Fish? No. Shining? Meh. Shadow. Interesting....

I would like to see Light (as opposed to dark) and also maybe Space, or Galactic, or something.

I've heard of the following ideas, but I hate them all:
-Light
-Plasma
-Wood [ex. Sudowoodo]
-Fish [ex. Magikarp or Goldeen]
-Bird (That was a beta type in Gen-1)
-Space [ex. Clefairy]

They all belong to other types; Light is somewhat unique, as is plasma, but neither have a whole lot of existing Pokémon.

I kinda agree with Mag. No new types are really necessary.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see a nifty new type to hype about.
(Hehe, Lol, type to hype.)

Bird? Fish? No offense but those are already covered by Water and Flying. I see no need for new types at all. The only readon Dark and Steel were added was because Psychic was so broken in Gen. 1. The types are now balanced, and there is no need for a new one.

I agree with most of the above posters; although it would certainly be interesting to add a new type, there's no real need for it.

I strongly disagree, as the types now are well-balanced. They just need to add more fire, steel and dark Pokemon.

I'd like a Light type...
the Space idea is REALLY COOL >;D I've never thought of that,
but I really like that idea

I don't see the problem with more types... especially because they want to really "change" how Pokemon is looked at... adding another (more?) type(s) would be coolio ^_~

I think that there should be a crystal type. It's a fairly solid idea, since there can be many applications to crystal-type moves.


As for light: It's the perfect way to counter dark-type, but there would need to be a type that can overpower it, which I don't see happening.

This might be strange, but it could work...

How about Light has all of the strengths and weaknesses of Dark, but is super effective against Dark. Dark will also be super-effective against Light.

As I've said previously, Light-type should exist if only to counter Sableye and Spiritomb. It would be balanced by being weak to Normal types, especially since Normal moves can't get type trump multipliers off of any Pokemon..

Light type resembles normal type. Crystal is an awkward combination of rock and ice so I don't see the need for this type. We really don't need any new types.

They're not bad ideas though.

We've gone two generations with new Pokemon but no new types. I don't really see any need for new types. If they can think of one or two new good ideas that wouldn't mess up the type chart too much, I'm all for it, but none of those ideas I've seen make much sense.

Sableyes horribly underpowered and the only thing keep spiritomb usable in UU is that it has no weaknesses. If it had a 4x weakness to a new type it would go waaaaaaaaay down too NU. .-.

True, Sableye isn't a major threat.

Sorry, Sableyed.

If you think of it logically, Zorua/Zoroark should have been not dark if a new type was going to be introduced. I mean, they would have introduced the first Pokemon with a new type to let us think about it. I think that more combination will be given, like fire/water Pokemon, or something like that.

Light? Maybe....
Plasma? Why?
Wood? Extra pointless!
Fish? Weak to fishing rods obviously!
Bird? No. Just, no.
Space? Although cool sounding, only a few Pokemon will be in this type, if in game. (Clefairy family, Solrock, Lunatine... misspelled? Deoxys, Jirachi)

Weak to Poison too. Poison is only good against one thing and is thus rather awful offensively...

I think we need a new type. They're still kind of unbalanced. Maybe something weak to Bug or Posion. And something else good on Normal, Blissey and Snorlax need some balancing, especially Snorlax.

Fixed~!

But seriously, normal types are on the weak side.

Pokemon types that resist normal type attacks: Steel, rock

Types that normal types resist: NOOOOTHIIIING

Super effective types that hit normal hard:
Fighting

Pokemon that get hit by normal types hard:NOOOOOOOOOOOTHING!

Yea, as you can see normal type is on the weak side. And fighting types moves are INCREDIBLY common. Practically every pokemon can learn a strong fighting move now like Superpower, or close combat, and as of HG and SS almost every pokemon can learn low kick through move tutor, which brings strong walls like snorlax to its knees. Tis a grim world out there for normal types.

I think adding a new type or two would be pretty neat, but I can't come up with anything that either doesn't sound absurd or isn't covered by the other types.

