Serperior is still cool, it just suffers from the curse grass starters being mono type. Grass really needs some other typing to help out its matchups in most of the games' stories, since villain teams love using poison types.

There is a case to be made for water due to a technicality in your wording: misty is still part of gen 2, just not the johto side of that game's journey. So that also depends on where you choose to say the gen 2 post game starts, after the first league fight or after getting all 16 badges and rematching them. (Going by the whole of gen 2, the only type there without a specialist is ground as giovanni is no longer part of the gym leaders) Still, even not counting this, water stands above the other 7 gen types due to it having 2 gens with 2 water specialists: wallace and juan in gen 3 and cress and marlon in gen 5

Rock is a favorite of mine, despite all its problems. It crushes people offensively, but it isn't nearly as good defensively as it feels like it should be. The great irony is that with its great offensive coverage, you would want high speed to work with it, but since rocks have that "resilient" feeling to them, a lot of Rock types are built for defense, which means you still get ruined the second someone pulls out their starter, since they have a 2/3 chance of beating you just based on their first pick, lol.

At least you want some Rock types. You never want an Ice type; you want to hit Dragons, Flying, Grass, and Ground well and Dragons and Flying will always be dominant. Furthermore, ever since Generation 7 you want Aurora Veil. Those are the only reasons you want Ice type on your team, and since Gmax Lapras and Double Screens exist, not even those are absolute. Even Hail, as nice as it is, is only nice because a Hail team is at best 1/3 Ice types. Up until Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, you couldn’t even get an Ice type early. Furthermore, Ice wants to be fast and hard hitting and have a good moveset. Very few have all three.

Can confirm psychic has issues in black/white. I played white recently with randomized wild pokemon and in my first route I picked up a Meloetta. At some point I thought "My god, psychic IS the worst type!" Seriously there are so many dark types in Unova. So you can't even use psychic moves on so much. And that's just a type that's immune to psychic. There are plenty of trainers with resistances or super effective moves against psychic types.

Serperior, Lucario and Virizion were basically my team for my first ever playthrough of Black 2, it was my first time ever playing Pokemon and I didn't overlevel. Never felt a grass type in Unova could ever be a burden.

My list of worse types for each region Part 2 * Unova: Psychic Type I had a tie between Grass, Psychic, and Flying but ultimately went with the Psychic Type. In Black and White , the only psychics we are introduced to are Gothitielle, Beehyleem, and Reuniclus. There are many dark types in Unova that can be a nightmare such as Zoroark, Liepard, and Bisharp. In Black 2 and White 2, they got a little better with returning pokemon such as Metagross. In terms of moves, the only offensive moves introduced were Psyshock, the slightly more powerful variant Psystrike, and the ultimate psychic move Synchronoise, a psychic type variant of Fire Blast. However, there were plenty of defensive moves such as Heal Pulse, Telekinesis, Stored Power, Wonder Room, Magic Room, Power Split, Heart Swap, Guard Split, and the semi useless Ally Switch. They faired a bit better in Black 2 and White 2 but not by much although they were better than the Grass type. * Kalos: Fighting type Moving away from Unova and the last of the Pokemon of the games to use sprites , we begin with the 3D models and the 3DS era. To start off this new era, We begin with X and Y and the Kalos region. Overall, the region felt a bit rushed than previous generations. For the worst type of Kalos, I was debating on the Rock or Fighting type. I ultimately chose the Fighting type. With X and Y, we are given a new type: Fairy. Similar to the whole issue with gen 1, the Fairy type was introduced to balance the Dark, Fighting, and Dragon types. Also, Fairy was introduced to balance both Sableye and Spiritomb because neither one had any weaknesses in their prior generation as one was Ghost/Dark and the other vise versa. In addition to a new pokemon type, a new form of battling came in the form of Mega Evolutions. Now Fighting not only had to contend with Pokemon like Fearrow and Gothitelle, they had to contend with Mawile, who was now no longer a pure Steel type, becoming Steel/Fairy. In addition to Mawile, several other pokemon were converted to Fairy types. As for offensive moves, we are given Flying Press. For defensive moves, we are given Mat Block. Also, Power Up Punch returns but with a drastic nerf. Power Up Punch had a base power of 60 in gens 4 and 5 alone and can boost your Attack by 1 stage. However in gen 6, Power Up Punch still raises the user's attack by 1 stage but the base power has been dropped to 40. * Alola: Rock Type Traveling from Kalos, we arrive at the Alola region. The Alola region was the first region to introduce regional variant pokemon from previous generations. In addition to regional variant pokemon, a new method of battle came: Z-moves and Z-Crystals. These crystals are required to unlock a Z-Move. Z-Moves are moves that are powerful than regular moves but with a catch: You can only use a Z-Crystal once per battle. While there were many awesome Z-Moves from this generation, some weren't so great. While going through the move types of Gen 7, there is one that is really bad from the rest. And the title of worst type for Alola goes to: The Rock type. While in previous generations, the rock type could dominate opponents with pokemon such as Golem with Explosion. However, as time went on, more Water and Grass types were introduced. And most rock types usually have a x4 weakness to one or both in addition to the Ice, Ground, Fighting and Steel types. For my decision in Alola, I excluded the Z-Moves from that list. The only move that was introduced and is NOT a Z-Move was Accelerock. It's just a rock type variant of Quick Attack. However, Lycanrock is the only one who may learn this move. As for defensive moves, there's literally no defensive moves for the Rock type in gen 7 other than Sandstorm (Gen 3), Rock Polish (Gen 4), and Wide Guard (Gen 5). * Galar: Ice Type Finally, we depart from the 3DS era and into the Switch era. To Start off, we head for the Galar region in search of the worst type for Sword and Shield. With many new pokemon, it came at the cost of cutting the pokedex in half and eliminating the National Dex entirely. Pokemon available in previous generations now had to wait to get into Sword and Shield. Most have returned as of the Crown Tundra and Isle of Armor updates. However, the remainder of the Pokemon cut may or may not make it into Sword and Shield. As for battle mechanics, both Mega Evolution and Z-Moves were removed from the game and replaced with Dynamaxing and Giantamaxing. All pokemon except the Pikachu and Eevee from Pokemon Let's Go cannot Dynamax. Also, a select few pokemon can Giantamax. In addition to new moves being added, some had to be removed. These moves range from Barrier to Sky Uppercut. For the worst type of Galar, I chose the Ice type. While many Ice moves have returned, Ice only gains one new move. Excluding the Dynamax and Giantamax moves, the only new Ice move introduced is Triple Axle, a 20 base power Ice Move that hits three times, but each time increases the damage by 20. At the 3rd hit, it deals a total of 60 damage and is physical. To add insult to injury, Dialga has returned in the dlc's while Duraludon was biding time sweeping teams that used pokemon like Avalugg. With Dynamax, Ice types almost stand a chance but not quite. There were also no defensive moves introduced in gen 8 for the Ice type other than Hail (Gen 3) and Mist (Gen 1).

