    wow..I can answer alot of those questions....bug can beat psychic because at first,in the original R/B/G/Y games,psychic really has no weakness,so they just made up one,...bug....

    dragon is so powerful,that in term,ya gotta fight fire with fire,catch my drift?...

    same applies for ghost....

    grass doesn't conduct electicity as much,therefore giving it a chance to attack...

    physical fighting can't reach the sky.....obviously....

    bugs are good with ground,bucause they are tossed around in earthquackes all the TIME!!for peat's sake,they sometimes EAT dirt!!!
    guys..I got alot more....any questions?.....

    I don't get how water is weak against grass. I mean, certain types of rivers, lakes, ponds etc need plants like algae to clean it out and other plants like that. and wetlands also need plants. (My dad's a horticulturist! ^^) So I don't get it. :\

    There's a reason why you're not supposed to stand under a tree during an electrical storm. It's because trees (which are plants and thus are lumped in with grass itself) provide a short pathway between the sky and ground... which only makes them more of a target to be hit.

    Of course, the fact that they're also filled with fluids isn't helping their case, especially if one takes into consideration the water = weak to electricity logic provided by the anime (and the games, for that matter).

    Ergo, I'd say that, yes, plants (and plant-like Pokemon, i.e. Grass-types) conduct electricity rather well.

    Actually, they do...

    They both (in the right amount, of course) block oxygen from reaching the fire, thus putting it out.
    I don't get why flying is weak to rock. I mean, isn't it a little hard to throw a rock at a flying bird?
    Not if you're strong and accurate. And do you know what happens when a heavy object hits something in flight?
