ITT /vp/ tries to 'balance' the meta by buffing/nerfing moves/abilities/mons etc.
And no you can't remove anything.
Easy
Ice no resists flying and dragon
Poison is SE on water
Fairy is NE on grass and psychic
Fairy is neutral on fire
Bug is neutral on fairy
Psychic is ES on Fairy
Electric is SE on steel
Inner Focus: aside from not flinching, the user has a 50/50 chance of avoiding a status condition.
Healer: increase the chance of healing a partner to 70%, the ability could also heal the user.
Parental Bond only does 25% damage and there's no second power punch boost
Gale Wings takes the same priority as all the quick attack moves
Landorus gets Pressure
Rotom Wash gets volt absorb (Give all the Rotom's abilities that make sense)

Fuck you, Gamefreak did it. Remove Talonflame's HA, just like they did to Chandelure.

No thanks. GF knew what they were doing with Fairy's resists.
>>25794126
well one they didn't remove the HA they changed it, and two Chandalure's HA was never released while Talonflame's is.
>>25794706
Literally do not give a fuck. That one, ONE fucking Pokemon out of over 700 invalidated an ENTIRE GODDAMN TYPE from the metagame ONE GENERATION after they were made half-decent for once in the series. FUCK. FUCKING. TALONFLAME.

Except for the fact that Pinsir, Beedrill, Heracross, Scizor, Scolipede and the Fire/Bug thing whose name escapes me all still have merit in OU

And still gets one shot by flare blitz. And his priority is NVE

How is Fairy nerfed? There are already plenty of grass/poison pokemon that already resist fairy and there are plenty of fire pokemon that need that resistance.

Get out.
Grass is takes neutral damage form flying
Ice resists ground and flying
Bug is supereffective against bug
Rock resists Dark
Fire loses fairy resistance
Grass gains fairy immunity
>>25793059
Bug SE against Fairy
Ice type resists Dragon
Fairy is NVE against Bug
>>25793254

9/10, too harsh on fairies but great post!
>>25795951
>>25797278
I agree with you, FB isn't common on
Talonflame, hence the scizor.
Scald has 20% to burn.
Hurricane has 20% to confuse.
Knock off is weaker.

Make ice types not complete ass defensively, while reducing their crazy offense and giving grass a buff. Also makes earthquake less of a "I can just spam this and it hits everything except these 2 really shit types and floating things"
Water needs another weakness, it's a god tier type in UU.
Psychic is just underwhelming entirely, poor offensively, poor defensively and needed a buff in some way and fairy is a really strong type right now.
Slight defensive buff to rock (i don't think many rocks are very good conductors of electricity anyway)not that it matters since they are all rock/ground anyway, also reduced birds by making rock stronger.
Another nerf to birds (i don't think many birds in real life that resist being punched other than cassowaries).
Bug needed a buff and it gives another resist to knock off.

>>25801362
Nerf things like pixilate and aerilate so you don't end up with a 100% accuracy almost 200 power after STAB moves with huge amount of pp. Same deal with mega mum.
Make it so the pokemon itself goes fast, not whatever it baton passes to goes fast. Nerfs BP chains, but makes it so you can outspeed certain chickens with some scarf mons and revenge kill.
The aura break change actually allows this thing that has something that looks like it's intended to counter those other 2 things actually counter them, yveltal not so much but xerneas still destroys it. Make Xerneas choose between hp ice and hp fireit gets aurora beam so it can use that I guess but that's fine because aurora beam is my favorite move and it forces xerneas to use basically 2 hidden powers which lets something else check it
Gale wings should be obvious.
The iron fist change is so it isn't a smaller boost than tough claws on less moves, also tough claws in general is basically a weaker huge power but is somehow justified by giving it to things with already very high attack.
>every status but sleep now has a 20% chance to be cured of status every turn (50% with shed skin). Something holding flame/toxic orb will never self cure themselves of that status.
>turn order is decided after mega evolving
>hitting yourself in confusion now uses special attack if you tried to use a special attack when you hit yourself
The turn order thing is something I think a lot of people like, it fucks over sableye and really helps things like banette and anything else with a big speed boost. I don't care if it gets diancie pushed into ubers.
The status wearing off thing is just because I'm salty about losing games to scald burns or paralyses.
The confusion change makes it so it doesn't fuck over physical attackers as much as it does special ones, also nerfs swagger a little bit.
>>25801367
>knock off power reduced to 40 but deals 2x damage when knocking an item off (no longer memes the heck out of something with sticky hold)
>scald power reduced to 65
>thunderwave accuracy reduced to 85

>foul play power reduced to 65
>brave bird and flare blitz recoil increased to 1/3
>stealth rock pp reduced to 5
>sky uppercut hits super effectively on birds
>synchronoise changed to typeless damage
literally everything just nerfs moves that are way too powerful in my opinion to be honest with you family. Chatter is the most broken move in the game right now, this just turns it into a nuzzle clone. Foul play is another nerf to swag play, the flare blitz is more for xzard.
The stealth rock nerf makes it so it's less of a certainty you will get it up if they have a defogger or something.
>life orb deals its damage even if the attack is blocked by protect or volt absorb or type immunity or whatever, rock head blocks life orb recoil, reckless damage boost works with it
>leftovers increased to 1/12 heal, can only be eaten 6 times before it's consumed entirely.
>assault vest now blocks the user from using non attacking moves if it is tricked onto you earlier in the turn
>rocky helm decreased to 1/8 damage
>things like absorb bulb, cell battery, etc now reduce the damage by 1/3 when they proc
>super effective damage reduction berries now reduce by 3/4 if it's 4x effective
life orb makes it so you can't play asrecklesslywith it, the rock head change helps things like non mega aerodactyl, dinosaur dude, and some shitmons. the reckless change helps mostly shitmons and staraptor who would be nerfed from the other changes.
leftovers change and rocky helm change are there because fuck stall
assault vest change is literally only for klutz lopunny which I like
absorb bulb and friends change is there to maybe make them another viable item.
GF should hire me.
>>25793059
Ideally no legendaries but failing that buttfuck the genies from here to Timbuktu
Mega-Kanga only gets 10 boosted Atk as opposed to 30
Dark Void banned
Give the following pokemon megas: Flygon Marowak, Snorlax, Scoliopede, Nidoking/queen
Bring back the gems
>>25801370
Kill yourself.
Literally every one of your ideas has been terrible.
The world would be a better place if you just died, your ideas are horrible shitposts and no one should hire you.

Not that guy, but a few were good. Like the Knock Off thing, but I'd bring it to 50.

How the hell do you make a good marowak? If you give it 100 atk. Thick club will do more damage than the mega
>>25801646
Is dynamic punch machamp broken too?
Boy, are you retarded.
Chatot has nothing going for it, the fact that it has chatter, nasty plot, boomburst, and heatwave and its still fucking shit should be enough for you to determine that it doesn't need nerfing, especially when nothing else even gets chatter.
>>25793254
This is really great idea but I think fairy should be normal effective against psychic
