energy type
>Fairies aren't made of non energy
>>32635304
Fairy resisting Bug is probably only a thing because of Gardevoir's new typing.

I'd like to know what whas the thought process behind the balancing of Fairy.
Besides the obvious "uhrr dragons", shit like "fire should resist it, and it should resist bug". I'm not sold on the idea of the taking this decision just for the sake on one or two pokemon, regardless of them being fan favourites. GF cares about balance (in a terrible and idiotic way), the only istance I can think of them nerfing a type because of one pokemon is Aegislash.

>Water is not weak to Poison

>Psychic and Ghost don't resist Fairy

GF think about japaneses fairies, wich are related to the forest
There are forests with snow you know, but forests with fire....
>>32635378
But fedoras love mlp?
>>32635403
but too much cold is as harmful to nature as fire
Doesn't winter btfo fairies, if so
>Fairy took Ice type's niche AND isn't even weak to Ice
