I still don't understand why this isn't rock

Ice and poison are my 2 favourite types so naturally I'm miffed there hasn't been a single one yet. I dunno if they're allergic to basic ideas or something but something venomous that freezes you once injected with it always felt obvious to me.
>>
>>750206263
Sneasler probably would have been Ice/Poison but I guess someone intervened to save it from being a shitmon.
>>
>>750205045

>>750206171
Big rocks = rock type
Small rocks = ground type
It's made of clay which is many tiny rocks, like sand.
>>
>>750204581
I've tried my hand at a bug dragon design and a few of these other unused types before. I based it on Phrictus quinquepartitus, the dragon-headed bug.
>>
>>750207126
I also made a Normal/Rock type. The region is based on the great lakes so I based it vaguely on two different native american folklore creatures but i forgot the names of them

Some sort of garden gnome inspired design would be cool for Ground/Fairy.

Ground is dirt. Its confusing because a lot of rocky looking Pokémon are ground and rock.

There's a bug/ghost type Pokemon now? What's it look like?
>>
>>750207642
its still only Shedinja
>>
>>750204469
Normal/Ice could be an early route rodent in a cold region
Normal/Rock could be a dodo fossilmon where the gimmick is that it sucks
Poison/Ice could be based on permafrost viruses
Ghost/Rock could be a fossilmon that is revived through occult means instead of science
Ground/Fairy is very easy. Just make a mon based on a fairy armadillo
Fire/Fairy could be a fire sprite type monster
Bug/Dragon could just be given to Yanmega
Can't think of anything for the other 2
>>
>>750207379
pretty good idea, I was thinking prairie dog because it rhymes with fairy.

I remember somehow thinking Scolipede was bug/dragon. How disappointing it was realizing otherwise.

I like this one
>>
>>750206497
It's actually a dragonlevitate
>>
pokemon clover has a bunch of these
my favorite is the bug/dragon type
in all honesty, Yanmega or Flygon should be bug/dragon
Fire/fairy looks easy to do too, a will of the wisp type mon

the giraffe part is normal, the tail is psychic

No they didn't, retard. And gen 3 had the ONLY cool ones until then, Rayquaza and Salamence. Garchomp, Hydreigon and Dragonite are still some of the most OP non-legendary, mons today, and this thing exists.

>>750211360
Normal typing is a good type to have though, because there are a ton of powerful normal type moves that gets a power boost when used by a normal type pokemon. the decision to use it does seem arbitrary though. a lot of normal types tend to just be "mammal with an elemental flair" like Bibarel or Pyroar, but that doesn't explain why something like Beartic can't be a Normal/Ice type. It also doesn't really explain why there is only one fully evolved pure flying type, and why most of the other ones tend to be normal/flying.
>>
>>750204939
Anon, we have had a dragonfly Pokemon since Gen 2, and the fact that the bug has "dragon" in its english name doesn't mean that it's a fucking dragon.
>>
>>750204581
bug/dragon is terrible typing
>>
>>750206072
why do fossils not count? Like wtf? Sorry Cradily, you don't count?

Also Ice/ground is Swinub/Piloswine/Mamoswine. Im not further auditing this, it's trash.
>>
>>750204469
What does it even mean to add "normal" on top of another type?

For the other types would be pretty easy to create a design

>Poison/Ice
Ice snake
>Ghost/Rock
Haunted tombstone
>Ground/Fairy
Gnome
>Fire/Fairy
Admittedly I don't know what fairy type entails so flaming pixie or something
>Bug/Dragon
You could just make a big ass dragon with an exoskeleton that looks like a bug, or more interestingly a mini size dragon

Double type when ffs? As in, natural double typing, not OP terashit. Double STAB double weakness.

Anon shit + 0 is still shit.... is what I wanna say but Ghost is so OP lately so yeah I agree.

You now have to give it a Dragon type move. That's not Draco Meteor I guess.

>>750222863
He already gets outrage, which is all you ever need provided enemy fairies and steels are eliminated

Post your favorite type combination, and why

For me it's Fighting/Ghost (irresistible STABs, not weak to knock off)

What if there was a pokemon game where there is exactly one mon of every possible type combination and no more? You could probably allow multiple single types as starter evos, but then they all evolve to different duo types. And maybe if you're feeling saucy some that only ever evolve one type. So you have to come up with exactly one mon for each type combo, and no more than that (depending on aforementioned extra ideas), but you have to make one of everything.

It's weird that they said it's made of clay instead of rock anyways when it's based on viking runes that were carved into stone. Feels more like they thought rock/ghost would be too strong so they put in the clay line after deciding it would be ground instead.

gen 7 has Ultra Necrozma Kommo-o and Drampa.
