Balancing the Nuclear Type

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Oh, it’s totally fine, I did not mean to offend you… just asking to be a bit careful when discussing nerfs and balancing…

To be honest, I see your point about wanting to use more Nukemon and therefor wanting to… balance them out. They’re great and I do like them for various reasons as well, with Xenoqueen being my favorite – Nucleon is just the flagship of those due to its ability.
However, I personally am fine with them how they are in terms of weakness and resitances, while I nevertheless like that idea of why this or that type shall be super effective/non effective against Nuclear for the reasons displayed and discussed. Plus, I don’t know if the devs care to do all that…

So, to sum up, I like your idea including Windos’ suggestion, but I’d prefer more Speed on Xenoqueen and maybe even Geigeroach, combined with a fixed (!) Fallout in general.

(...) As for immunities, just give it to Ghost types, as while everything in the nature world is affect by radiation to a degree, the dead would not give one ectoplasmic goob about it. They are dead, so what is Nuclear power going to do to them, make them slightly more spooky? (...)

This is definitely the best quote/pun you ever brought up. :D
