    i'd say that failing to make examples of those who use derogatory slurs like that directly contributes to the normalisation of sexism, racism, etc.

     

    There. Right there. You're doing the same thing as everyone else in this thread. You're using quack psychology. You've made a claim, now back it up. Just because you've been taught all your life that saying the 'n' word somehow encourages racism doesn't make it true.

     

    I'm not showing my proof until your group shows yours. You made the claim first.

    The BW2 metagame is constantly changing just because of newly released event mons and others getting their dreamworld abilities. In reality, Ubers, BL, NU, PU, and UU are fairly stable, but OU isn't. I would agree that you can call a lot of OU players as "whiny", but when you have a mon like Genesect that is being used on over 45% of teams, you have a problem.

    They were actually debating whether or not to suspect SR a week or two ago. The move itself is so over-centralizing, but we have had it around for so long and we have all adapted to it that they decided against it. It really is the best move in the game. It neuters so many pokes that would trash the meta that they would need to suspect things like Volcarona if they banned SR.

    Yes, hail and sun would become much more used, and rain would fall in usage quite a bit. Sun is actually the strongest weather in the meta, but rain is much easier to use and isn't shafted by SR. I myself really like the sun, and the vena+duggy+cress teams are unbeatable.

    I don't mean ice and flying as a dual type. I mean just ice and flying Pokemon in general. Just look at Tornadus-T. That thing got banned because it wasn't SR weak and it had a good flying stab move. I really think that an ice/fighting or an flying/fighting dual typing would be game breaking. You could just power through the meta with Brave Bird + Close Combat.

     

     

     

    Ice/flying dual type is really bad since it has so many weaknesses. (rock, steel, fire, electric weaknesses and only resisting ground, grass, and bug)

    Essentially, all Pokemon within the "fairy" egg group have the potential to be fairy typed. (there are lots and lots of things in that group)

     

    They introduced them in the game to help stop dragons from being overpowered. I'm fine with this as long as the fairy type isn't immune to dragon. As far as retyping old legnedaries with the fairy type, I don't think it will happen.

     

    Now, if GF was actually smart, they wouldn't have needed to add a new typing. Honestly, the three most powerful typings in the game are flying, ice, and dragon. The only reason that dragon is more common is that all ice and flying Pokemon suck (generally speaking). Just look at how bad Staraptor and Mamoswine are, yet they are extremely powerful threats in OU due to their stab moves. If they really want to fix the balance, they should just have made a few good ice/flying Pokemon.
