If you had to pick three new starter types(replacing fire, grass and water), what three types would you pick and why?
>>
all ghosts
>>
>>26395624
Dark, Psychic, Fighting
>>
>>26395639
It's shit, because Psychic is straight up NE to Dark. It's asymmetric. Rock/Flying/Fighting doesn't have that problem.
>>
>>26395639
/thread
>>
Ice, Ground, Steel
>>
>>26395654
so you wouldn't like fairy/fighting/steel either?
>>
>>26395624
Normal, Fighting, Bug
>>
>>26395684
fighting doesn't resist steel
>>
>>26395639
>Dark/Poison is a shadow arts user
>Psychic/Fairy is a cleric
>Fighting/Ghost is a spiritual fighter
>>
>>26395719
I really like this one for some reason
>>
>>26395639
>>26395684
>>26395719
>Fighting
Final evo is Fighting/Fire
>>
>>26395624
Fighting, Flying and Rock are the only ones that are equal to Fire, Water and Grass
>>
>>26395956
Anon speaketh the truth
>>
>>26395624
All 3 dragon type
>>
Steel Rock Fire
>>
>>26396095
I take it back, this is the best

Light, Sound, Cosmic.
>>
>>26395956
Or Fighting, Flying, Ice.
>>
>>26395956
Still not equal.

Fire resists Fire, Grass resists Grass, and Water resists Water, as well as resisting the type they are strong against.

There is no other 'perfect' type combo.

However, I would love to see a Grass/Rock, Fire/Flying and Water/Fighting triangle. I know Fire/Flying is a bit overdone but Fire/Rock is fucking ass, nobody should have to suffer that as their starter.

Honestly, I just want more Grass/Rock types. Best type combo.
>>
>>26396176
Light would be the same thing as fairy. It's not happening. Sound and cosmic are possible, but are not necessary
>>
Two starters.

Eevee, representing:
Fire
Water
Electric
Psychic
Dark
Grass
Ice
Fairy

And a normal type gecko/lizard/chameleon, evolving in to any of the following via different methods:
Bug (something akin to Flygon)
Fighting (reptilian kangaroo looking thing)
Flying (gliding lizard)
Ghost (skeleton lizard, lmao)
Ground (gila monster/salamander looking thing)
Poison (komodo dragon)
Rock (big bulky armoured fuck)
Steel (sleeker, streamlined bullet-train theme)

Normal and Dragon are discounted so each starter has 8 representatives, being the OG special and physical types.
>>
>>26396176
That dog died of a heart attack. Why do you have such a disgusting gif saved anon?
>>
>>26395624
Dark
Fairy
Fighting
desu
imo
>>
>>26395669
>>26395719
I like these, but they have weird dynamics because some of the types don't also resist the other, in addition to being super-effective against it. Is there any other trio of types with the exact same relation as fire, grass and water?
>>
Ice
Rock
Grass

It would work for the rock paper scissors thing but I know it's not a very exciting combo
>>
>>26395624
Electric, Steel, Flying.

>mammal starter that evolves into the Special types
>reptile starter that evolves into the Physical types
I'm strangely down for this
>>
Fairy, Fighting, Steel
>>
>>26396240
Mmmm oh yeah I'm all about this.
I'd start every game with a Vaporeon and the Flying Lizard.
>>
Fairy /Dark
Steel /Psychic
And Fighting
But fighting has a gimmick ability that changes it's second type into Dark, Steel or Ghost depending on foe's main type, visualy it's represented by different fighting stances
>>
>>26396977
>Rock -> Psychic
wut
>>
>>26396977
YOU NEED
TO RESIST
AS WELL AS BE SUPER EFFECTIVE AGAINST
>>
>>26396095
I think that's the only one that is a complete circle.
>>
>>26395624

Dark
Psychic
Dragon
>>
>>26396571
Ice only resists itself, and Grass doesn't resist Rock.
>>
>>26395624
Dragon
Dragon
Dragon
>>
>>26397964
psychic, fighting, dark

ice, ground, steel

flying, grass, rock
>>
desu im fine with g/f/w I just wish they had more variable secondary types
>>
>>26398002
Ice only resists itself, Ground is not on its list of resistances.

Grass does not resist rock.

Dark is immune to Psychic, not resistant to it.
