They focus so much on their mind they neglect their fragile bodies. It's like the fasting Buddha, he won't die due to bodily ailments but you could easily break his neck
>Diseases are cured/treated by medicines created by intelligent people. Or, telekinesis can physically remove poisons. Either way, it makes sense.
no it doesnt. thats stupid. psychic types dont sit down when fighting and manufacture some Benadryl. their mind attacks hurt them more. And telekenisis removing poison doesnt make sense at all. with that kind of shoe string logic you could make any type weak to any type.

>Poison is weak to Psychic
I assume they were just stuck with whatever the off handedly set out in gen 1 before they thought it was going to be a big thing and were kind of stuck with it.
diseases are cured by smart people, thats always been my best guess
It's about mind over matter.
It's this. Psychics are able to overcome physical constraints and go beyond their bodily shortcomings. Mind > body
then they shouldnt be weak to fighting

Being punched in the face is a bodily ailment.
Clear mind, healthy body
>Poison is weak to Ground
have you ever tried to poison the ground?
Do you not know what soil contamination is?
>what soil contamination is?
A super-powered ground that damages plants and animals?
Poisoning the ground so common in history that it even has a phrase to it; Salt the Earth.
>Garganacl
>Weak to Ground
What a shitmon
Have you ever tried to poison fire? or electricity?
>Poison is weak
Yeah, this one never made sense. Not to mention that Ground would still be a great offensive type even without being SE to Poison.
Try punching a hawk in battle

try punching a sheet of steel
Only way to eliminate nuclear waste is to bury it

>Still no radioactive pokemon
Water and Ground should be weak to Poison.
>fighting types are weak to flying
It's from the first manga of red saving his Pikachu on his bike when whole bunch of pidgeot attacked him his Mankey was sacrificed, great panel
It's funny how many weird type matchups feel simply natural because they've been ingrained into our minds since forever
>flying resist fighting
why
most likely because it's hard to hit a bird dead on, or punching something light and floaty like a feather is a pointless battle.
It's all in your head, bro. Poison isn't real if you have the mental fortitude to not be a moron like you
