What new type/type combination would you like to see?

[bob266]

I would like a fire/ice pokemon. It would be pretty cool! (or hot!)

[HottSushiz]

lol. I'm pretty sure there was a thread about this but oh well.

My wish list is

~Dragon/Steel

~Dragon/Ice

~Steel/Ice

Basically any variants of Dragon, Ice, and Steel which are mah fav types. At least one of my wishes have been granted in Black and White.

I have a few:

Fire / Dark

Dark / Fighting

Water / Fighting

Ice / Poison

Steel / Poison

Flying / Poison

[wraith89]

Dark / Fire = Houndour, Houndoom

Dark / Fighting = Zuruzukin.

Water / Fighting = Poliwrath and Kerudio

Poison / Flying = One of the most common Pokemon in the game is this type. Can you guess what it is?

Strange. I believe there was a thread like this before. I will merge it if I find it.

I found this on the Black and White forum discussions. It used to be a discussion on what new types you would like to see, but kind of turned into a discussion about what the new types in the 5th Gen are.

As for a new type combination, maybe normal/ghost? I mean that would have pretty good defensive typing with only one weakness and three types that can't even touch it.

I found that topic too. However, I'm still in debate whether it should be merged or not because it was merely speculation and all.

Normal/Ghost also has another notable advantage: it is immune to both Ghost + Fighting, which is currently the only two types that allow for unresisted coverage. It also gives one a reason to run both Ghost and Dark moves if that were the case, but they'd probably forgo that for a powerful STAB move or something.

I'm still waiting for my Ice/Fire or Water/Fire...

Water/Fire Would also be cool. What about seeing a Water/Ice type, also?

Which Pokemon are Water/ Ice? All I can think of is Sealeo and Walrein.

[stef]

Cloyster, Lapras and Dewgong are all the Water/Ice types out there, as well as Walrein of course. Most of them are from first gen but they are still pretty good in my opinion. I would say Water by itself is more common, and it has much better typing defensively (with fewer weakness' and more resistances).

[Greencat]

I know there is Dialga, but I'd like to see another Dragon/Steel.

Another Steel/Psychic would be cool and Steel/Dark.

[Sheimi]

I would love to see a Grass/Ghost and a Water/Fire combo or maybe even an Fire/Grass Somehow...

[SmellTheBurningEmber]

I'm still waiting for an amazing Grass/Dragon or Dragon/Grass dual-typing. Mainly I want this type for the possibility of it's design. Design-wise... It would be effing fantastic.

It may actually be good competitively, as well. STAB Dragon is good for neutral coverage and STAB Grass could really bring those bulky Water-types to their knees. This is, of course, if it's an offensive Pokémon. Game Freak could troll and make this a defensive Pokémon (which would probably suck, given it's types).

So, yeah. Grass/Dragon or Dragon/Grass. ~STBE
