How does this change the meta?
>>24682545
Weather is broken again.
It will basically become Sun v. Rain wars every game.
>>24682545
Chlorophyl becomes useless.
>smokescreen is now a field move
how does this fuck things up worse?
>>24682570
Or would that be a double speed boost?
>>24682573
Combined with the omnipresent Stealth Rocks people would be losing half their teams to chip damage and shit would just be about who can get weather oh the field and keep it for 1 turn.
>>24682545
>steel damaged by rain
lol m8 stopped reading desu
>>24682584
What is rust?
>>24682573
>virtually a Fog-inducer
Defog is now even more useful
>>24682589
what is stainless steel
>>24682601
>implying Pokemon are born with natural stainless steel
>implying that the type wasn't just named steel because metal type sounded stupid
>implying all pokemon are made of steel anyway
>>24682621
then that's just further reason why they shouldn't rust you dumbass
>all ice types have restored HP by hail
just this one thanks
>>24682627
All metals rust you twat
>>24682621
Well Steel as a typing resists Water so everything indicates that they're made of stainless steel and shouldn't be hurt by rain.
>>24682630
what about pokémon that aren't made of metal you fag
skarmory for example according to the pokédex just has hard as fuck skin because it constantly rubs it against thorns and shit when it's young
>>24682672
water is the one that resists steel m8
>>24682675
>Skarmory's steel wings become tattered and bashed in from repeated battles. Once a year, the battered wings grow back completely, restoring the cutting edges to their pristine state.
>Skarmory's steel wings
>>24682672
>Steel as a typing resists Water
You're wrong Water does neutral damage to Steel, and Water resists Steel

Weather Wars: The Empire Strikes Back
>>24682701
ok I give up
>>24682722
meant to quote >>24682692
>>24682545
>not all water types lose 10% health every turn in Sun
its called Evaporation
also Grass types should Absorb water attacks by default
>>24682800
I was considering adding both of those things but I had already posted the OP
>>24682692
if a pokemon learns steel wing thru tutor/tm or any other means, what actually happens to its wings?
>>24682589
Shit that happens over a long period of time. There's a reason Water isn't SE against Steel.
>>24682545
>all grass types and fire types raise speed in sun
>Charizard Y has drought
>STAB drought boosted Fire Blast/Heat Wave coming off 159 SATK and ~159 speed tier on 2nd turn
Sounds like a nice and balanced idea.
>>24682545
Kill the Ice type some more, why don't you
