Type combinations you wish to see

[tacopill]

What Pokemon Type combinations do you wish to see, but have yet to be in a game?

Note: even though Type-combos are order specific, please don't recommend something you know game freak won't do, like a Flying-Bug, a Flying-Dark, a Flying-Dragon, a Flying-Electric, a Flying-Fighting, a Flying-Fire, a Flying-Ghost, a Flying-Grass, a Flying-Ground, a Flying-Ice, a Flying-Normal, a Flying-Poison, a Flying-Psychic, a Flying-Rock, a Flying-Steel, a Flying-Water Pokemon. Also, no *-normals either.

Ghost-Fire, I didn't know the order of types made a difference

I didn't know the order of types made a difference

I'm not sure why it does, but the idea is signification enough for all the type pages on bulbapedia to distinguish them.

A few things I would like to say:

There is no difference in the order of the types. I'm almost positive Bulbapedia does that to simply make it easier to read.

Most of the combos you listed not to list are already present, just with flying as the secondary type. In fact, it has been paired with everything except fighting.

Dark/Steel

[tacopill]

If that's true, then this line (and similar lines found around bulbapedia) are meaning less:

"No Pokémon with Psychic-type as its primary type has a unique type combination. The same is vacuously true of Flying-type, since no Pokémon have it as their primary type." - Source

[mtn_otter]

I apparently wasn't clear. The order of the types has no effect on defenses, stats, or anything else. It only changes the order in which the types appear when the Pokémon is being viewed. Its only used to identify what someone is looking for when they want, say, a grass type. It just narrows down the options.

So Poochyena, for example, is just as fire-type as Heatran.


The first part of that sentence may seem redundant at first, but further thought reveals it as the best way to phrase that particular statement. In the second sentence, the word vacuously seems not to be doing anything, though it is otherwise perfectly true.

[tacopill]

Ok, but Poochyena isn't fire....

And if it doesn't make a difference, i hope they introduce flying-as-a-primary-type, to prove it as such.  I mean, what's the likelihood of there being no flying-normal if they are equal to normal-flying? It defies probability (or, at least my understanding of it)

(I am not doubting your statement, i just find it odd).

[mtn_otter]

Did I say Poochyena? I probably meant Houndour. For some reason, I get them confused.

And if anything groundbreaking happens with Flying, I think it will be putting it by itself.  But they probably won't until they can think of something that can only possibly be Flying type. In fact, as far as I know, it holds the record for most existing combinations, with everything except itself and Fighting

I also want some more Electric combos

[tacopill]

i'd like to see fire-combos, like fire-electric, fire-water (a vapor?) and especially fire-ghost.

[Level 3]

I want Ice combos.

Ice-dragon
Ice-Psychic
and Fire-Dragon and Electric-Dragon

[tacopill]

I want Ice combos.

Ice-dragon
Ice-Psychic
and Fire-Dragon and Electric-Dragon

ooo, electric-dragon sounds nice....

[Gamefreak75]

A Rock-Dragon or Rock-Electric sounds good.

[Matt]

Dragon/Fire would be cool. I always wanted one of those. I'd also like to see Bug/Psychic.

[Gamefreak75]

Well, Reshiram is confirmed to be a Fire/Dragon type.

[Lazor Shroom Midna Freak]

Electric-Ghost would be awesome. (Do they already exist?)

[Nickno]

Electric-Ghost would be awesome. (Do they already exist?)

Rotom is an Electric-Ghost. So, ya.

What I would like to see is a Fire/Water type. Now THAT would be interesting.

steam....

[Seritinajii]

Some more Fire combinations. Like Fire/Bug or Fire/Electric. Fire/Poison would be nice too.

Steel/Grass and Rock/Grass would be nice too. Maybe stone golem things with grass growing on them? Wait there's Lileep and Cradily.

[Blue Ninjakoopa]

While I don't have any I hope to see, I DID see information on a Bug/Fire-type. WTF?

On second thought, I'd kinda like to see an Electric/Fighting- or Ice/Fighting-type Pokemon.
