Pokémon Type (im)balance was influenced its JRPG roots.

What if we brought up weaker types? In this video, we make adjustments to the type effectiveness of different pokémon types, in hopes that this gives bad typings some love. The goal isn't to make every type perfectly equal. It's to reduce the distance between the F tier types and C tier types. It'll probably need testing and revision, but that is part of the process. This is not purely explained from a competitive or casual standpoint, so hyperfixating on Smogon, VGC, or single player will definitely go against the point of the video. Many ideas were changed and scrapped during the conception and development of Pokémon. Did you know there was once an point in conceptualization that your opponent would take away some of your Pokémon if you lost a battle? They decided that would be devastating for the simple JRPG more about collecting and trading. Feel free to use the mechanics or ideas for Pokémon Mods, Romhacks, or even your own game. It's a common enough idea that I wouldn't try to claim ownership of something anyone would come up with.
