*Warning long rant ahead Warning*
While I can't entirely agree with Valentime, he does hae some good points. A type being "frail" or anything is only a generalization. There will always be exceptions. And yes, there can be "weaker" types, whether offensively or defensively. For example, poison. The only type it can hit super effectively is Grass, and there's a type that has an immunity to it, making it poor offensively for the most part. Face it, Pokemon aren't meant to be equal. Every type cannot be dominating in any given metagame, and there are constant shifts with new movesets being dicovered, as well as the Pokemon brought by each new generation. Currently, Grass is a rather "weaker" type, in comparison to types like Ice and Steel. I'm not sure who said Steel was unbeatable(WTF?), but it can't be denied that Steels have many advantages, with 11 resistances and and 1 immunity, as well as a pool of diverse Pokemon. The point is, saying that Grass types are just as good as any other is nice and all, but it's just simply not true.

I'd really like to see that Shay min sweep..... O_o
