I don't mind the Fairy type (except for Moonblast being 95 power and Dark having another weakness), but I just don't like most of our current pool of Fairies. :C

Too be fair, Dark is now neutral on Steel, which does help a lot in lower tiers.

I dislike most of the Fairy pokemon. Fairy might as well have been Pink type :s

Also Bug resistance why

Still though. The proliferation of Dazzling Gleam means things like Pangoro are damn near worthless now. Pangoro was one of the 'Mons I was most looking forward to using, too. :/

Fairy is kind of the new Dragon, just that most Fairies at this point suck.

Quality over quantity. Every Fire-Type spams Flamethrower/Fire Blast/Flare Blitz anyway, what's the dif?

They were trying to buff both, it's only logical.

Except they didn't buff anything, it just made fairies stupid hard to take out.

Then again, like I care. I don't even play Pokemon anymore

That's the thing though. Stats are also important. While Fairy is an amazing type, they have shitty stats. Vice versa for Dragon.

Plus, the introduction of Aegislash alone is enough to keep away plenty a Fae~

@Karis-Don't blame the Faries. It's stats and type were already shit without Fairy there.
Its Attack and HP are great, and it has the same type as Scrafty, who was a proper beast in Gen 5 (offensively and defensively). The introduction of Fairy just made the Dark/Fighting type very inconvenient.