You know almost nothing you said for Galar makes sense Why every Pokemon is unable to Dynamax? Did you forgot about Darmanitan-G and Eiscue? Why are you talking about Dyanamax Adventures? Why Duraludon specifically is a counter to Ice type? With those dumb argument you could say every type is the worst Like this, Steel bad cuz Coalossal is a Rock type strong against Steel, also they can't Dyanamax (for some unknown reason) and they got a suicidal move, they are really bad.

I say Malamar alone disqualifies Psychic as the worst type. Reversion breaks every single totem fight, Ultra Necrozma included. It is also worth mentioning that the Ghost, Ice, Psychic and Dragon types are very difficult to properly judge their effectiveness for multiple reasons. 1) Availability. All four types are extremely rare to find in the wild early on, but that's just the tip of the iceberg, pun intended. All the available dragon types and about half of the other types have their basic stage pokemon be disproportionately weak compared to their evolved forms, wich are usually only obtained by the Victory Road due to requiring external means to evolve or a ridiculously high level, and the powerful attacks of each type are usually locked to late game TMs or post game tutors, and only learnt naturally when reaching the final evolution. This makes them harder to train compared to other types, especially when they come with slow exp gain. And this makes them seem weaker than they really are. 2) Coverage. Their STAB attacks hit at least neutrally a large portion of Pokémon, and the ones that do resist them can be be hit for effective damage easily with the massive arsenal wich they have access to. This doesn't sound all that amazing until you consider... 3) Brokenness. As said their basic forms tend to be weak, but the moment they evolves their stats jump to becoming the best you can possibly get. Dragons are unmatched in BST if you only count fully evolved forms, Psychic and Ghosts have special attacking stats that rival the Dragons, usually on the special side, and so do most Ice types on the physical side (with some exceptions like Medicham, Gallade, Mimikyu and Abomasnow who favor the other stat). Because of this they have an easy time tearing apart enemy trainers with brute force alone. 4) Buffs. Psychic and Dragon types have easy access to Calm Mind and Dragon Dance respectively, wich boost their two most important stats to terrifying levels. Ghost and Ice types don't have as easy access to buffs, but many do learn Curse, Nasty Plot, Swords Dance and Calm Mind and the ones that do make excellent use of them. And let's not even talk about Shell Smash Cloyster. 5)Offense is the best defense. It doesn't matter how much common are the types you are weak against if you can one-shot them before they can even touch you, and as discussed they have zero problems doing exactly that. The types themselves aren't very good, but their integrants tend to be some of the best team members you can pick, in spite of their defensive shortcomings. This is why I would disqualify all 4 types for the run for best and worst type of the generation, their best integrants are just too good not to use and carry their teams to victory with ease, no matter the match-up.

JPR, I joyed these past 2 videos on this topic very much and for the most part agreed with everything you said. However I don’t think your assessment of Galar was accurate. In both games if we go off of a pure type, electric only has one clear cut victory with Nessa, and only easily beets Leon’s Charizard ( and if you pick Scorbunny forcing him to have Sobble) then 2 of his Pokémon. Where rock beets Kabu, and Melony in shield. As someone who played an electric play through and stoped before battling Piers because we saw no way of beating Raihan without completely over leveling him, I just don’t see how electric is not the worst.

another point against rock in SwSh is that melony's lapras is a freaking beast that should not be underestimated, and it's definitely within the realm of possibility that she KO's your rock types with surf before they can even attack, especially with how slow most rock types are. I know I had a tough time even with my chandelure (which i caught as a litwick in kabu's gym), although that's probably from the fact mine had a -SpDef nature (OUCH) and the fact that fire is neutral against lapras
