I was talking with my friend earlier today, and he suggested the idea of a flying type E4, I scoffed thinking it was stupid to have another one, but after checking, it turns out Electric, Flying, Water, Grass, Rock or Fairy Elites.

Now fairy is pretty obvious, it just got introduced and they wanted ot make the champion have the special selling point to the game, but why all those others?

It seems so odd there's no electric or water E4s given the fact those are argueably very good types, and grass and rock while being bad, can still have some decent sets. And flying really surprised me, with how common it is, being the second most populated type, it has no E4s.

It is astounding how many times the ghost, dark, psychic, fighting and dragon types are reused for E4s, and even ICE is used more than these types. its just absurd. I'd like to hear your opinions on this, and maybe even some ideas for E4s of these types.

I still should've checked further, my bad. However, my point for all of the other types still stands.

Well, I'm talking about specifically typed E4s, and i already corrected myself regarding Seibold

Dark, Psychic, Fighting Ghost are a separate core that interacts neutrally against the Elemental core.

I'm guessing it's to shake up the kids who play by encountering type specialties that aren't easily one-shot by the starter

I'd consider Alder a Bug Champion.

Just because deep down I know he's the closest we'll ever get. Might as well count it.
