What is your favorite type combo? Even if it hasn't been used yet.
>>
>>59214138
Bug/Dragon
>>
Fire/Fairy will be tons of fun. I just hope it's a great design.
>>
Poison/Psychic was always the one I wanted most. I wished Reuniclus was it, and I seethe every time I remember that awful monkey. I always wanted a hallucigenic frog mon.

besides dialga and duraludon/archaludon, shame dragon/steel was wasted on a white female barney with diapers instead of haxorus.
>>
>>59214225
Amazing typing, gets filter....looks like dogshit. I hate the design so much even if the base stats were 600 I would never use it.
>>
>>59214138
Psychic/Steel, Ghost/Dragon, Ghost/Dark, and Dragon/Fairy are all objectively cool as fuck. Also agree with Steel/Dragon.
>>59214199
That’s a weird ass looking Yanmega

Cottonee and Whimsicott are cute
Morelull and Shiinotic are alright
Tapu Bulu is my second favorite Tapu
Mega Meganium has an interesting ability
>>
>>59214138
Dark/Fire mainly cause of Houndoom, although I like Incineroar and Chi-Yu too. I'd say my favourite type combination after that is probably Steel/Psychic, it's a very cool combination to see show up even if it's probably the biggest victim of the Steel nerf in Gen VI.
>>
>>59214196
Galar slowking is cool
>>
>>59214138
Fire/Fighting despite the memes
the ultimate offensive typing, but also a fairly competent defensive one

Dark/Fairy could be very cool because of the potential yin/yang designs, but I think the entire Grimmsnarl line looks terrible.

>>59214138
Dark/Fighting

Fire/Fighting. Yes I know it's overused, but that's okay; it means I have a lot of options. And most of them are cool.
>>
>>59214652
>the ultimate offensive typing
in terms of swag/logic ? maybe
but ingame, that'd be Ghost/Fighting

>>59214138
Out of the three type combos I wanted most as a wee genwunner, bug/electric delivered, rock/dragon (specifically a t-rex) big time delivered, and then electric/dark... Oh...

I waited almost 20 years for a grass/fire type mon, and got the most predictable , lame ass gay ass mon imaginable. Prepare to be disappointed. Don’t believe me? See >>59214213 and >>59214357
>>
>>59214702
>>59214357
It’s wild to me that Sableye wasn’t retconned to Dark/Fairy when they added the type, it’s not a fucking ghost, it’s a little cave goblin thing.
>>
>>59214939
Can you not call Ogerpon lame ass gay ass please?
>>
>>59214926
Yeah... they're not great either. I dislike them. I just didn't want to make them take the brunt of it.
>>
>>59214138
Bug/Water
Surprisingly underused.

these things have one of the worst bites/stings you can get, hurts like hell. It's real fun living with these, velvet ants, and paper waspers.

Dark/Fairy
Werewolves are my favorite monsters in modern media and I think Dark/Fairy would fit perfectly.
Both Dark and Fairy are associated with night and the moon, plus Fairy has a folklore angle.
Offensively, Dark and Fairy pair really well together. Currently only 10 Pokemon resist that combo.
Defensively, Dark/Fairy's weaknesses match traditional werewolf weaknesses really well, too.
>Steel: Werewolves are famously weak to silver
>Poison: A plant called "Wolfsbane" is toxic to werewolves
>Fairy: Since Fairies are linked to the moon, and the full moon makes werewolves turn
I like Grimmsnarl, but that Pokemon has a completely different identity and function from what I see.
Dark/Fairy werewolf pseudo-Legendary with high Speed and Attack would be a dream come true.
>>
>>59215106
I see why they never made it in. Strong bugs are a GF taboo.
>>
>>59215040
Um sweatie, there are three Dark/Ghosts. Sableye, Mega Absol Z and Spiritomb.

I get wanting something original over a regional variant; but Galarian Slowking is a very clever twist on the original that makes sense and fits the personality tropes of psychic and poison well

Where is the non-legend fire/water?

I still dislike it. But that's why I said I didn't wanna give them the brunt of the hate, I can see what they were going for. Still, not what I wanted, and not a good rep for it, imo.
>>
>>59215040
Actually 4 designs, with mega sableye and mega absol z also not missing
>>
>>59215024
>>59215106
>>59215342
I'm pretty sure there was a prototype design based on it during gen 5, someone who remembers more of the freakleaks might be able to dredge it up
>>
>>59214246
I don't know why I like Electric/Ice so much, but I wish we had more.
>>
>>59214138
Steel/rock or flying/steel, far and away so if based on percentage of mons with the combination and mons that I like.
Theoretically psychic and normal.
>tfw no series of normal slowpokes but human like or field egg group based forms

I was really was hoping the first Normal/Ghost would be a bed sheet ghost like thing. Don't know how I feel about a Zoroark variant getting the type first.

Rock/Dragon is a cool type.

Rock is overall my favorite type.
>>
>>59214213
What sorts of designs would you want to see with steel/poison? I wanted this combo for a long time as well but never really had any specific ideas for what it would materialize as
>>
>>59214138
I'm a fan of Normal/Steel, which Snifit has in Mariomon. It's got useful resistances so I built it as a Follow Me support for the Glitz Pit.
>>
>>59217235
Maybe some kind of creature with a rusty shell? Or something with poison-tipped metal claws?
>>
>>59217235
Not him but I always thought a rust-based pokemon or a quicksilver/mercury pokemon were obvious picks. Those and something more standard, like an Aggron-type "eats metal" mon that's also venomous. Now that I think of it, a regional Aron line for a place that has a high concentration of lead or mercury developing a Steel/Poison typing would be pretty slick.

Grass/Fairy is my favorite, too, and I am pleased with what exists.
>>
>>59214196
I remember as a kid a made a fakemon that was a floating man-made Giant Snake/Worm box legendary that was a psychic/poison type with the ability levitate and a signature move that was super effective against steel types
>>
>>59217571
Anyways for me my top three favorite type combos are:
Dark/Fire
Ice/Electric
Steel/Flying
>>
>>59217571
As a kid I thought they would make aggronite before mega-evolutions existed, and that it would make Aggron take half damage against super effective hits.
Even after megas were introduced, I thought Aggronite would have some sort of ability in games where megas didn’t exist.
To this day I am still coping and thinking this may happen any day now.
>>
I always end up listing too many with these.
From existing combos, water/ground and steel/flying
From those that don't exist, would love to see ice/poison and rock/ghost. Ice/poison mainly because I really have no idea what you'd do but it should be something that really debilitates its prey, and rock/ghost simply feels like a no brainer with how often you get inanimate objects or old ruins possessed by ghosts in folklore
>>
>>59214138
Conceptually probably normal/ghost. Frankly I like normal dual types in general, gives it a down-home feel.
>>
>>59217580
you managed to get as close as you could to predicting the future with aggronite and filter, don't get greedy lil nigga
>>
>>59217585
>Ice/poison mainly because I really have no idea what you'd do
Arctic/antarctic frozen virus is a common and fun idea. I've also heard one of those frogs that freezes itself for the winter. You could potentially go with something based on ice9 too, maybe.
>>
Back during Gen2 I always said how cool it'd be if they made a Dark/Water type pokemon, and how it could be a shark... then Gen3 happened and introduced Sharpedo and it wasn't what I expected at all. I was a tiny bit disappointed that my idea wasn't a cooler, eviler shark.