The only thing I've got is if they officially endorse a Pokemon with the Unknown Type (It's really annoying to say '???' in conversation)

I'm not sure what it could be strong against, but it would be nice to see something weak against Normal Type moves, like Lite suggested.

How about the ???-type has no weaknesses or resistances?
Every attack is normally effective.

That shouldn't be it.
IF (and its a big "If"), there is a weakness between ice and water, ice should be weak to water because its as if you just put an ice cube in a glass of water.

It melts over time.

YOu'd expect there to be a relationship between ice and water, yet, there are some ice types that arent water.

Unless you count Arceus with the plate that makes it flying.

What about a fighting-flying type?
Fighting type is the only type that isn't part of flying yet.

Yes there is... I'm not sure what it is though...

Natu and Xatu are the only Psychic flying types.

Light. One Pokemon, the legendary, for Pokemon White.

Maybe a "Dusk" Pokemon to counter it in Pokemon Black.

Super-effective hits for Light/Shadow attacks on only each other, normal hits on other Pokemon.

Weaknesses are only to each other. Both have same stats so both can counter each other (all a matter of luck and how you train).

Nuff said.

When I was little I made my own types, like Spike, Rainbow and Space.

But no, I don't think they should add more types. It's probably going to ruin the series.

Hence the name 'normal...'

That aside, I will need to agree with the people that say that there is no more need for another type. Besides, ideas such as 'fish' or 'bird' do not truly fit into the traditional form of the Pokemon 'types.' Note how the other Pokemon types are all elemental. Such as Water, Electric, Steel, etc. There are a couple debatable ones such as Psychic, Ghost, and Dark.

Fish and bird are classifications, not types. (Something you would see in a Pokedex entry.)

Thanks for the time,

We should have a cheeze type.

Fo' real. I'm serious guys.
It would be cool if we had a monster type, or a sound type, but I doubt it.DX

I would really find it both unlikely and a bit stupid to have an extra type added. "Light", "Holy"... the spiritual counterpart of Dark is Normal. It doesn't have anything in it that opposes Dark, but it's fine the way it is. Arceus and Regigigas were great to see that there can be Normal legendaries too. I see no point in adding any extra types to the game.

If any type is to be added to the game, it's Light type. It's still not likely, but it's there. Instead of that rivalling Dark, they would have to make another type, like Dusk (As Justjack said). The possibility of them adding two more types is low, however.

Yea, as you can see normal type is on the weak side. And fighting types moves are INCREDIBLY common. Practically every pokemon can learn a strong fighting move now like Superpower, or close combat, and as of HG and SS almost every pokemon can learn low kick through move tutor, which brings strong walls like snorlax to its knees. Tis a grim world out there for normal types.

Crystal would be pretty cool. The only thing is, there might not be enough Pokemon in the category. If they make new types, add a few more Pokemon, too.

I, personally would like to see the type "sound" introduced. Sure, it'd require a bit of work to re-balance the type chart, re-code the game to change some of the moves' and pokemons' types, but I think it be great. Off the top of my head, Exploud, Chimecho, Mr. Mime, and Jigglypuff are all candidates for the type. It would cut down on the obscene number of normal types in the game... a little.

OH. MY. GOSH. That would be AWESOME! Also Whismur could be a candidate. The moves could be such as: Explode, Ring, Hoot, Scream, Screech, etc. Totally!

U figure at least 1 new type would be made, cause the move curse has a ???? type and they should fill in that ???? as a real type. That way arceus can have that last 18th plate that they made as a backup data in case that type was put on it.

You forget, Curse isn't the same for all Pokemon.

Curse lowers a user's stat by 1 and raises the Attack and Defense by 1. Except for Ghost Pokemon. When a Ghost Pokemon uses Curse, the opponent Pokemon suffers a Curse effect, which slowly eats away at HP after cutting the user's HP in half.

And a "Light" Pokemon is a little stupid. They entire reason the Dark type was made was to counter the non-stop power of Psychic. Sound would be interesting, but what are the pros and cons of the type?

You misunderstand.

