Gen 7 is already the most creative gen based on these types alone.
bug fairy should have been in gen 6. It's so damn obvious.
Still needs more opposing types combos.
>>27085583
Are you mentally challanged? This is an innevitibilty/necessity not a creative decision. Fuck you and your mother.
>>27085583
calm the fuck down
this is not the first gen to have duel type
Needs moar:
Grass/Electric
Normal/Ghost
>>27085633
You mean fighting type.
Have they made a bug dragon yet?
>>27085583
>not electric/psychic
>not normal/steel
>not normal/rock
>>27085633
No but they're finally thinking outside of the box instead of hurr durr dragon/flying, fire/fighting etc
If you told me we'd ever see a normal/dragon in a pokemon game I'd tell you to go fuck yourself
>>27085611
I always thought Vivillon would've been absolutely perfect for this. Aw well.... Still my favorite early caterpillar line....
>>27085633

You can pick five new type combinations to appear in Sun & Moon from the following list. Which five do you choose?
>Poison/Psychic
>Bug/Psychic
>Bug/Dragon
>Bug/Dark
>Fighting/Ghost

If it's not a dragonfly then I don't want to live on this gay earth anymore

>>27085806
If nothing else, I'm thankful they finally made Normal/other a regular typing. It's always bugged me how it was rarely used on anything but flying types.

Dude do you even know for how much did we expected a Steel/Ghost pokémon?
Basically Every player who played back in Dp days wanted a Grass/steel, after we got him, we wanted a Steel/Ghost.
It's not a case indeed if both Ferrothorn and Aegislash are olympus-tier pokémon.
>no inanimate objects with eyes yet
>no generic pink blobs yet
Hopefully it will be the most creative, it's looking good so far
>>27085787
Poison/Psychic evolution or mega evolution for Arbok. He ends up looking like the cobra that covered Buddha; ability changes to levitate.
>>27085787

opposing?
do you mean like just one type being weak to the other? cause that's like every other combo. even fucking grass/poison and rock/ground.
>Steel/Ghost
>Dark/Psychic
>Electric/Normal
Gen 6 is already the most creative gen based on these types alone.
It'll be hard to top the amount of new types Unova had
>>27085697
They've edged us so many fucking times on the Bug/Dragon front
>Introduce an antlike Pokémon which evolves into a dragonfly. Dragon but no Bug type.
>Introduce an evolution to Yanma the dragonfly Pokémon which requires Ancient Power to evolve. Looks draconic aaaand nope. Bug/Flying.
>introduce a new Dragon type based off a snail and covered in slime. It could be anything!
>Nope, pure Dragon.
>Bug/Fire
>Ground/Electric
>Normal/Grass
Gen 5 is already the most creative gen based on these types alone.
>Poison/Legendary
Come on Nintendo, it's been seven generations, please just give us one. Just one.

"Mythical pokemon Marshadow, Psychic/Poison."
-John Gamefreak III
am I the only one who'd prefer for them to make some proper pokemon of already existing combos where there is still a ton of unexplored potential rather than a completely new combo that's done for the sake of it being new?
for example, there is so many type combos that seem natural and obvious, that one would expect there to be a handful of unrelated pkmn of so far, yet there is just one or even just covered by a certain forme of a pkmn
-electric+fire
-grass+ground
-rock+fighting
-dragon+fire
-fire+steel
-poison+flying
etc.
>>27085583
>slapping two types together
>the pinnacle of creativity
>>27086142
Probably combinations like Fire/Ice which are polar opposites.
>>27086311
dragon/fire is one of those things that you can't over do because it's too obvious. That's what makes Reshiram/megaCharizard special.
>>27086311
Not to mention Bug/Water, Bug/Ground, Bug/Ghost, and Water/Steel. Bug/Water and Bug/Ground are exclusive to prevolutions, too. It's ridiculous.
>>27086402
Wormadam says hi.
>>27086402
bug/ground definitely seems like a missed opportunity
>>27086231
>>27086277
It would be cool if Marshadow is a poison type scorpion so the three main legends make up the three main animals that make up a manticore
>>27086412
Oh, I forgot that it had different forms. We should still have more, though.
>>27085983
No....if anything he would be poison/Dark what with Bite/Crunch/Sucker Punch
>>27086477
And strong jaw too
>>27085583
true, but don't forget the new abilities
>>27085873
>>27086110
too badYanmegawill never be Bug/Dragon ;_;
>>27085729
Imagine if it was a Bug/Fairy with Pixelate. I don't think Pixelate was called that in Japanese but the pun is absolutely delicious.
>>27086161
you are not wrong, though
gen VI was the most creative gen after I. Unsurprisingly gen V is the worst
>>27085792
I hate Normal/X typings. They were a mistake. it makes no fucking sense unless there is explicitly some sort of duality motif or something. That includes normal/flying. What about Heliolisk makes it a normal-type? The only one that I feel kind of makes sense that wasn't a duality related thing was Bibarel.
>>27085787
>normal/ghost
>poison/steel
>fairy/fire
>fire/grass
>dragon/fighting
Normal/Ghost - bedsheet ghost
Poison/Steel - Spider, prey for Salandit
Fairy/Fire - Will o' wisp
Fire/Grass - Chilli pepper
Dragon/Fighting - for the furfags.
>>27086612
>ground/rock
>rock/ground
>>27086612
This chart makes no sense whatsoever. If Electric/Steel is considered gen II because of Magnemite/Magneton not having the types until then, and the same for all the Fiary combos until gen VI, then Electric/Ice,Fire,Grass should be gen V since Rotom's formes were Electric/Ghost until then.
>>27086428
>manticore
>leon + bat + scorpion
>not leon + bat + dragon
>implying Zygarde isnt the third legendary
>>27085787
There's less unused combos than I thought. They may need to add new types in Gen VIII.
>>27085927
Rotom is like half of the unused electric combinations by itself, it doesn't count
>>27086834
Rotom changing types was a mistake
>>27086755
>leon + bat + dragon
Bitch the manticore has a scorpion tail and the bat aspect would already fill the role of a dragon
Do you really want me to go Richard on your ass and pull out a wikipedia article or some shit

