bug-Type Weaknesses

  • rock: The trope is that you crush bugs with rocks. You can choose not to though :)
  • fire: Insects are highly vulnerable to heat, as their exoskeletons dehydrate and combust easily under intense temperatures. A full-on Bug-B-Q.
  • flying: No matter how tough that little guy thinks it is, it's basically a crunchy snack to a hungry bird.

bug-Type Resistances

  • fighting: Between their tough exoskeletons, and their large numbers in swarms, they are able to skitter out of the way of brute force tactics.
  • grass: Bugs have adapted to use plants to their advantage such as camoflauge, or consumption.
  • ground: Many species of bugs have been shown to burrough and thrive underground - they thrive in subterranean environments.
