I'm very pleased with the rise of the Bug type in recent generations, even if they remain a mediocre type now. Considering they were an utter plague on the 1st generation games, they've been upgraded significantly, and actually have a place on teams...
...I'm a spectator of the meta-game. xD
Funny fact, Twin Needle is the only attack that can poison a Steel-type.

While bug types may be overlooked, Poison types really do reign on that matter.
I mean, what have you got in there? Toxicroak or Weezing? *thinks...*
Poison doesn't even provide good coverage against other types, it's only effective against Grass and Bug (the last doesn't even count for lack of usage in metagame).
What would be better than a STABed, Sludge Bomb with a decent base stat on attack with its relatively high percentage of inflicting poison would balance things a little more. But no, it's been excluded all these gens.