Shame for the overabundance of three stage monotypes.
>>27087211
im callin you on bug/steel but everything else checks out
>>27087029
And someone here told me that Fairy/Dark never should happen. Fuck that guy/gal.
Also, myabe they could make Mega-Flygon Bug/Dragon.
>>27085890
Gen 4 plays it pretty safe except for Rotom adding a ton of Ghost/Types.

> Legendaries count for unique typings
into the trash it goes
What are some typings there are enough of as is?
> Rock/Ground
> Water/Ground
> Grass/Poison
> Normal/Flying
> Fire/Fighting
> Dragon/Flying
> Bug/Flying
> Rock/Water
> Water/Flying
>>27087306
Scizor and Forretress already existed though
>>27086996
It's typically well known for be represented as having a scorpion tail
>>27086834
>>27087314
Why would they not count? They're still pokemon.
>>27087549
Because Legendaries are one-off experiments that aren't interesting due to their overpowered nature and GFs almost forced need to add uniqueness to them through unique combinations. Same gen having Steel/Water/Ghost Dragon legendaries isn't proper exploration of the type combinations'.
>>27085583
I really wish they gave Drampa Dunsparce eyes and made it his final evo, and gave Dunsparce a middle stage.
>>27085787

Give me a Fairy/Dragon combo and I'm sold.

this has water/rock in gen 3 but isnt corsola gen 2?
>>27087598
I kind of agree with you but mostly see this fitting for megas such as sceptile and Altaria

>>27085727
You're a fucking retard. Every gen has weird type combos. Objectively gen 1 had the weirdest type combos, with psychic/water, poison/ghost, ground/psychic, fighting/water and ice/psychic being weird as fuck.

>>27085862
This, by gen III there were only three different normal type combinations: normal, normal/flying and normal/psychic. If you exclude Girafarig then you've only got two. Gamefreak seemed pretty obsessed with giving us unique type combinations in Gen VI, I'm hoping this continues in S/M beyond the few pokemon we've seen so far.

Pokemon is not made in Murrca or britbongia. Japan doesn't think of dragonflies as dragons, I'm not sure if the link to dragons even exists in any other language than English.

They're one of the few flying bugs to noticeably predate on other bugs, I think that may draw some connection.
Mega Arcanine (Fire/Electric) - Magnetic (summons magnet rise)
Mega Machamp - Coverage (attacks cannot fail, if a pokemon has a status condition it will change for the new one mega machamp gives)
Mega Snorlax - Comatose
Mega Dragonite - Multiscale
Mega Noctowl - (Flying/Psychic) - Magic Bounce
Mega Crobat - Corrosion (not sure what it does)
Mega Forretress - (Steel) - Overcoat
Mega Kingdra - Contrary
Mega Ludicolo - Drizzle
Mega Delcatty - (Normal/Fairy) - Overcoat
Mega Milotic - (Water/Fairy) - Pixilate
Mega Jirachi - Sheer Force
Mega Vespiquen - Block Order (Teammate will receive all attacks)
Mega Mismagius - (Ghost/Fairy) - Fairy Aura
Mega Honchcrow - Dark Aura
Mega Musharna - Comatose
Mega Excadrill - Coverage (explained above)
Mega Whimsicott - Prankster
Mega Hydreigon - Multiscale
Mega Volcarona - Drought
Mega Chesnaught - Thorn Armor (deals 1/4 of total HP of damage to a foe using a physical attack on it)
Mega Delfox - Magic Trick (Held items of opponents are traded among them)
Mega Greninja - Secret Shuriken (All physical attacks get a boost of x1.5)
Mega Goodra - Dazzling (prevents priority moves to hit).

They fuck up Golurk being ground. It should be rock/ghost and have a more creative way with ground/ghost.
Alternatively, having both ground and rock is a bit confusing.
>>27085583
Creative ≠ Unique
Every gen introduces a few new typo combos... of course, we'll run out eventually but they can always add new types before that happens.
