Working on a couple of other alt-type systems, using the same 18 Types with 1-2 per mon schema

>>59022666
Based, I'd say Bite/Wind for the entire family

These are cool. Not as new Types. But as an additional classification system on top of Types just for Moves. It would be nice to see in the Move summary screen considering how many of these are starting to build up over time. Maybe it could be called something like Method or something. So like Stun Spore would show Grass as the Type and Powder as the Method. Using these for Pokémon is stupid, they really feel more suited for only Moves.

Some of the ones I like from that list in your image are Light, Powder, Screen and Aura. With Psychic being my favourite actual Type, I really decide which would be my favourite of these new classifications.

I absolutely agreed that embracing them as a concurrent system is great, but there's nothing stupid about considering them for the PKMN themselves. The majority already fit well into the improvised schema I posted in the OP, and indeed some would fit better then with the current 18.

The goal of this thread is a productive thought exercise about what PKMN would be like in an alternative timeline, as well as how the current game could be fleshed out into a richer experience. I've draughted up a couple of other models during the downtime earlier today, and am updating them for the Kanto 151 in this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KZ7AWiZE0L_wLZ3mK1jORYRIqPdgfhEMGvdFMMflRow/edit?usp=sharing