Example: Fire is weak against water, but strong against grass.
What will Sound be strong again? Weak again?

Sound could be a dragon-esque type. You know, nothing's really weak to it, nothing's really resistant to it (dragon is weak to dragon and steel is resistant to dragon, but other than that, the type itself is pretty much a neutral-coverage type). What would the point of it be then? Nothing really, I suppose... other than if your pokemon knew a sound-type move you wouldn't need to worry about not being able to hit an opponent. That, and shock wave is an electric type move just because it has the word "shock" in it. Shock waves don't have anything to do with electricity. It's just something that irks me.

I understand actually, I had very little time to write up what I was going to say.

Okay, so, first, I will answer your question. It would probably be strong against bug (those poor bug types), rock (see an exploud in a cave), Psychic (possibly for the same reason bug is super effective against psychic), and fighting. It would be 'not very effective' against steel (sound-proof rooms), Electrodes and voltorbs, Water, and ineffective against ground (Although ground already has one of those ineffective things, so it may only be not very effective).

Sound would be weak against ground, steel, and sound.

Now, to the second point I wanted to make. I personally think the current type set is quite effective and fine as it is. I am personally quite adamant about keeping the type set as it is.

I hope to not come across too negatively...

Yeah... Dragon is very weak against Ice. Sound would be a nice type, but there's huge debate of strengths and weaknesses. And suggesting Sound would be Dragon-esque is a little too much. That'll put all the previously suggested Sound Pokemon (Whismur, Chimecho, etc.) would be bumped up a huge notch.

Would it really be so horrible to give chimecho a promotion ? How often do you see people running around screaming, "FEAR MAH CHIMECHO!"

Sound is a keen weapon. The US army uses it sometimes to cripple opposing forces. And if you pop your eardrum, there's no repairing it. I would fear something like that.

Yes, but what types would resist it/be strong against it?
Maybe Rock/Steel/Ground would resist it and Water would be strong against it.(Water vs. a Sound System = destroied sound system)

I'm trying to think, but Sound is tricky. Water does distort sound, but sound isn't really a thing to test on, like Fire or Water would be.

I think the reason a sound system is destroyed by water is because of the circuitry (if you're talking about just dumping a bucket of water on a sound system). Maybe psychic could be weak to sound. Telepathy and telekinesis are things usually associated with deep concentration, and what's more irritating than constant, ear-splitting noise?

Hmmm Sound does seem like a good type with the logic of what it can beat and what it is weak to! But it would be kinda difficult to base a Pokemon off of sound... stuff like Grass and Rock is easy, but making a Pokemon that looks like sound seems kinda tricky.

Well theres already a few in existence like chatot, kricketune and exploud that can be part "sound." It would probably just be a very little used type though.

I doubt Sound will be a real type, since it's just so confusing.

A digital type. Porygon would fit in it for sure.

Oil type. It could have some balanced qualities. Weak against fire and strong against water, for example.

Wouldn't Oil fall under Poison? Grimer and Muk, maybe? (Sludge, oil, same thing to me.)

It would bother me to see an Oil-type Pokemon in nature. It'll be hunted to death.

Are you a mind reader? I have been thinking of a machine type. Such as Bronzong. Water would short it, being super effective on it. Electricity could power it, giving it HP. Fire could melt it, being super effective on it.

Why do we need a Machine-type when we have Steel-type? That's like suggesting a Flower-type even when we have a Grass-type.

I think the two best canidates are sound and light.

Light moves are effective against: Dark, Ghost,
Light moves are not effective against: Water, Grass
Light types resist: Dark, Ghost, Psychic
Light types are weak against: Grass, Water

Sound moves are effective against: Rock, Ice, Psychic, Dark
Sound moves are not effective against: Steel, Water
Sound types resist: I really can't think of anything
Sound types are weak against: Water, Steel

I hope this helps a little ^_^

I think that's what they were going for, but since Psychic is better to personate, they went with Psychic types. Light could be personated... but it'll be more religious than anything, and that's not cool, unless they have a religion based around Arceus. =3
