>I'm not even asking for bug to be super effective against fairy, I'm asking for fairy to not resist bug.
fair enough
>>58103746
>That doesn't explain why bug had to be resisted by fairy instead of being effective against it.
yes it does, fairy became the best type in the game because it's immune to and super-effective against the former best type in the game, you want to do the same to Bug. it makes zero sense
>b-but muh poison and muh steel!
poison and steel generally don't have very good attacking moves, bug does.
>Butterfree evolving early doesn't mean that you can't have a high power bug type later in the game.
yes it does because it's the bug type's identity to be an early game shitter type. It's like saying you can just have a weak early game dragon type, you can, gen 6 notoriously did this, but then Dragon is just like any other type out there and loses its identity, which guess what, it did in gen 6
>Your early beedrill would still be shit against all the other gyms. It'd just not be shit against fairy.
if it's not shit against the best type in the game then it's not shit period
>This would actually be a great moment to also teach players that a weak pokémon can beat a more powerful one if it has favorable typing.
this is taught to you by your starter pokemon, or at least it used to be. There's a reason why in gen 1 your starter doesn't start out with a STAB move and why Brock's pokemon are quad weak to 2 out of 3 starters

>Bug can't have an identity if it isn't shit?
it can, it just happens that its identity is to be shit
>Wouldn't fairy counter be an identity
then make a new type to have that identity, just like they made Fairy to counter Dragon instead of changing Bug to be the Dragon counter for no reason
>You're just an apologist who thinks the devs are always correct.
I think the developers of the highest grossing media franchise of all time know the design of their own games better than fucktarded campaignshitters on /vp/, yes.
